Community Guidelines

Last updated: July 27, 2026

ConfessChain is an anonymous storytelling space. These guidelines keep honesty possible without harm. Every post, reply, and chat message must follow them. Violations can be reported, hidden, or banned.

Who can use ConfessChain

• You may post without creating a traditional account, but you are still responsible for what you write.
• Anonymity is for emotional honesty — not for targeting real people.

Allowed

• Personal stories, regrets, feelings, and unfinished thoughts written in your own words
• Continuing someone else's chain with empathy and honesty
• Discussing relationships, family, work, guilt, grief, and mental health experiences as personal narrative
• Asking for perspective — without demanding medical, legal, or financial advice
• Supportive anonymous conversation in private groups and public mood rooms

Not allowed

• Content involving anyone under 18 in a sexual or exploitative context
• Graphic sexual content, pornography, or solicitation
• Instructions or encouragement for suicide or self-harm (if you are in crisis, contact local emergency services)
• Hate speech, harassment, threats, or glorifying violence
• Doxxing: names, addresses, workplaces, schools, phone numbers, or social handles meant to expose someone
• Spam, scams, phishing, crypto/gift-card schemes, or promotional dumping
• Illegal activity instructions, drug trafficking, weapons sales, or fraud
• Impersonation intended to deceive or cause harm

Anonymous chat rules

• Do not ask people to reveal their name, address, workplace, school, phone number, or social accounts
• Do not try to identify or track a participant across rooms
• Do not harass, pressure, threaten, sexually solicit, or manipulate another participant
• Use mute, block, and report instead of escalating an unsafe interaction
• Private invite links and codes should only be shared with people you intend to invite
• Chat is peer conversation, not professional crisis, medical, legal, or financial support

How moderation works

Moderators review reported content and may hide posts/replies or ban identities that repeatedly break these rules. Mild inappropriate language is auto-masked (for example f**k) before publishing. Severe prohibited content is blocked entirely. Advertising is never an excuse for policy-violating content.

• Use the Report button on confessions and replies
• Reports are reviewed through the admin moderation tools
• Serious or illegal reports may be escalated as required by law

Before you post

• Remove identifying details about other people
• Do not include private messages, screenshots with names, or contact info
• Remember this is storytelling, not therapy or crisis care
• Read our Terms, Privacy Policy, and Disclaimer
