🌿 CLIMB Crafts Community Guidelines

A practical, human set of norms for making together, built for where we are now and ready to grow with care.

✋ The CLIMB Crafts Pledge

Every new member agrees to this when they join.

  • 🌿 Make with purpose. Creativity fits real life, depth over speed.
  • 💚 Care first. Respect others’ stories, struggles, and materials.
  • 🧵 Be real. Share genuine work. No dropshipping, no stolen designs.
  • Respect consent. Credit makers, ask permission, honor boundaries.
  • 🤲 Keep it open. Beginners, elders, returners all belong here.

🌱 Our Purpose

CLIMB Crafts is a space for makers of all levels to create, learn, and share without performative pressure. These guidelines protect that purpose and help this circle grow with care.

💚 Our Core Values — In Action

🌿 Make with Purpose → Creativity

Share process and craft for the love of it. Progress at your pace, with depth and intention.

💚 Care First → Care

Feedback is kind, specific, and non-extractive. People before performance.

🧵 Be Real → Integrity of Making

CLIMB is built by hands, not mass-market resellers. No dropshipping or copied work.

✨ Respect Consent → Co-Creation

Credit lineage and labor. Ask before remixing. Honor paywalls and boundaries.

🤲 Keep It Open → Belonging

Beginners, elders, returners, and quiet participants all belong. No gatekeeping.

✅ How to Engage (Do’s)

  • Share your process and reflections, works-in-progress welcome.
  • Listen before you respond. Asynchronous replies are okay.
  • Use topic-first forums to keep conversations safe and organized.
  • Offer care-centered feedback: kind, specific, non-extractive.
  • Uplift others, nominate makers, credit sources, and cite inspiration.

🚫 What Doesn’t Belong (Don’ts)

  • Harassment, hate speech, or personal attacks.
  • Dropshipping, stolen designs, or deceptive selling.
  • Spam or engagement-bait posts.
  • Sales pushes outside designated vendor spaces.
  • Urgency, guilt, or pressure tactics.

🛡 Moderation & Trust

Founding stage

We trust members first. Moderators step in when safety is at risk.

As we grow

Verified makers and stewards help uphold guidelines with consistency and care.

Transparency

If content is removed, we’ll explain why. Repeat harm may lead to suspension or removal.
