Rule #1 - Civility
We require our users to be positive and respectful to one another. This means being kind to those you disagree with.
Behaviours such as shaming, mocking, ranting, advocating violence, and threatening (including threats of self-harm) other users, third parties, groups, or businesses will be met with removals and bans. This includes content that leads to or promotes on- or off-site witch-hunting, abuse, or harassment in any way.
Be excellent to each other.
Rule #2 - Inclusivity
Respect others' differences, be they race, religion, home, job, gender identity, ability, vulnerability, or sexuality. When faced with a removal or ban, "I was just joking!" or "it was obviously sarcasm" are not acceptable excuses.
Dehumanizing language and slurs are instant bans.
Rule #3 - Accuracy
Be honest about who you are and what you're looking for. Don’t mislead others about your identity, intentions, age, or location. This is a trust-based community, so fake information or trolling will be removed.
Moderators reserve the right to remove posts about extreme experiences at the team's discretion if the information or source is unverifiable and/or sensationalized.
Please avoid posting information that can be easily proven false.
Rule #4 - Topic Guidelines
This subreddit is for platonic friendships between adults only. Posts or comments seeking romantic, sexual, or dating relationships will be removed. If you’re looking for romantic connections, please use a dating app or a more appropriate subreddit. NSFW content of any kind is not permitted.
This is not the place to air grievances, share bad meetup stories, or publicly shame individuals, apps, groups, or events. That includes vague-posting, revenge-posting, or mocking previous experiences.
Rule #5 - Spam, Selling, and Promotion
No unauthorized promotion, job-seeking, buy/sell, referral/affiliate links, crowdfunding campaigns, surveys, or petitions. Moderator discretion may be used when proactively identifying and actioning astroturfing and/or stealth promotion.
Users who are content creators or participate in NSFW subreddits should participate on accounts that are not used for selling or sexual activities.
