SOCIAL LOGIC & CONDUCT
This document defines the social logic of the Homebase. It is the defensive protocol that prevents the community from self-destructing. Participation in this ecosystem is voluntary, but adherence to these principles is mandatory for those who wish to maintain their standing.
1. The Core Principle
We are a collective built on the foundation of the Ryoshi vision. The goal is to build a decentralized future. We do not look for leaders, and we do not expect handouts. We function as a machine. Every interaction you have within the War Room either strengthens this engine or creates unnecessary drag.
2. The Law of the Glow
Positive contributions build the ecosystem. We track this through the Merit system. When you provide high quality intelligence, research, or support to other members, the community recognizes your effort. The Glow represents your positive impact. High Glow scores grant you greater authority to shape the direction of the signals we prioritize.
3. The Law of the Rust
Disruptive behavior creates systemic weakness. We do not tolerate spam, repetitive low effort questions, or divisive toxicity. These actions generate Rust. When a user accumulates enough Rust, they are routed to the Static Log. This is a quarantine zone. A user in the Static zone has their signal muted and their access to core functions restricted.
4. The Path to Redemption
Rust is not a permanent state. It is a sign of imbalance. You can clear your status through two methods. You may perform a solidarity burn to reset your standing, or you can earn your way back by producing a sustained volume of verified, high value intelligence that the community approves. We do not believe in permanent exile, but we do believe in earned respect.
5. System Integrity
The Conduct Lock is final. By entering the Homebase, you agree to these terms. We do not debate the rules once they are enacted. The priority is the mission. If you are here to build, you will find a home. If you are here to tear down the work of others, you will find no traction here. We move as one.
