1 commit being made: "In the "What is Not Allowed?" section, "Anyone under the age of 13", despite the trade-off being less concise, I made the rules more emotional. Also, added "diverse" to the Pledge section."
Why:
There was room to improve the tone of the Code of Conduct in the “What is Not Allowed?” section. The original phrasing was legally correct but emotionally flat. This update introduces a more empathetic, human-centered explanation regarding age restrictions while maintaining compliance. Additionally, I added the word “diverse” to the Pledge to better reflect inclusive values. I know that GitHub tries to be as emotional as possible, but this is 1 minor improvement.
Closes: No related issue — this is a minor tone and clarity improvement.
What's being changed (if available, include any code snippets, screenshots, or gifs):
No structural or functional documentation changes were made; this PR is purely tone-focused.
