Community Guidelines

Keep people unidentifiable

• Use a first name or nickname only.
• Do not include phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses, workplaces, schools, social handles or other identifying details.
• Do not combine details that make a private person easy to identify.

No explicit or exploitative content

• No pornographic or sexually explicit material.
• No sexual content involving minors.
• No graphic content intended to shock, humiliate or exploit.

No threats, hate or targeted abuse

• No threats of violence or instructions to harm someone.
• No hateful attacks based on protected characteristics.
• No severe harassment, stalking, doxxing, blackmail or targeted humiliation.

No illegal promotion or spam

• Do not promote illegal activity, scams or dangerous wrongdoing.
• Do not submit advertisements, repetitive spam, promotional links or suspicious links.
• Do not manipulate reactions, views, trending systems or moderation.

What may still be allowed

Sadness, anger, heartbreak, regret and difficult emotions are not automatically prohibited. The difference is whether the writing expresses a feeling without exposing, threatening or abusing another person.

Moderation decisions

A warning is a signal for human review, not automatic proof of wrongdoing. Staff may approve, reject, remove or hold content according to these guidelines and the Terms of Use.
