This includes, but is not limited to: graphics, images, logos, illustrations, financial information, content, product information, code, contact information, phone numbers, email addresses, presentations, videos, or other documents.

Copying another member’s products (likeness, ingredients, packaging, wording, logo, manufacturing, marketing, design, etc.) will result in the immediate termination of your account.

Privacy and Confidentiality

All forum discussions must remain private and confidential. Sharing particulars of a discussion – especially in written form – outside of the forum is prohibited and will lead to immediate termination of your account. The display of any portion of Scalepath LLC learning materials on Coda or Slack discussions on another website is prohibited.

Using any type of site scraper or copying content in any way (even if for personal use) from Scalepath LLC will result in immediate termination of your account.

Sharing Accounts

Sharing an account is not permitted. Each member must apply separately if you have multiple people in an organization who wish to be involved in Scalepath LLC.

Moderator Actions

Occasionally a moderator will need to take action on a post that violates the community guidelines in some way (spam, affiliate link, inappropriate comment, etc). If you have an issue with a moderator’s decision, please contact sam@joinScalepath LLC.com. Discussing moderator decisions within the forum is prohibited.

We reserve the right to edit any and all content that has been placed on Scalepath LLC, as well as the right to revoke your membership at any time.

Coexistence rules

Be respectful. Disagreeing with others is fine as long as it’s done tactfully. People who put down others, are abusive, are short with others, or are just downright obnoxious will be removed with little or no warning!

Comments or posts that contain racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, or any other type of bigoted language (as determined by Scalepath LLC) will result in the immediate termination of your account. We have a zero-tolerance policy for this type of behavior. If you choose to comment on issues related to sex, race, sexual orientation, or similar topics we strongly recommend you do it with an abundance of sensitivity and kindness. Comments that our staff views as racist, sexist, homophobic, or xenophobic – whether by intent or due to carelessness – will be dealt with accordingly.

Conduct that is grounds for immediate removal includes but is not limited to:

  • Harassing or bullying members or moderators
  • Racist/sexist language
  • Making threats against others
  • Stalking members or moderators
  • Spamming the forum or specific members
  • Promoting illegal activities
  • Promoting obscene materials
  • Posting porn
  • Promoting violent conduct
  • Selling anything without forum permission
  • Uploading viruses
  • Uploading malware
  • Attempting to hack the backend of the forum
  • Soliciting members for sex
  • Posting adult content
  • Promoting contests without forum consent, and promoting pyramid schemes
  • Political Discussions

Political Discussions

Even though we understand politics' role in business, we don’t allow political discussions in the Slack Forum. Why? Because people can be very passionate about their beliefs, which can cause civil discussions to quickly degrade and become contentious. Feelings get hurt, and as a result, the Community as a whole is hurt.

There are plenty of places on the web where you can discuss politics all day long, but the Scalepath LLC Slack Forum is not one of them. If you post a political comment or start a political thread, we will remove it and politely remind you of the rules. If it happens a second time, your account will be suspended.
