Please read before posting
To ensure our Game, Forums, Discord and other Community channels are an enjoyable and informative space for everyone, please adhere to the following guidelines, including our testing agreement and privacy policy.
Please be respectful of everyone
Respect your fellow community members by not posting messages or communicating in a way that intimidates, bullies or insults other people. This includes harassment, griefing, trolling, flaming, and impersonation of another user or an official. Trolling is behaving in a way that is deliberately provocative, negative or controversial, with the intention of causing maximum disruption and argument, or to make the troll the centre of attention.
Bleeding Edge is a game for everyone, and we want to ensure the community remains a fun and safe environment, free from bullying, hatred, and harassment. Treat others as you would like to be treated, we know Bleeding Edge is an online competitive game so a little trash talk will happen here and there but please keep it clean.
Win or lose, be a good sport. No one likes trolling, so don’t do it. When you play Bleeding Edge you are the community, so make it a great one!
Be welcoming to new players
Remember we all had to start somewhere, and everyone was a new player once upon a time. Play your best and play to win but don’t forget you can really improve other players experience by being friendly and helpful, be it in the game or on the forums or any part of the Bleeding Edge community.
