4. **Communicate findings** to the reporter (if appropriate)
5. **Take corrective action** as needed
### Consequences
Unacceptable behavior from any community member, including sponsors and those with decision-making authority, will not be tolerated. Anyone asked to stop unacceptable behavior is expected to comply immediately.
Depending on the severity and nature of the behavior, consequences may include:
- **Warning**: A private warning that the behavior is inappropriate
