Code of Conduct
Our Pledge
KnoxDevs is dedicated to providing an outstanding experience, to increase learning opportunities for all our members, regardless of age, body size, disability, ethnicity, gender identity and expression, level of experience, nationality, personal appearance, race, religion, sexual identity, or sexual orientation.
We do not tolerate harassment by members or of members in any form. Please treat both your fellow members and non-members with respect. Harassment is not appropriate for any venue. Group members violating these rules may be sanctioned or expelled from the group, at the discretion of the group organizers.
KnoxDevs organizers and volunteers will immediately escalate issues around safety, violence, or similar situations to the Knoxville Police Department.
Hiring
KnoxDevs is not a marketplace. You may not solicit members who you do not personally
know in direct messages for potential contract/hiring purposes. We have a #hiring channel
for the explicit purpose to help people in the Knoxville, TN region find local people
to hire and for local people to get hired. Companies outside the Knoxville MSA may not
post in #hiring unless the position is remote and the company already employs
Knoxville-based members.
Incident Resolution
Treat others as you would like to be treated. Simple disagreements should be resolved between the individuals concerned. Harassment or more serious issues should be escalated to a KnoxDevs organizer, who will immediately contact a KnoxDevs Board member responsible for assisting in resolution.
