Community guidelines

Yes please

• Your own story, in your own words.
• Honesty about the hard parts.
• Other people's normals, treated with respect.

Never

How moderation works

1. 1. Automated screening checks every submission for slurs, contact details and risk language.
2. 2. A human moderator reads it and approves, edits nothing, or rejects it.
3. 3. Approved stories go on the Hero Wall. Rejected ones are never published.
4. 4. Anyone can report a live story; reports are reviewed within 24 hours.
5. 5. Repeat abuse leads to submissions from that source being blocked.
