Rules & Guidelines

Read this entire page before posting. Ignorance of the rules is not an excuse. Violations will result in warnings, temporary bans, or permanent removal at admin discretion.

Last revised: 02/20/2026 | 10 rules


#Rule
1

No Snitching

What happens on the board stays on the board. Do not share internal discussions, member identities, or project details with outsiders.

2

No Skids

If you can't explain how it works, don't post it. Copy-pasting other people's work without understanding it will get you removed.

3

Respect the Hierarchy

Admins and senior members have earned their position. Follow their guidance in project channels. Disagreements go to DMs, not public threads.

4

No Unnecessary Drama

Personal beefs stay personal. Don't bring outside conflicts into the community. If you have a problem with someone, handle it privately or involve an admin.

5

Quality Over Quantity

Don't spam the board with low-effort posts or half-baked ideas. If you're going to contribute, make it count. One good post beats ten garbage ones.

6

OPSEC is Your Responsibility

We provide the tools, you provide the discipline. Use PGP for sensitive communication. Don't post personally identifiable information -- yours or anyone else's.

7

Contribute or Leave

This is not a spectator community. Lurking is fine temporarily, but members are expected to contribute to projects, discussions, or documentation.

8

No Selling / Advertising

This is not a marketplace. Do not advertise services, sell access, or shill products. Relevant tool recommendations in context are fine.

9

Credit Where Due

If you build on someone else's work, credit them. Plagiarism is treated the same as being a skid. Attribution is non-negotiable.

10

Admin Decisions are Final

If an admin makes a call, that's the end of the discussion in public. You can appeal in private once. Repeated appeals or public complaining will result in removal.


TL;DR:

Don't be stupid. Don't be a snitch. Don't be a skid. Contribute something useful. Respect the community and its members.
