# Forum Guidelines The Creators’ Forum at `forum.overdare.com` is a space where verified creators can collaborate, share feedback, and troubleshoot together. These rules supplement the **OVERDARE Community Guidelines** and the **Creator Terms of Service**. All platform‑wide content restrictions continue to apply in the Forum. *** ### Purpose and Scope * Foster constructive, creator‑centric discussion about worlds, assets, payouts, and technical workflows in OVERDARE. * Apply to everything you post or attach in the Forum—threads, replies, reactions, profile images, and links. ### Eligibility * Only creators who have agreed to the Creator Terms may sign in. * Each person may hold only one Forum account. Impersonation or alternate (“sock‑puppet”) accounts are prohibited. ### Respectful Conduct * **No harassment or personal attacks.** Disagree with ideas, never with people. * **No hate, bigotry, or discriminatory language** on the basis of race, nationality, religion, gender, orientation, disability, or any protected class. * **No NSFW or shocking content.** Keep discussion safe for work and minors. * Follow thread topics; moderators may move or close off‑topic posts. ### Spam and Self‑Promotion * Do not repost the same content, bump threads, or flood with emoji reactions. * Advertising outside services, NFT drops, referral codes, or paid surveys is forbidden. ### Confidentiality & Privacy * Treat the Forum as a public venue: search engines may index posts. * Never share personal data, private business information, or unreleased OVERDARE materials. * Internal roadmaps and staff‑only discussions belong in gated channels, not public boards. ### Intellectual Property * You own the assets you post, but by uploading you grant OVERDARE the licence described in the Creator Terms. * Do not share third‑party assets unless you hold the rights or the asset is openly licensed. ### Moderation and Enforcement Violations escalate through these tiers; moderators may skip steps for severe issues. * **Notice** – public or private reminder; post may be edited or merged. * **Warning** * First warning; suspension of 1 day * Second warning; suspension of 5 days * Third warning; permanent ban * **Permanent Ban** – account removal for child‑safety issues, doxxing, severe IP theft, or continued abuse after prior suspensions. ### Reporting Content Use the flag button beneath any post. False or abusive reports may themselves lead to penalties. ### Appeals If you believe a moderation action was in error, email `ovdr_support@overdare.com` within seven (7) days and include relevant links and context. Generic “unban me” requests will be dismissed. ### Updates to These Guidelines These rules may evolve as the community grows. Changes take effect upon posting; we’ll announce material updates in the Notice category within the Forum. The final interpretation of these Guidelines rests with OVERDARE. *** For broader content rules, read the full [Community Guidelines](/overdare/policy/overdare-community-guidelines.md).\ Thank you for helping keep the Forum productive and welcoming! --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
