🖋️ Bijou Essentials Posting Guidelines

At Bijou Essentials, we encourage open, honest, and thoughtful conversation.
To help keep discussions positive, respectful, and easy to navigate, please follow these posting guidelines:

---

1. Post in the Right Place

• Please choose the most appropriate forum section for your topic.

• If you’re unsure where something belongs, don’t worry — post your best guess and a moderator can help move it if needed.

2. Use Clear Titles and Tags

• Title your threads clearly to help others know what to expect.

• When discussing sensitive or graphic topics, include a Content Warning (CW) or Trigger Warning (TW) in the title or at the start of your post (e.g., [CW: Edge Play]).

3. Respectful Discussions Only

• Disagreeing is fine — disrespect is not.

• Attack ideas, not people.

• Assume good intent, but prioritize clear communication.

4. No Spam, Trolling, or Self-Promotion Without Permission

• Spam, irrelevant advertising, or mass promotions will be removed.

• Self-promotion of personal projects, products, or services is welcome only if it genuinely serves the community and is disclosed transparently.

• If unsure whether something is appropriate to share, please ask a moderator first.

5. Be Mindful of Graphic Content

• While adult discussions are welcome, explicit imagery should be posted with care.

• Always mark posts containing explicit content with appropriate warnings.

• Follow any forum-specific image or link posting rules.

6. Protect Privacy

• Do not post private messages, real names, personal photos, or identifying information of others without explicit consent.

• Respect anonymity — many users prefer to interact under scene names or aliases.

7. Keep Discussions Constructive

• When offering advice, be supportive, practical, and avoid judgment.

• “This worked for me” is often more helpful than “You’re doing it wrong.”

8. Limit Off-Topic Conversations

• Tangents happen, and that’s okay — but if a conversation drifts far from the original topic, consider starting a new thread.

• Help keep discussions useful and findable for future readers.

9. Follow Moderator Directions

• If a moderator moves, edits, or locks a thread, please respect their decision.

• If you have concerns about moderation actions, contact the team privately.

10. Remember: This is a Shared Space

• Every post contributes to the atmosphere of the community.

• Post with the same care you’d want others to show you.
