These rules and standards exist for one reason: to protect a high-trust space where time-limited (often employed) entrepreneurs can build a safety net without drama, risk, or noise. If a rule is broken, we act quickly, for the sake of peace and protection. ✅ No Attacking People/Companies What this means: Don’t name-and-shame, mock, rally hate, or send the community after any person, employer, client, or brand. Purpose: Keeps this space constructive and safe. We solve problems; we don’t create new ones. ✅ No Cold DMs / Self-Promotion What this means: No unsolicited DMs to sell, recruit, “network,” or ask favors. - No pitching your services, offers, affiliate links, lead magnets, events, or “DM me” posts/comments. - If collaboration/promo is ever allowed, it will be in a specific thread opened by Salette/admins. Purpose: Protects members from being hunted and keeps the community about building, not being marketed to. ✅ Make an effort What this means: Before posting, do at least one of these: - search the group - read the pinned posts - try a first draft / first prompt / first attempt - bring context and what you’ve already tried Purpose: Keeps the lab high-signal and respects everyone’s limited time. ✅ Keep Work Stuff Redacted What this means: Do NOT post: - company/client names, coworker/manager names, or identifying details - internal docs, screenshots, dashboards, emails, tickets, SOPs, metrics - proprietary processes, trade secrets, or anything you’re not authorized to share What’s allowed: - your perspective, your lesson learned, your decision process - redacted scenarios (“a past employer,” “a client,” “a teammate”) - general patterns (“here’s what tends to happen when…”) Purpose: Protects you, protects others, and keeps potentially litigious content out of the community. ✅ Protect Lunch-Hour CEO IP What this means: Content created by Salette/LHC (playbooks, prompts, frameworks, templates, stories) is for your execution. No reposting, reselling, repackaging, teaching as your own, or claiming it as yours.
