#art server

✦ I’m happy to discuss things, but I won’t argue about rules. If I ask you to stop doing something, please do so to avoid a mute or ban.

✦ If you see trouble, @ me or my mods using the @ Librarian role.

✦ You must be 21+ to enter this server. If I find you lied to access it, you will be kicked immediately and not allowed back when you come of age.

Exception: if someone in here directly vouches for you, 20 is okay; below that is not.

✦ I will not allow drama in this server. If you have issues with another member, block them and move on. If you believe someone is a danger to others, contact me privately with proof. I will not act on unsubstantiated claims.

✦ Absolutely no discourse, this isn’t Twitter. Everyone here is an adult; I expect you to differentiate fiction from reality. Problematic concepts and themes may appear and will be discussed. Antis and pro-censorship people are not welcome. If that makes you uncomfortable, you’re free to step away.

✦ I don’t keep trigger lists or blacklists. I have severe memory issues and cannot maintain them. Please manage your own experience and step away quietly from conversations that make you uncomfortable. You won’t get in trouble for ceasing engagement. Tone indicators are not enforced for the same reason.

✦ Ask before you DM other members.

✦ Try to keep topics in the appropriate channels. But conversations sometimes happen in odd places and that’s okay.

✦ There is no vent chat in this server and there never will be.

✦ Keep things to the proper channels, especially NSFW topics. Heavy NSFW (Incest, Feral, Gore, Weight Gain/Loss, etc.) belongs in the Hard NSFW channel. Light NSFW, like handcuffs, can stay in normal NSFW. Do not kinkshame anyone.

✦ Engage with others’ creations. This server exists to uplift fellow artists and celebrate storytelling. Every story craves a reader. Try to engage with posts beyond emoji reactions, even a simple compliment counts.

✦ If you tag a thread as Dead Dove, include content warnings in the first post. Seeing the Dead Dove tag means you are responsible for your own safety.

✦ You may pass the invite to this server privately once approved, but do not post it publicly. Only the Admin may post it.

✦ Each forum has guidelines; most are self-explanatory.

✦ What counts as Soft vs. Hard NSFW isn’t enforced strictly, but intense kinks should go in Hard.

✦ Fandom OCs are welcome, and there’s a dedicated space for them. However, this is not a fandom server. Please focus on your OCs in that universe rather than media alone. AUs of canon characters are not allowed.

✦ This server is System Friendly and run by an Endogenic system. Sysmeds and syscourse will not be tolerated. Treat Systems (Endo or Traumagenic) with fictional characters as normal members; do not use Pluralkit for roleplay.

✦ “Headworld” refers to any original, non-fandom setting.

✦ Do not feel bad about “spamming” forums. They exist to be filled. Making 50 threads in a row is fine; this is a Library.

✦ No AI discourse, in any direction. Even offhand mentions (I.E 'I was trying to find pictures of turtles but all I found was AI slop) will result in a wrist-slap. This is the one space 100% free from AI discussion.

✦ No discourse in general. This isn’t the place, this includes going out of your way to create negative discussion of Media you hate, if you find yourself about to come here to talk about something or someone you dislike or hate, I invite you to instead talk about something you like! Media, art, your own art, etc!

✦ The Admin’s name means “To Your Other Self.”
