Stonk
The first visit sets the tone. A new member should know what the community is for, what is expected, where to ask a question, and what happens after they join.
Use the StonkBuilder Community field guide to see the real dashboard and the current participation rules. Members can browse published communities before choosing one.
Put a short welcome message before the detailed rules. Give one first action that demonstrates how the group works. Explain moderation and privacy plainly. If the community uses points, describe them as community-specific reputation and show how contributions are reviewed; do not imply automatic payment or a token value.
Use the public link page to make the path visible, then let the authenticated community home handle member-only information. The community use case shows how those surfaces can stay connected without mixing their jobs.
Review the onboarding path after each rules or event change. A newcomer should be able to identify the official home, understand what is public, and find help when something goes wrong. Keep incentives, moderation decisions, and eligibility rules explicit; a friendly welcome is not a substitute for clear boundaries or verifiable records.
Show the contribution review path
Explain what a member can submit, who reviews it, how to see a decision, and where to ask a follow-up question. Make pending and declined states understandable. Do not imply that submitting work guarantees points.
If a community awards points, describe them as scoped to that community and non-redeemable. In StonkBuilder Community, payments and redemption are disabled, and X-action rewards are blocked by the current policy gate. The live dashboard shows campaign status; a draft campaign is not an invitation to expect a payout.
For official posts, retain a link to the original source and label dated snapshots. For saved content, explain where it is stored: StonkBuilder's saved posts stay in the member's browser rather than syncing across accounts.
Start with the online community homepage guide for the public front door.
