I want to share a story around a decision I made yesterday.

I removed

@Al Anderson

from the group due to spam.

This community has a zero-spam policy, and I take that seriously. My goal is to protect this space so members aren’t flooded with unsolicited DMs or pitches from people who aren’t here to contribute.

That said, this has never been an anti-collaboration community.

After a conversation, AI Anderson shared that his intention was to learn about books and participate without spamming. I’m open to second chances when intentions are clear and boundaries are respected.

So here’s the line I’m drawing clearly:

👉 No spam.

No cold pitching.

No unsolicited DMs.

👉 Collaboration and community are welcome—when done openly and respectfully.

To support that, I’m opening this one thread for visibility and connection.
