Title: General Expectations for Conduct
---
In addition to the general [policies](pages/policies) governing behaviour when using freenode, we strongly encourage all participants to adopt the [channel
guidelines](pages/changuide) and [philosophy](pages/philosophy) to help keep the network a friendly and productive place.

In particular, we would urge all users to keep the following in mind:
- We expect all users to act in good faith at all times, and this includes assuming the same of others. Where another user's behaviour admits several
  interpretations, work on the basis of the most charitable one until you have strong evidence to the contrary.
- freenode aims to be welcoming and inclusive, and so we do not accept any form of discrimination based on gender, race, sexuality or beliefs.
