The Hobbi Community Guidelines
Welcome to The Hobbi — where collectors belong. This is your space to learn, connect, and share the joy of collecting. To keep this community safe and fun for everyone, here are a few simple guidelines:
1. Be Kind & Respectful
We’re all here because we love collecting. Treat others how you’d want to be treated — no personal attacks, trolling, or toxic behavior. Friendly debate? Sure. Disrespect? Nope.
2. Keep It Clean & Relevant
Post in the right forum, keep things family-friendly, and avoid spam. Off-topic posts are fine in the lounge, but let’s keep most threads hobby-focused.
3. No Buying, Selling, or Trading (Except in Premium)
Buying, selling, or trading is only allowed in the Premium Members area. This paywall helps keep scammers out and protects our members while we build a full verification system. Please respect this boundary — any deals outside that space will be removed.
4. Share Knowledge, Not Scams
Scammers have no place here. If you see something shady, report it. We’ll investigate and remove bad actors quickly.
5. Protect Personal Info
Don’t post private addresses, phone numbers, or financial details. Protect your info and respect others’ privacy.
6. Constructive Contributions Only
Ask questions, share wins, teach others, or celebrate cool finds. Complaints are fine if constructive — help us keep the tone helpful and encouraging.
7. Moderation & Strikes Policy
We use a three-strike system:
-
1st Strike: Friendly reminder and guidance.
-
2nd Strike: Formal warning and possible temporary suspension.
-
3rd Strike: Permanent ban.
Serious violations (scamming, hate speech, threats) may result in immediate removal.
8. Feedback is Welcome
This community is built for you — if you see ways we can improve, let us know. We’re collectors too, and we’re building this together.
Bottom line: Love the hobby, hate the noise. Keep this a place where collectors at every level feel at home.
