If you don't have an IRC client, you can also use
`Freenode's web chat <http://webchat.freenode.net/>`_, but please, don't close
the browser window too soon. Just enter ``#kivy`` in the channels field.
**Some #kivy guidelines**
* Be polite and respectful towards other users.
* Please use English for all messages and in any code posted.
* Do not post large log/code copy and pastes to the channel, instead use a site
such as http://pastebin.com/ or https://gist.github.com/ .
* If you have a question, be clear and succinct to ensure the fastest response.
Don't just say "it doesn't work" or “help”. Instead, describe what you
expected to happen and what actually happened. Show code, pictures, or error
logs as necessary.
* If your code follows `PEP8 <http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/>`_
you will most likely receive a quicker answer.
* Try to lower the barrier to helping you as much as possible, if we need to
run your application, share it in one file like in
`this template <https://gist.github.com/Kovak/f5e1539c938c3595a54e>`_. Do not
share your entire application, share a simple example that showcases only the
issue you are experiencing.
* **Avoid topics that may make others uncomfortable or that are excessively
incendiary.** #kivy is a community for learning and troubleshooting. There
are other places for discussions on sex, drugs, politics, religion, and
anything else you can think of to talk about that could potentially be
uncomfortable or inflammatory in nature for others.
* **Also Avoid**:
* Racial epithets of any kind regardless of context.
* Excessive Swearing.
* Misogynist, misandrist, homophobic or transphobic behavior or attitudes.
