--- title: Community Guidelines --- We created HackMD to be a community where you can work together, share knowledge, interact, and form relationships. Community guidelines ensure these goals and make it a place where we can all feel proud to belong. When someone violates these guidelines, our Community Growth team may take several steps to enforce them. These steps are: - removing content; - suspending workspaces; - removing accounts; - reporting to law enforcement. ## Respect other HackMD users - Do not share any content that violates anyone's intellectual property. - Do not spam other users with comments. - Protect anyone under the age of 18 from adult content with spoiler alert (`||spoiler||`). - Do not spam. ## Uphold a healthy platform - Do not publish content that is primarily aimed for search engine indexing. - Do not publish content that is solely for advertising. - Do not publish content that provokes violence. - Do not publish child sex content. - Do not promote or sell dangerous or harmful goods. For example, weapons, ammunition, drugs, and controlled substances.
