Community Guidelines

In order to foster a vibrant and constructive community, we ask all members to follow the below guidelines when interacting with Arclane Strategy Circle members. Any member in violation of these guidelines will be removed from the community.

1. Maintain Confidentiality

Community members highly value their privacy and share experiences and expertise in the trust that their privacy will be respected. Similarly, Arclane Strategy Circle promises outside experts and deal sponsors that their information will be treated with discretion. The identity of members, content of discussions, and information regarding deals or deal sponsors must not be shared outside the community.

2. No Solicitation

Arclane Strategy Circle aims to foster a “safe space” for authentic relationships and unbiased peer insights. Solicitation of any kind is strictly prohibited, ensuring members can interact without feeling pressured by sales or promotional activities. For full details, please refer to the updated No Solicitation Policy below.

3. Direct Investments Only

Members may only participate in investment opportunities through Arclane Strategy Circle that are shared and vetted by the community or its team. This approach ensures transparency, alignment with Arclane Strategy Circle’s purpose, and equitable access for members.

4. Respect and Positivity

Arclane Strategy Circle is built on respect, trust, and shared values. Every member has been selected for their personal accomplishments and commitment to the community. Discussions and in person interactions should reflect these principles, fostering a respectful environment even when perspectives differ. Disagreements are welcome, but personal attacks or questioning others’ motives or intellectual rigor is not. Steer clear of divisive topics like politics or religion unless discussing how to navigate current policies or their potential evolution. All members are expected to respect personal space, physically and emotionally, especially in social settings such as retreats, dinners, or informal meetups. 

5. Use Real Names

All members are required to use their real names and identities within the community. This transparency enhances trust and the quality of discussions, reinforcing the authenticity of Arclane Strategy Circle interactions.
