Community Guidelines
Community Guidelines
Welcome to Penman International! Our user community is made up of diverse individuals from around the globe, each contributing to the vibrancy of our community. To uphold the quality and standards of our platform and ensure that all users feel safe and respected, we've crafted these Community Guidelines. Please familiarize yourself with these guidelines and apply them in all your interactions with fellow users. We take these guidelines seriously and reserve the right to deactivate or suspend accounts found in violation of them.
User Conduct
Respect for others and their creative endeavors, whether on our platform or elsewhere, is paramount. Here are some key points to keep in mind:
- Choose a username that is inclusive, free of discrimination, hate speech, or explicit content.
- Harassment, bullying, abuse, demeaning language, or threats directed towards other users will not be tolerated. If you experience such behavior from a Penman International user, please report it to us immediately.
- While constructive criticism is encouraged, ensure that feedback on a user's work or comments remains respectful, helpful, and focused on the content rather than the creator.
- Activities that disrupt the functionality of another user's device or our platform, including the distribution of harmful software or engaging in spamming, are strictly prohibited.
- Keep posts and comments relevant to the ongoing discussion. Avoid spamming other users or the platform for reviews or self-promotion. This includes unsolicited content or links to external websites or personal work.
- Posting illegal or pornographic content, or links to such content, is not permitted.
- Avoid impersonating others or engaging in deceptive behavior that may mislead users about your identity.
- Protect the privacy of fellow users by refraining from disclosing personally identifiable information, also known as "doxing."
- Artificially inflating profile metrics or creating multiple accounts to manipulate interactions is prohibited.
- While we cannot monitor user behavior on third-party platforms, we reserve the right to take action, including account suspension or deletion, if conduct elsewhere violates these guidelines and reflects poorly on Penman International.
Content Guidelines
Ensure that all content you create, post, or submit aligns with these guidelines.
Prohibited Content
While diverse opinions are welcome, content that is harmful, threatening, discriminatory, or bigoted will be removed at our discretion. Examples include:
- Encouragement of violence, support for terrorist organizations, or content that incites harm or destruction.
- Promotion of hate, violence, or discrimination based on characteristics such as race, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or gender identity.
- Exposure to harmful software or websites through shared links.
- Pornographic content is strictly prohibited.
Mature Content
Some mature content may be permitted, provided it is appropriately marked and intended for users over 18. Ensure clarity in titles and descriptions, and comply with platform-specific guidelines for mobile applications.
Advertisements and Spam
Avoid promoting third-party products or services or posting irrelevant, repetitive, or unwanted content. Engaging in such behavior may result in account suspension or deactivation.
Reporting and Feedback
We encourage users to report any content that violates these guidelines. We will take appropriate action, which may include notifying the content owner and, in severe cases, suspending or deactivating accounts.
Violation of these guidelines may lead to account suspension or termination, and we reserve the right to involve local authorities as necessary.
We are dedicated to fostering a safe, inclusive, and thriving environment for our users. Your feedback is valuable in shaping our community standards, so please don't hesitate to share your suggestions for improvement.
