CREATORS AND READERS STAY SAFE

We do not tolerate stolen work, harassment, hate, or spam.

AI may help triage only the reported words, but an administrator decides and records every case. We track reporting patterns to deter false reports, harassment, and abusive AI cost; unusual activity may be privately investigated. Two confirmed account holds may lead to a ban; two confirmed bans lawfully linked to the same verified person may lead to indefinite exclusion. Active enforcement does not expire. After it is lifted, it counts for six violation-free months. An affected person has 30 days to appeal.
