Last Updated: 19/08/2024

Welcome to the Moneystalks Community! We are committed to fostering a positive, inclusive, and supportive environment where all members can engage, learn, and grow together. To ensure everyone has a great experience, we ask that you follow these guidelines.

1. Be Respectful

  • Treat all members with respect and kindness. Disrespectful behaviour, including harassment, discrimination, or bullying, will not be tolerated.
  • Refrain from using offensive, abusive, or inflammatory language. This includes derogatory comments based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability, or any other personal characteristic.

2. Contribute Constructively

  • Share your experiences and knowledge in a constructive manner. Offer help, ask questions, and provide feedback that benefits the community.
  • Avoid negative or destructive criticism. If you disagree with someone, do so respectfully and provide thoughtful reasoning.

3. Respect Privacy

  • Do not share personal or private information about yourself or others. This includes contact details, financial information, or any other sensitive data.
  • Respect the confidentiality of private conversations and direct messages. 

4. No Financial or Corporate Advice

  • Moneystalks is a space for education and support, not for providing financial or corporate advice. Any posts, comments, or messages that are deemed to offer specific financial or corporate advice will be removed by moderators.
  • Members are encouraged to seek professional advice from qualified individuals for any financial or corporate matters.

5. No Spamming or Self-Promotion

  • Avoid posting unsolicited advertisements, promotions, or spam. This includes excessive posting of links, repetitive content, or irrelevant material.
  • If you wish to share a product, service, or content that may benefit the community, please seek permission from the community administrators first.

6. Stay On-Topic

  • Ensure your contributions are relevant to the topic at hand. Off-topic posts can disrupt the flow of discussion and may be removed by moderators.
  • Use appropriate channels within the community for specific discussions. For example, if there are designated areas for introductions, questions, or resources, please use them accordingly.

7. Follow Community Moderation

  • Our moderators are here to help maintain a positive environment. Please follow their guidance and respect their decisions.
  • If you see content that violates these guidelines, report it to a moderator rather than engaging directly.

8. Protect Intellectual Property

  • Do not share content that you do not own or have permission to use. This includes copyrighted material, trademarks, or any other intellectual property.
  • When sharing content, give proper credit to the original creators or sources.

9. Foster Inclusivity

  • Be welcoming to new members. Help them feel included and supported as they join the community.

10. No Illegal Activity

11. Consequences of Violating Guidelines

  • Violations of these guidelines may result in warnings, temporary suspension, or permanent removal from the community, depending on the severity of the offense.
  • Posts or comments providing financial or corporate advice will be deleted immediately. Repeat offenders or those engaging in severe misconduct will be permanently banned from the community.
