Harassment is any behavior that intentionally annoys or alarms another person. This includes unwanted physical contact, following someone around, rude, suggestive, insulting, demeaning comments, or otherwise infringing on their personal liberties or space. Harassment will not be tolerated at Necronomicon.
If you approach someone for any reason and they tell you "no" or to leave them alone, your business with them is done. If you do not leave them alone as they have requested, your actions are grounds for a complaint of harassment.
If you feel that you are being harassed, report the matter immediately to convention staff or security. After you report the matter, one board member and two department heads, will meet with you in private for details. If the offense is serious enough, the police will be called in and the matter turned over to them.
We’ll then do our best to find the person doing the harassing. The person who was reported will be given a chance to offer their side of the story to the staff. The staff will then decide if the offender should be removed from the convention. The person who makes the report will be informed of the decision.
