For every Spot

Make a Spot worth noticing.

A useful Spot tells nearby people what matters, why it matters now and how they can respond.

Be specific

Say 'Power cut near 12th Main?' instead of 'Help'
Include the useful local context, not a vague headline
Make the ask, offer, update or plan clear in the first sentence

Pin the relevant area

Place the Spot where the information is locally useful
Never publish homes, private offices or someone else's location
Public pins stay approximate to protect private details

Explain the response

Say whether people should discuss, join, message or use a link
Use seat limits only when a plan really has limited capacity
For offers and callouts, include enough proof or context to trust it

Keep the timing honest

Choose when the Spot stops being useful, not an arbitrary long expiry
Use a start time for an actual plan; use expiry for updates and asks
Edit or close the Spot when the situation changes
