The forum is a place where people with poles help each other and talk. The rules are short and come from our principles.
- Everyone is welcome. Fast or slow, first day or twentieth year. We do not mock anyone and never tell anyone “you are doing it wrong”. We would rather show how it works.
- Be polite. Sharp opinions yes, insults no.
- Experience as experience. Write what you went through as your own experience. When you claim something general, add a source.
- Nothing for sale. Advertising and offers only when labelled and agreed with the editors. Hidden recommendations for a reward do not belong here.
- Brands yes, but fairly. Criticism is fine when it is backed by facts.
- Privacy. Do not publish other people’s contact details or photos of people without their consent.
- When something does not belong here. The editors may hide a post that breaks the rules and will always say why.
How trust and independence grow here is explained on the page Wanderer, Companion, Guide.
