The Circle

Community guidelines

This is a private place for sincere inquiry, practice, and human connection. Membership is an invitation into mutual trust.

Engage in good faith

Challenge ideas directly without demeaning the person expressing them. Disagreement is welcome; harassment, threats, stalking, and targeted abuse are not.

Protect privacy

Do not share another member’s identity, messages, images, location, or personal information outside the Circle without explicit permission. Do not reproduce private discussions publicly.

Respect boundaries

No sexual harassment, unwanted advances, hate speech, exploitation, or encouragement of self-harm or violence. Members may decline any private conversation without explanation.

Keep the community lawful

Do not use the Circle to plan illegal activity, distribute malicious software, impersonate others, or share material you do not have the right to distribute.

Use reports thoughtfully

Report conduct that threatens the safety or integrity of the community. Moderators may remove content, lock discussions, suspend accounts, or revoke membership when necessary.

Preserve the purpose

Participate with honesty, curiosity, and respect for the sovereignty of others. Spam, commercial solicitation, and deliberate disruption are not permitted.
