If you're in this channel, that probably means you're familiar with our Code of Conduct (and maybe even the work-in-progress Member Handbook). One of the guidelines outlined in both places is that the first post from a new member should go in #CC2JRGVLK. This post should not be used to promote a startup, unless the post also includes something that is super on-topic for our community, like a deep technical exploration of their domain. We recently had a post in #CC2JRGVLK that didn't fit within this guideline. I posted a reply saying that that was the case, and then the OP posted an acknowledgement. I decided to delete these message, so that other folks coming to the community, heading in to #CC2JRGVLK to make their first post, would only see good examples and not bad examples. (In my estimation, the sort of people who skip the fairly clearly signposted request to check the Member Handbook before joining would probably also skip the replies to previous posts saying, "Hi friend, bad post!") For the sake of posterity and transparency, I'll include the now-deleted thread in a reply to this post. For the sake of mischievous tricksterdom, the inclusion will take the form of a screenshot, since that will boil the blood of a handful of folks here, I just know it. :)
