Community Guidelines

1. No Minors (Under 18)

Minors: any content involving characters who are under 18 years old, whether real or fictional. This rule applies even if the content is non-sexual.

• No underage characters, even in SFW bots.
• No underage focused locations (daycares; nurseries; elementary, middle, high school, special academies).
• No characters from media who are canonically underage.
• No "aged-up" characters (making a 17-year-old character "18"; age inferred or implied but not stated outright, such as time changes; ages that are ambiguous in any way or not given at all).
• No "legal loli" (characters who look like children but claim to be adults).
• No references to children unless explicitly stated to be adults (e.g., "my 25-year-old daughter").
• No parenthood implying underage birth (e.g., "I had my kid at 16" → banned).

2. No Grooming

Grooming behavior, meaning any implication of waiting for, preparing, or conditioning someone for sexual activity before they reach adulthood, is strictly prohibited.

• No waiting until someone turns 18.
• No mentions of knowing the user/character "since they were young," "growing up together," or "watching them mature."
• No mentor/student, guardian/ward, or authority-figure relationships with undertones of pre-adult history.

3. No Non-Consent (NC) or Sexual Assault

Non-consensual sexual activity, meaning any implications of coercion, force, or situations where consent cannot be freely given or withdrawn. This includes both explicit depictions and implied scenarios.

• No rape, sexual assault, or forced acts of any kind.
• No intoxication to the point of impaired judgment and inability to consent.
• No blackmail, coercion, or threatening themes.
• No sexual activity with unconscious, asleep, or heavily sedated characters.
• No exploiting characters with cognitive disabilities or altered mental states (e.g., hypnosis, mind control).
• No captivity scenarios where consent isn't freely possible (e.g., prisoners, slaves, hostages).
• No secretly recording or distributing intimate content.
• No surprise acts without prior consent (e.g., stealthing, removing protection without consent).

4. No Hate Speech

Hate speech and discriminatory content, meaning any content that promotes harm, exclusion, or harassment based on personal characteristics or beliefs.

• No calls for violence, discrimination, hate, mocking, or slurs based on disabilities, race, ethnicity, religion, gender, or sexuality.
• No "fantasy racism" (discrimination, oppression, or slurs based on race/species).
• No perpetuating harmful myths or stereotypes (e.g., gender roles, racial superiority).
• No promotion of violent ideologies (Nazism, terrorism).
• No recruitment for hate groups.

5. No Bestiality

Bestiality, meaning any content that involves sexual acts with animals. This rule exists because animals cannot give informed consent, since they lack the cognitive ability to understand or agree to sexual activity with humans.

• No sexual acts with fantasy or real-world animals (dogs, cats, horses, pokemon, etc.).
• No references to bestiality (e.g., "I had sex with my dog").
• No references to zoophilia (romantic/sexual attraction to animals).
• No sexual content involving creatures that cannot communicate or think like humans (e.g., a horse with a human face but animal intelligence).
• No "animal instincts" as an excuse (e.g., "werewolves can't control themselves").

6. No Extreme Violence or Abuse

Extreme Violence or Abuse, meaning any content that glorifies, encourages, or graphically depicts excessive harm, be it physical or psychological. Even in fictional settings, certain violent themes are never allowed because they promote real-world harm or trauma.

• No detailed descriptions of cannibalism, dismemberment, decapitation, disembowelment, mutilation, prolonged suffering.
• No "snuff" content (sexualized death).
• No self-harm instructions or encouragement (cutting, eating disorders, suicide methods).
• No romanticizing abusive relationships (e.g., "He hits you because he loves you").
• No "punishment" themes without clear boundaries (e.g., "I'll hurt you until you learn").
• No recreations of war crimes, genocide, or school shootings.
• No idolization of serial killers or violent extremists.
• No descriptions of animal suffering (real or fantasy).

7. No Real People or Illegal Content

Real-world harm, meaning any content that exploits, impersonates, or promotes illegal acts involving actual people or takes place in the real world. Breaking these rules will result in immediate removal and possible legal action.

• No deepfakes or AI-generated images of real people (celebrities, streamers, politicians, private individuals).
• No promotion of illegal activities in the real-world (drug dealing, trafficking, etc.).
• No doxxing or sharing private information (addresses, IDs, non-public photos).
• No promoting crimes in the real-world (drug manufacturing, hacking, fraud, trafficking).
• No sharing pirated content (movies, books, paid AI models).
• No facilitating harm in the real-world (hitman services, weapon sales).

• No recruiting for hate groups or violent ideologies in the real-world.
• No manuals for making weapons/drugs/explosives.

Limited Display Triggers:

• Visible genitals (penis, vagina, nipples, anus, testicles)
