Thanks for the kind words. We really appreciate it. Asen & I started JSMentors.com specifically to provide a place where developers of all skill levels can share ideas and get support without fear of having their questions or feedback diminished. So far, it's worked great. Many of the same top-level developers that frequent C.L.J can be found here offering fantastic advice.
So please don't hesitate to recommend JSMentors to anyone. To us, as long as a person can follow the following rules, they should be successful on JSMentors: - *Personal Attacks:* Please don’t engage in personal attacks (on authors, users or any individual), persistent trolling or mindless abuse. The JSMentors.com community should focus on intelligently discussing topics by furthering the conversation and informing the participants with resourceful and constructive ideas. - *Hate speech:* Racism, sexism and homophobia will not be tolerated. - *Language and Threats:* Please watch your language and respect other people’s views, beliefs and emotions. We reserve the right to remove any content that might be found extremely offensive or threatening. - *No Spam:* Spam and advertising content will be removed. - *Smear Tactics:* Constructive criticism of postings and topics is acceptable but we will not allow misrepresentation. We will distinguish between constructive arguments and smear tactics. - *Relevancy:* Please keep conversations relevant. Off-topic comments are subject to removal in order to keep the thread on track. - *Quality:* We encourage you to take responsibility for the quality of the conversations in which you’re participating. Maintain intelligent discussions in the JSMentors.com community by being respectful and considerate. - *Help us:* Maintain an inviting interaction space by self-policing threads and flagging spam. Although we have a hands-on approach to community engagement, we do sometimes miss problem commenters or trolls. We appreciate your efforts to keep the JSMentors community environment inviting, insightful and constructive. Let the conversations be quality ones. We're serious about these rules so that everyone has a great experience here. Thanks again for joining.
