🧭 UnboundedFigures Community Guidelines

UnboundedFigures is a home for fearless math thinkers—from dreamers and rebels to tinkerers and researchers. To protect the freedom we stand for, we ask all community members to uphold the following values:

🧠 1. Respect All Work—Polished or Pseudo

  • We don’t judge ideas by their formatting, structure, or polish.
  • If it’s mathematical thinking—even raw, chaotic, or incomplete—it belongs here.
  • Support wild ideas, strange patterns, and philosophical experiments.

đź“Ł 2. No Elitism, No Gatekeeping

  • No one gets dismissed for “not knowing enough.”
  • You don’t need a degree to have insight.
  • Correcting someone? Do it kindly. Debating an idea? Do it constructively.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 3. Collaboration Over Competition

  • We don’t measure intelligence here—we build it together.
  • Celebrate people who ask questions, revise their thinking, or publish something imperfect.
  • Give credit where it's due. Lift others up.

🤖 4. Our Policy on AI Use

We believe AI can be a bridge—not a crutch.

âś… You may use AI (e.g. ChatGPT, Wolfram, CoPilot) to:

  • Help structure your thoughts
  • Polish your LaTeX or math writing
  • Explore formatting or alternative phrasing
  • Clarify intuition that you’re struggling to express

đźš« You must not:

  • Post AI-generated solutions without commentary or engagement
  • Blindly copy-paste AI output without understanding it
  • Use AI to simulate expertise or misrepresent your abilities

🟡 Be transparent. If AI helped you, say so. That’s not shameful—it’s honest. You’re still the thinker behind the post.

Use the tag #ai-assisted for any work meaningfully supported by AI.

🚫 5. Behavior That’s Never Allowed

  • Harassment, bullying, or condescension of any kind
  • Dismissing someone’s work as “not math” because it looks unconventional
  • Spamming, trolling, or turning the platform into a battleground
  • Using AI to impersonate human insight

đź’¬ 6. Judgment-Free Doesn't Mean Standard-Free

We are open—but not chaotic.
We aim for freedom with integrity.

We’re here to build new things together—not just debate endlessly or posture.

This community is powered by real people doing real thinking.
Let’s keep it unbounded, respectful, and extraordinary.
