General Usage Guidelines

The forums are designed to stimulate discussion.

Visit the forums to get more info, ask questions, or get ideas. To get the most out of the forums, please put serious thought into your questions and answers. The real benefit of the forums comes from asking specific questions so we or other forum members can provide you with additional guidance about the concepts covered in the different threads.

Staying on Topic

In order to ensure that the forums remain useful, please try to stay on topic.

The forums each have a specific goal, such as:

* Accountability Bar to help hold each other accountable to put what you’re learning into action.

* Resources for posting those resources you feel would benefit the community.

* Networking and Community Help for posting questions to the community or to do some general networking.

Feature Requests and Suggestions

Feature requests and site suggestions should be sent directly to the site administrators. Posting such requests and suggestions in the forums deters from the true purpose of the forums, and also makes them difficult to keep track of. When they are submitted via the contact form, we are able to enter them into our tracking system and evaluate and prioritize them.

Moderation

We have an active, helpful, and courteous community here, so the typical “be nice, don’t spam, etc.” guidelines fortunately have not been necessary. But we will edit or completely remove postings that do not comply with these guidelines.

A note regarding affiliate links within a post — we’d prefer that you didn’t use them. However, if you choose to use an affiliate link in the forums, it must be clearly disclosed as such, or it will be removed.
