Help Topic: Forum Code of Conduct
By accessing the forum and participating in discussion, you are agreeing to abide by Evernote’s forum code of conduct. While we’ve covered the basics, we most certainly haven’t covered everything. The Code of Conduct may be amended at any time should Evernote deem it necessary.
General Guidelines
The Evernote forums aim to foster constructive discussion. Be yourself, but please use this general rule of thumb: if you wouldn’t say it at the dinner table*, don’t say it here. We don’t mind snark and gibes, but don’t get hateful. Put another way: the golden rule applies here.
Here are a few other rules to live by on the forum:
1. Stay on topic.
If you really must wax poetic about Montaigne, discuss your favorite gazpacho recipe, or talk about what cute thing your cat is doing today, please take it on over to our Off Topic Discussion area.
2. Abstain from using obscene content and discriminatory language.
Consider this a necessary extension to our general guidelines. We have no tolerance for any kind discriminatory language. Users who break this rule will be warned or banned, temporarily or permanently, depending on the flagrancy of the violation in question.
3. Please don’t sell yourself.
We’ll delete any advertising, including spam. Main exceptions to this rule are third party developers using the forum to gain feedback on their integration with Evernote. We reserve the right to decide what is and isn’t advertorial on these forums.
4. Don’t engage in flame wars.
They will simply not be tolerated. If things get out of control and a thread is hijacked, it will be closed. Repeat offenders will find themselves ban-hammered temporarily.
5. Don’t overdo it.
Try to refrain from double posting, topic bumping or spamming the forum with copied/repeated posts. Flagrant abuse will get you a warning, then a temporary ban if you keep it up.
6. There are better places on the web to talk politics and religion.
While we respect all religions and beliefs and love political dialogue, we ask that users refrain from engaging in overtly religious (or political) discussion on our boards, unless it has specific relation to Evernote products, third party products or use cases. Evernote's great for engaging in religious learning and organizing religious study, and we definitely promote that and other use cases here on the forum.
*Thanksgiving dinners with extended family do NOT apply.
