[Sticky] 📜 The Code of Green: Community Rules

Welcome to the Turtletop Software community! We are here to talk games, hobbies, and strategy. To keep this place readable and safe, all users must follow the Code of Green.

🟢 1. The Golden Rule: Be Constructive

We are all pro-gamers and devs here.

• Do: Critique the game mechanics, report bugs, and disagree with ideas.

• Don't: Attack the person. "This level design is frustrating because..." is helpful. "The dev is an idiot" isn't.

🟢 2. Zero Tolerance (The Ban Hammer)

We use a "Shoot First, Ask Questions Later" policy for the following. Posting these results in an immediate, permanent ban:

• Illegal Content: Piracy, warez, leaked source code, or real-world threats.

• NSFW/Gore: Keep it rated G and Safe-for-Work. We are a software studio, not a shock site.

• Malware: Posting links to .exe files or suspicious downloads.

🟢 3. Support & Bug Reports

Help us fix things faster.

• Search First: Check if your bug has already been reported.

• Format Your Report: Don't just say "It broke." Tell us What you did, What happened, and What you expected to happen.

• No Backseat Dev: I love suggestions, but please respect that I have a roadmap that comes first. If you give a detailed explanation as to why a feature should be added, I just might do so. But don't act entitled; this isn't Reddit.

🟢 4. Self-Promotion

• You may share your own projects only if you are a trusted member and have explicit permission to do so.

• Joining just to drop a link to your YouTube channel or crypto scam will trigger our spam bots.

🟢 5. The "Sandbox" Protocol (Why your post isn't showing)

To protect the community, new accounts are restricted.

• Your first 3 posts must be manually approved by a moderator.

• You cannot post links or upload images until you are a Verified Member.

• Please be patient. Do not repost the same message 5 times.
