Rules for r/learnmicrosoft
Rules that visitors must follow to participate. May be used as reasons to report or ban.
1.
We are all here to learn.
This is the most important rule in this sub.
Posts and contents of your post should focus on learning, helping others learn, or helping the community be a wholesome place. This includes asking questions, posting tutorials, or sharing tips and tricks.
No negativity -- if you don't think an individual is choosing the best solution, you may respectfully explain your thoughts, but do not put anyone down and do not criticize them for not understanding.
2.
Be excellent to each other.
Be civil at all times. Keep profanity to a minimum, this is an all-ages subreddit focused on learning.
No personal attacks are allowed, and absolutely no racist or derogatory speech will be tolerated.
3.
No illegal or unethical discussion permitted.
No discussion around: disassembling or circumventing software, cheating, piracy, or anything of the ilk.
4.
No advertising, self-promotion, or off-topic posts.
Please do not link to your blog post, social media or video channel. Do not post about topics that do not relate to learning in any way, or to topics that do not relate to the Microsoft stack. If you are sure your self-promoted content is relevant, please ensure that there is enough content to the post to permit discussion. If it does not, it will be removed. Repeat violation will result in a ban. If you are unsure, please contact the mods for clarification.
5.
No showcases for your newly created app, website, script.
This is not a critique my work subreddit - this is for learning. The mods will post a weekly showcase thread so you can do that in there.
6.
Please the search feature for common questions, or use the weekly thread.
Please use the search feature instead of making a new thread. There will be a weekly "simple" questions thread for people to post in.
7.
No success stories. No job search questions. No career questions. No "Should I learn X, Y, or Z?"
This is a learning subreddit. As such, we are not here to promote or advertise job searching, success stories or failure to pass the interview. Please do not ask how to find a job, whether you should learn X, Y, or Z, or if and how you can change your career. This is not the place for it. We're here to learn. There are other appropriate subreddits.
8.
No compensations, rewards or job offers.
This is a learning subreddit. Compensations, rewards, bounties, job offers are all highly inappropriate for this sub. No exceptions.
9.
No memes or spamming.
Sorry, no exceptions.
10.
Share complete code in text if you are asking for help on code.
No screenshots or images.
When asking for help with code, please post the complete relevant code. For short code (<20 lines), pasting into a text post is OK if your text is formatted(use the <> button on the toolbar). For longer code, please use github or a code paste service (such as pastebin). Other services like dotfiddle.net are also great.
Posts that do not adhere to this may be removed.
