Slack – User guidelines for Nutanix Multicloud Experts Community

We are here to help 

If you are new to the community and have any questions, just ask. The moderators and other participants are always happy to help. 

Be a valued member of your community 

We focus on being helpful to one another and discussing information that is beneficial to other members of the community. Provide insight that warrants good feedback. Before posting, consider whether the material is both appropriate and relevant. Moreover, avoid posting the same question in multiple discussions. Try to identify the best place for your question and post it there. If in doubt, ask. Multiple postings create confusion among fellow members and to the community moderators, who remove them. Additionally, they are difficult for you, the poster, to track. 

Don’t do anything your mom would disapprove of 

Just as in a live community, you want to build a personal yet professional reputation. Everyone wants a positive experience in the community; please be gracious to your fellow members. Nutanix, reserves the right to remove any members or messages that are unethical, insulting, abusive, offensive, threatening, harassing, or acting in any similar manner. This includes members or messages that practice or involve illegal activities, or those that violate or disregard these guidelines or the Terms of Service. 

Be yourself 

Impersonating another member, a community moderator, or a representative of a legitimate organization is not tolerated.
