How do I write a community code of conduct for my Gather community?

Creating a community code of conduct is essential for setting clear expectations. Before launching your community, outline the rules that will guide user behavior. This includes what is not allowed, such as spam or harassment, and any specific terms or activities that are prohibited. Make sure to explain the consequences of violating these rules. Post the code of conduct prominently in your community, and consider pinning it to the top of a topic for easy access. Regularly review and update the code as needed, and involve your legal team if necessary. For more details, check out theZendesk Community Code of Conduct.
