AMINO GUIDELINES

.・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

✧༺ :hearts: ༻∞ Introduction ∞༺ :hearts: ༻✧

Welcome to the GSA Amino! Allies and queer alike are all accepted and encouraged here! Though we love our s with heart and soul, there’s a few things right off the bat you should know:

1. This is a 12+ Amino! If you are found to be younger, you may be banned. This is because even though our staff tries our upmost hardest to keep this place safe and secure, we can’t guarantee you that all s will follow our guidelines, and we do not want younger people to suffer because of this.

2. If you see something, report it! If anything seems like it would be breaching the community’s or apps guidelines, report it, and our staff will take care of it.

3. Make sure you read our guidelines! And most of all

4. Have fun!! Amino is a great way to meet friends, build community, and express yourself. If you are mindful and respectful of other s, you should be just fine. We love seeing new and what you have to say!!

༺Harassment & spamming༻

Any form of bullying or discrimination is unacceptable. This includes bullying, discrimination, trolling, and unwanted advances. If the staff find you to be guilty of harassment or bullying, you are at risk of being striked, suspended, or banned. We do not take harassment lightly. If you feel like you are being harassed or attacked in any way, please report it.

༺False Reports༻

As much as reports are important, false reports are a serious breech of guidelines. GSA staff want to keep this community clean, but it’ll be difficult trying to sift through false reports. Not only does it waste our time, it’s time we could have spent helping someone who really needed it. Make sure that what you report is:

Not a joke or for fun

A breech of guidelines

Important for staff to be notified about

False reporting may give you a strike. Think before you report

༺Plagiarism༻

Plagiarism is INTOLERABLE. Do NOT post work or art that isn’t yours without permission and tagging the artist. If you cannot find the artists information, make it very clear that you do not own the art. If you are proven to have lied about the work being yours, you will get a strike. If you have not cited the work is not yours, the post will be taken down. If you are posting your own content, post evidence of it being yours if possible.

༺Three strike warning༻

This is pretty self explanatory, basically, three strikes your out. You can get strikes from breaking Amino guidelines, and if you get three strikes your will be banned. If you feel like you were unrightfully banned, message a leader or curator for questions or review.
