Community Guidelines

KindredAdvice is built on kindness, trust, and respect. These guidelines keep our community safe for everyone.

Be Kind and Supportive

People come to KindredAdvice in vulnerable moments. Respond with the empathy you'd want someone to show you.

Offer genuine advice, not judgment. You can disagree respectfully — that's healthy discussion. Personal attacks are not.

Remember: you're hearing one side of a story. Stay open-minded.

Keep Content Appropriate

Do not post explicit sexual content, graphic violence, or disturbing imagery.

No hate speech based on race, gender, sexuality, religion, disability, or any other characteristic.

No harassment, threatening language, or doxxing of any kind.

Spam and self-promotion are not allowed.

Protect Privacy

Never share someone else's personal information without their consent.

If you include screenshots or photos of others, blur out identifying information like names and faces when possible.

What's shared here should stay here — don't screenshot and share others' posts.

Consequences

Warning: First-time minor violations receive a formal warning. The content will be removed.

Temporary Ban: Repeated or moderate violations result in a suspension ranging from 1–30 days.

Permanent Ban: Severe violations — including harassment, explicit content, or hate speech — result in a permanent ban with no appeal.

Content that receives 5 or more reports is automatically hidden for admin review.

Reporting

Every request, reply, and image has a "Report" link. Use it if something feels wrong.

Our admin team reviews all reports. False reporting to harass others is itself a violation.

Reports are anonymous — the person being reported will not know who flagged them.
