Community Guidelines

This is a template document generated for testing and has not been reviewed by an attorney.

Welcome to the Lodge. This is the common room of the expedition: a place to ask questions, show what you built, trade tools, and enjoy the climb with good company. These guidelines keep it that way. They are short on purpose. Read them once and you will know how to behave here.

The short version

Be a good rope partner. Help people climb. Do not make anyone regret walking in.

What we expect

1. Keep it constructive. Critique work, not people. "This prompt fails when the input is long, try X" is climbing together. "This is stupid" is not.

2. Beginners are why we exist. No question is too basic. If a question looks obvious to you, you are exactly the right person to answer it kindly. Mockery of new climbers is the fastest way out of the Lodge.

3. Share honestly. Post your own work or clearly credit the source. If you used AI to build or write something, that is normal here, and saying so helps others learn. Do not present someone else's work as yours.

4. Stay on route per room. Fireside for talk and introductions, Route Room for course questions, Gear Shed for tools and AI news, Summit Log for things you built, the Bar for everything off-topic. Sherpas may move misplaced posts.

5. Promote sparingly and transparently. Sharing something you made, including something you sell, is fine in the Summit Log when it is genuinely show-and-tell. Repeated promotion, affiliate spam, cold pitches, or DM-style solicitation in threads is not. If you are affiliated with a product you recommend, say so.

6. Respect privacy. Do not post anyone's personal information, screenshots of private conversations without consent, or attempts to identify a member who uses a pseudonym. What members choose to keep private stays private.

What gets removed

Content in these categories is removed, and depending on severity may end your access on the first offense:

• Harassment, hate, or personal attacks of any kind
• Sexual content, graphic violence, or content unlawful where we operate
• Doxxing or sharing others' private information
• Malware, phishing, scams, or instructions intended to cause harm
• Plagiarized or infringing material
• Spam, flooding, engagement farming, or bulk self-promotion
• Deliberate misinformation presented as fact

How moderation works

Sherpas (moderators) and Lead Sherpas (admins) keep the Lodge in order. They can remove content, pin or lock threads, and restrict accounts. Moderation actions are logged.

• First issue: removal and a note explaining why.
• Pattern of issues: temporary restriction of posting.
• Serious or repeated violations: removal from the Lodge, and in severe cases, account termination.
• Severe violations (harassment, doxxing, malware, unlawful content) skip the ladder.

If you see something that does not belong, use "Flag for Sherpas" on the post. Do not pile on in the thread; flag it and move along.

Appeals

If you believe a moderation action was wrong, contact support@almora.tech within 14 days. A Lead Sherpa who was not involved in the original action will review it. One appeal per action.

Your content

You own what you post. By posting, you grant LearnStack a license to display and feature it as described in the Terms of Service (for example, spotlighting a Summit Log post in Dispatches). Removing your account removes your access; content you posted may remain in threads in tombstoned or attributed form as described in the Terms.

Changes

We may update these guidelines as the community grows. Material changes will be announced in the Lodge and take effect on posting. Continued use after changes means you accept them.

Climb well. Look after your rope team.
