Community Guidelines

Revoluminaries,

A few days ago we wrote about the principles that inspire us. Along with those principles, we have been doing a lot of thinking here about what guidelines we should try to maintain to ensure that everyone has a positive experience as part of the community.

We’ve started formulating our ideas, and I welcome your comments and feedback on how you would like the community to operate. After all, you are Revoluminary!

Community Guidelines

  1. We encourage everyone to welcome new members the way you would like to be welcomed if you were new to the community, and to be as inclusive as possible.
  2. We are inspired by ideas and we live by words. We actively encourage open and vigorous debate in the pursuit of understanding. However, we do not allow obscene, racist, sexually explicit or otherwise offensive content.
  3. We believe in the power of learning to inspire people to achieve and to understand. However members of our community may not suggest or encourage violent, illegal, illicit or otherwise inappropriate activity.
  4. We value intellectual property protections and ask that members have copyright ownership of all material shared on the Revoluminary platform.
  5. We respect the privacy of our community members, and ask that members refrain from sharing phone numbers, addresses, Social Security numbers, or other private information.
  6. Use good judgment, and have a wonderful time!

How do you intend to create a community? I mean if this is a tutoring site what is the community aspect going to be. This would seem to be a transaction site. Are there things happening that I am not seeing?
