This has been said many times by others. Including MJ.
The fastlane forum is NOT a normal social media app. You can’t just post zero value posts. You can’t just whine on here like a baby.
The fastlane forum was a choice from MJ, because he wanted to help others become free from the shackles.
Your access to this forum is a privilege, not a right.
Its been said many times, but sometimes it’s not clear enough.
You can, and will be banned for posting low value/offensive posts
If you post dumb shit, you will get banned.
Almost everyone here has had atleast one stupid post, I have a few.
But if others point it out to you, listen.
If you can’t listen to others, you won’t be a good entrepreneur.
People come on here and these peoples trajectories get changed from others. Because they have the ability to listen to others.
It’s the same thing as listening to your market.
If you make a completely shit product and put it out there, receive bad feedback, how will you see it?
Will you quit and move on? Sometimes it’s good to do that, something @luminis_
Shared on my progress thread.
Will you see it as constructive advice? Will you change your product around that?
Or will you just put in sound cancelling earplugs and not listen?
Most people on here have made low value posts, got constructive advice and learnt from their “market” (the forum).
High Value/Well Written Posts/Questions Attract High Value Responses.
This has been proven more times than I can count.
Here’s a good example, the topic is asking how to get your first sale. (These are examples by me)
Thread #1: Got My Product Up, How Should I Go About Getting Sales?
Hello everyone, if you have read my progress thread, you may know I’m starting a company. If you haven’t, you can read it Here.
My niche is X, my product is Y, and I’ve gotten proof that there is a need in the market.
I’ve seen zero activity so far, and I’ve been stumped.
Does anyone have any experience on X niche or launching X type of products? Do you have any advice on how to get my product out there?
Anything would be nice, and thank you everyone.

Or Thread #2: how do I get sale?
ive gotten my product up and im wondering how to sell.anyone know what do to
(Thread to read from MJ)
IMPORTANT! - Forum tip: Better questions get better answers.
Which one do you think would attract someone who has good value to add to this forum? What about repel them?
Few tips when navigating the forum:
1. Use the search function above to find a thread that might have your problem solved already by a post. You could even search by the user's name as well.
2. Post relevant replies by actually reading the person's post and then reply (Don't forget to read the rest of the replies before posting your answer already. Might not hurt to post yours anyway.
3. Do make sure you actually read the books, before posting questions that the books may have already answered. So it doesn't make you look like an imbecile or who hasn't read the books.
4. Don't ask questions on whether or you should do something. Go to the marketplace and perform the action instead and just see how they react, then post up your results of how well what you did went.
Just, on behalf of the forum, please think about posting something. If you cannot, you’ll be put under moderation. And the fastlane forum isn’t a normal social media app, it’s for people who have a purpose in life, and who thrive for a better earth, so if you help and keep this forum clean of low value posts, you’ll be doing us a favour.
