QuoteAhead Community Guidelines

Introduction

Welcome to QuoteAhead! We're here to connect homeowners and contractors in a friendly, professional community. These Community Guidelines, part of our Terms of Service, keep QuoteAhead running smoothly for everyone. By using the platform, you agree to follow these, along with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. Questions? Hit us up at [email protected].

What's Covered

These rules apply to all your actions on QuoteAhead:

• Posts and Comments: Public chatter in the community.
• Job Requests and Bids: Service needs and contractor offers.
• Private Messages: One-on-one chats.
• Profiles: Your avatar, banner, bio, etc.

General Principles

• Be Respectful: Treat everyone—homeowners, contractors, and neighbors—with kindness and professionalism. Good vibes build great communities.
• No Discrimination: Racism, hate speech, or any discrimination? Not here.
• Use Your True Identity: Trust is key, so be yourself.
• No Harmful Activity: No scams, fraud, or anything that hurts others.

Platform-Specific Guidelines

• Posts and Comments: Stay on-topic and respectful. Disagree? Keep it constructive.
• Job Requests and Bids: Be clear, honest, and fair—no crazy demands or bid battles.
• Private Messages: Respect boundaries. No spam or harassment.
• Profiles: Pick professional images and keep bios clean and relevant.

Sharing Feedback and Resolving Disputes

Had a bad experience? We've got you covered:

• Try Private First: Reach out to the contractor directly to sort things out before posting publicly. It's faster and fairer.
• Going Public? Keep It Factual: If you post feedback, stick to specifics—like "they missed spots" or "work wasn't as promised"—and skip personal jabs.
• Check Your Facts: Make sure what you're saying is accurate. False claims can unfairly damage reputations.
• Expect a Response: Contractors can reply publicly to share their side. Be open to a respectful back-and-forth.
• No Pile-Ons: Keep discussions focused—don't turn feedback into a free-for-all argument.

What's Not Allowed

Here's what'll get you in trouble:

Hate Speech

No slurs or attacks based on race, gender, religion, or anything else.

Harassment

Don't bully, threaten, or pick fights. Disagree respectfully.

Excessive Swearing

A little is fine, but don't go overboard or get aggressive.

Spam

No repetitive posts, random ads, or off-topic junk. Promote yourself in the right places (like bids or profiles).

Off-Platform Deals

Keep job talks on QuoteAhead—no dodging rules or fees.

Inappropriate Content

Nothing obscene or unprofessional in posts, messages, or profiles.

Reporting and Enforcement

Spot an Issue? Hit the "Report" button or email [email protected]. We'll check it out fast.

What Happens: Depending on the violation, we might warn you, remove content, suspend your account, or ban repeat offenders. We'll keep it fair.
