Tilly The Coder Forum Guidelines & Rules

Welcome to the Tilly The Coder Forum 🎉
This space is for developers, learners, and creators to share knowledge, ask questions, and build community.
To keep things safe, helpful, and enjoyable, please follow these guidelines.

1. Be Respectful

• Treat everyone with kindness and professionalism.
• No harassment, hate speech, discrimination, or personal attacks.
• Debate ideas, not people.

2. Stay On Topic

• Post in the correct category.
• Use clear titles and provide context in your questions.
• Avoid derailing threads with unrelated discussions.

3. Share Knowledge

• Give detailed answers when you can.
• Provide links to official docs, code snippets, or resources when relevant.
• Credit sources if you’re quoting or adapting work.

4. No Spam or Self-Promotion

• Do not post spam, ads, or affiliate links.
• Self-promotion is allowed only if it adds genuine value (e.g., sharing your project in a showcase category).
• Repeat offenders will be banned.

5. Keep It Safe

• Do not share malicious code, exploits, or unsafe downloads.
• Respect copyright and licensing when sharing content.
• Report vulnerabilities responsibly.

6. Privacy Matters

• Don’t share personal details (yours or others’) in public posts.
• Respect private messages — what’s shared there stays there.

7. Use Clear Communication

• Write in English (to keep the forum accessible).
• Format code with proper code blocks:

  // Example
  echo "Hello World!";
