I just saw this because of @gmate8@lemmy.ml news update and I thought to express why I have difficulties trusting these platforms (I am not singling out Guilded but it’s was involved). That don’t let you have it your ways.
It’s boils down on uncertainty of the Terms and Conditions of these platforms and lack of providing clarifications on them.
In Guilded I was concerned if I were allowed to setup a community for an online business that I used to and I made it perfectly clear that I wanted to connect my clients and create a community FOR it. Instead of it being FOR the business itself..
But even months of no replies I am left unclear of what they “really” means of non commercial use of the platform really meant and if my use case would violate that section of the ToCs.
Well they gotten a hold of me after I sent the email again. Not gonna recurrent what I had in mind but at least I know now they don’t mind doing it in such manners as long as in the end of the day the T&U and Community Guidelines. As I made it perfectly clear to them that I wanted to use for the extension of the business as a community place instead of doing sales and transactions ON the platform.
I asked Jared (The Guilded Staff) about it, and he said this:
Which as I stated I did. I contacted that email for support, it assigned me a ticket # and they never replied to it. It’s been months now.
Alrighty sent them the same Subject Line as I did since February and stating that and the original message that it contained. Hopefully they can soon address the inquiry.
