Hi There everyone!
I though about an idea, which is to share thoughts, help each other and what more build a community where we will get to know each other!
I have set up a slack group, anyone is welcome :) !
I'm going to make different categories, for front-end, design, iOS and so on.
We will be able to collaborate on project, and learn an important skill in the real world which is collaboration with git, as well as gain some experience doing that.
If this sounded as something you'd like to be part of, post your email in the comment, or better an answer, and I will send you an invitation for the slack group!
Happy Coding!

Treehouse TeacherHi everyone! I agree with Steven Parker. Please remember that this is an open forum and any personal information can be scraped by bots.
Aurelian, there are better ways to accomplish the same goal. The slack team you were formerly a member of had an app set up where you clicked a link and it lead you to a signup page for that slack team. This would be ideal for this case, as it would keep users' private information private and still provide a great way to expand the team you wish to build.
Good luck!

This is life? ...
I don't have anything against anyone, but why do I always get mocked? Because I don't understand it :) If someone can explain it to me pelase.
I don't know, 'asking for personal information' this is collaboration and learning.
If a Staff member was to write on this, as I don't know what's misleading on my post, I'm sure it's clear on what I wrote, that would be great!
Because how did the group you are in formed? :)

10,801 PointsYou don't see anyone mocked, I know, but that's how I feel from some time here on teamtreehouse.
Always me, from ordinary things. It's not that I see any of this in other posts, just me.
Again, I don't have hate to anyone. Just saying.

Treehouse TeacherI'm sorry if you feel that I am mocking you in some way. That was sincerely not my intention. Treehouse regularly updates their Terms and Conditions and may have done so since those were posted. Some of them are over a year old.
The first one (your favorite) did ask for emails, but it also added a link to an app on heroku for an Auto-Join option, which is exactly what I was suggesting. One of the posts that you linked was specifically about the Treehouse slack for Techdegree students. And no emails were asked for there either.
It is entirely possible that I'm misinterpreting the Terms and Conditions as they are currently written. Staff is more than welcome to come and correct me if I'm wrong, of course.
I wish you all the luck in the world with your team, I just believe there might be a better way to go about it (like the auto-join app) than asking students to provide their email to you on an open forum. That's all I meant

10,801 PointsI'm not talking specifically about you. Because you wrote only once.. now. My bad.. I wrote that badly.
But.. again, eh. auto-join = phishing for information as I will get their emails, from what I understood.
And not that everyone know how to make an auto-join option, as that's against slack lol
But anyways.. I'm not talking about you with mocking, but In general.

231,261 PointsSince the Treehouse Community forum is totally open and easily read by scraping bots, I would suggest careful consideration before posting any kind of direct contact information here, particularly an e-mail address.
And to Aurelian, instead of asking other students to post their email address here, you could post your own to allow any interested student to contact you directly.
