COMMUNITY GUIDELINES

[Updated February 2025]

We take these Community Guidelines very seriously. By signing up for an Align Society Membership, all members agree to the following guidelines. By becoming an Align Society member, you agree to uphold these standards.

Members who violate these guidelines will receive one warning. Continued violations may result in immediate termination of membership.

Community Engagement and Conduct

  1. Respectful Communication: We foster a space of kindness, curiosity, and mutual respect. Disagreements are natural, but we expect conversations to remain respectful and constructive.

  2. Confidentiality and Trust: What’s shared here stays here. We honor each other’s vulnerability by maintaining confidentiality within the community.

  3. Positive Participation: This is a space for growth, not venting or negativity. We encourage thoughtful, productive contributions that uplift and inspire.

Promotion and Content Sharing

  1. Designated Promotion Spaces: We love celebrating your work! Share your events, offerings, and resources only in designated areas to maintain the integrity of our community interactions.

  2. Content Ownership and Attribution: Please respect intellectual property. If you share someone else’s content, give proper credit.

Collaboration and Support

  1. Give More Than You Take: Align Society thrives on generosity. When engaging with others, focus on giving value before seeking support.

  2. Constructive Feedback Only: If offering feedback, ensure it is kind, constructive, and asked for. Unsolicited critiques can hinder rather than help.

  3. Collaborative Spirit: We encourage genuine partnerships, collaborations, and peer-to-peer support. If you’re interested in someone’s work, approach with curiosity and generosity.

Boundaries and Safety

  1. No Unsolicited Promotions or Sales: We’re here to connect, not to pitch. Sharing your work is encouraged in designated spaces, but unsolicited DMs or posts focused solely on selling services or recruiting members are strongly discouraged.

  2. No Poaching or Recruitment: Our community is for genuine connections, not for hiring or client-hunting. If someone expresses interest in working with you, that’s great—but recruiting or “headhunting” is strictly prohibited.

  3. Zero Tolerance for Discrimination: We are an inclusive, welcoming space. Any behavior that discriminates against others based on race, gender, age, sexual orientation, or background will result in immediate removal.

Participation and Engagement

  1. Show Up and Engage: Align Society is more rewarding when you participate. Attend events, contribute to conversations, and share your insights—you get what you give.

  2. Be Open to Growth: Personal growth requires openness and curiosity. We encourage members to show up with a learning mindset and a willingness to explore new perspectives.
