Forum rules

Keep It Respectful Keep discussions civil. No harassment, hate speech, or personal attacks. Disagreements are fine, but debate the point, not the person. Do not engage in doxxing (revealing personal information).

Protect Anonymity Do not share personal identifying details about yourself or others, including companies. No naming and shaming. Keep discussions focused on industry trends and freelancer experiences without identifying individuals or companies.

No Solicitation or Self-Promotion This is a discussion space, not a marketplace. No self-promotion or solicitation for work. You may share resources if they are relevant and genuinely helpful to the discussion.

No Spam or Low-Value Content Avoid excessive posting of off-topic content. No AI-generated or copy-paste content with no added value.

Keep Discussions on Topic The forum is for freelancer-related discussions, including pay, clients, work struggles, industry trends, and related topics. Some off-topic discussions are allowed in designated spaces but should remain relevant to the community.

No Encouragement of Unethical Behavior Do not advocate for or promote actions such as scamming clients, violating contracts, or other unethical freelancing practices.

Reporting Issues If you see a rule violation, report it rather than engaging in arguments.

Rule Violations & Bans Evasion of previous bans or moderator actions. Failure to follow these rules may result in warnings, post removals, temporary suspensions, or permanent bans.

Immediate bans will be issued for harassment, hate speech, personal attacks, doxxing or revealing personal information about anyone, naming individuals, managers, or colleagues, encouraging unethical behavior (e.g., scamming clients, violating contracts).
