Welcome to Tripharu

Tripharu is a vast network of communities that are created, run, and populated by you, the Tripharu users.

Through these communities, you can post, comment, vote, discuss, learn, debate, support, and connect with people who share your interests. We encourage you to find—or even create—your home on Tripharu.

While not every community may be for you (and you may find some unrelatable or even offensive), no community should be used as a weapon. Communities should create a sense of belonging for their members, not diminish it for others. Everyone on Tripharu should expect privacy and safety, so please respect the privacy and safety of others.

Every community on Tripharu is defined by its users. Some of these users help manage the community as moderators. The culture of each community is shaped explicitly by the community rules enforced by moderators, and implicitly by the upvotes, downvotes, and discussions of its members. Please abide by the rules of the communities you participate in, and do not interfere with those in which you are not a member.

Below the rules governing each community are the platform-wide rules that apply to everyone on Tripharu. These rules are enforced by us, the admins.

Rules

Rule 1

Remember the human. Tripharu is a place for creating community and belonging, not for attacking marginalized or vulnerable groups of people. Everyone has a right to use Tripharu free of harassment, bullying, and threats of violence. Communities and users that incite violence or promote hate based on identity or vulnerability will be banned.

Rule 2

Abide by community rules. Post authentic content in communities where you have a personal interest, and do not engage in content manipulation (including spamming, vote manipulation, ban evasion, or subscriber fraud) or disrupt Tripharu communities.

Rule 3

Respect the privacy of others. Instigating harassment, for example by revealing someone’s personal or confidential information, is not allowed. Never post or threaten to post intimate or sexually explicit media of someone without their consent.

Rule 4

Do not share or encourage the sharing of sexual, abusive, or suggestive content involving minors. Any predatory or inappropriate behavior involving a minor is strictly prohibited.

Rule 5

You don’t have to use your real name to use Tripharu, but don’t impersonate an individual or an entity in a misleading or deceptive manner.

Rule 6

Ensure people have predictable experiences on Tripharu by properly labeling content and communities, particularly content that is graphic, sexually explicit, or offensive.

Rule 7

Keep it legal, and avoid posting illegal content or soliciting or facilitating illegal or prohibited transactions.

Rule 8

Don’t break the site or do anything that interferes with the normal use of Tripharu.

Enforcement

We have a variety of ways to enforce our rules, including, but not limited to:

  • Asking you nicely to stop
  • Asking you less nicely
  • Temporary or permanent suspension of accounts
  • Removing privileges or adding restrictions to accounts
  • Adding restrictions to Tripharu communities, such as NSFW tags or Quarantining
  • Removing content
  • Banning of Tripharu communities

Tripharu and its communities are what we make of them together. Let’s ensure we follow both the letter and the spirit of the rules for a safe and engaging experience.
