The Core Rules

1. "Don't Be Cruel." - Meow

   Explanation: This is the first and most important rule in the Catdets community, as laid down by Meow himself. It's all about keeping things kind, empathetic, and positive. Cruelty doesn't belong here—we're here to support each other.

2. Severe Accusations Require 'Severe' Evidence

   Explanation: Disagreements can happen, but if you're going to make serious claims, make sure you've got the facts to back them up. This rule ensures that we stay fair and focused on truth, not just assumptions or emotions.

   • Observe Proper FUD Etiquette: Avoid spreading fear, uncertainty, or doubt (FUD) without good reason.

   Examples: If you think someone isn't acting in the community's best interests, gather your evidence and present it in a way that invites dialogue, not conflict. And be open to the possibility that there might be more to the situation than meets the eye.
