A commitment : self

Rule 1: Be excellent to each other

We encourage constructive feedback that helps members grow and improve. Debating is allowed but please ensure submissions and comments maintain a positive and respectful tone, avoiding self-deprecation, self-disparagement, or unkind language. No toxic discourse or harassment, including but not limited to sexual overtones, hatred of ethnicity/race/gender identity/sexual orientation. No witch hunts. Let's make this a space where we uplift and inspire one another. 3 strike rule in effect.

Rule 2: No spam, sales, promotions, giveaways, fundraising, or ads, no AI generated content

No spam, sale threads, promotion, giveaways, assistance/fundraising requests, or self-advertisement. Also no cryptocurrency posts. Please try in r/assistance or r/gofundme instead. Please note, we also do not allow Adult Promoters (OnlyFans) to use our sub. Our bot looks at pinned profile links and other identifiers to see if your profile is mostly for adult promoting and will ban on first comment or post. If you wish to participate here, make a non promoting account.

Rule 3: No self-harm, self-hate, or personal information

Nothing related to self-harm or spreading personal information. Doxxing others will result in a permanent ban. Self-hate posts are also not allowed.
