The only NSFW posts that can be public are mild jokes and artistic nudity. You may publicly post cropped or censored versions of NSFW art pieces to promote a NSFW art account as long as the account otherwise follows our rules. Discussion of kink that is not explicitly sexual (e.g. talking about collars or restraints), or discussion or images of sex toys, is still considered NSFW and should not be public.

Nudes, lingerie photos and suggestive selfies (e.g. shots of cleavage or a person’s thighs) should always be unlisted. If the intent is to make the viewer aroused or attracted to you, it’s suggestive and shouldn’t be shared publicly on a 13+ site.

We do not allow pedophilic content, endorsement of pedophilia, or anything endorsing known pedophiles, including but not limited to images, art, and written content of both real and fictional people. We strongly discourage discussion or debate over whether specific fictional cases qualify as pedophilia.

This specifically includes:

• Drawn, written or visual child pornography depicting any real life or fictional minor
• Speculation or jokes about the sex life, kinks, or genitalia of any real life or fictional minor
• Any depiction of a romantic relationship between an adult and a character who is under the age of 18 in the source material, whether or not it is explicitly sexual
• "Aging up" characters who are canonically under 18 for NSFW content
• Sexual content of a character who retains a childlike appearance and mannerisms despite being "an adult" in their source material
• NSFW content of media primarily aimed at children, even if the characters are implied to be adults (e.g. Cookie Run, My Little Pony)
• Suggestive art of minors, e.g. in skimpy or sexualized outfits
• Any form of age regression kink or ageplay such as DDLG or ABDL
• Babyfur, lolicon, or shotacon
• MAPs, NOMAPs, and MAP supporters

Posting or boosting ay of the above content is grounds for an immediate suspension.

We do not allow any fictional or real life material that glorifies or supports incestuous relationships. This includes but is not limited to depictions of romantic and/or sexual relationships between siblings, parents and children, cousins, or other relatives, whether or not they are related by blood. Depictions of fictional characters in alternate universes where they are not related are still a violation of this rule. We strongly discourage discussion or debate over whether specific fictional cases qualify as incest.

Posting or boosting any of the above content is grounds for an immediate suspension.

Any depiction of sexual acts on or by a real or realistically drawn animal; NSFW of clearly animal characters such as Pokemon; sexual content between realistic furry characters and humans; jokes implying bestiality or zoophilia.

Any content depicting graphic violence, torture or gore of minors, or content romanticizing real life violence such as serial killers.

We do not tolerate serious shipping of real people (actors, band members, Youtubers....), and users who post such content will be suspended. Please do not "headcanon" the sexualities, gender identities, or other identities of real people as if they were fictional characters.

Any endorsement of these ideologies is cause for an instant ban. Additionally, images of swastikas or other Nazi imagery, any Nazi flagging such as the use of 14/88 or phrases emulating the 14 words, Confederate flag imagery, or any white supremacist flagging are never allowed on Trollian and will be cause for suspension.

We defederate with any account or instance found to be run by a cop.

We aren’t the best place for kink, but we do generally allow it if it follows the NSFW rules above. However, we prohibit uncritical discussion/endorsement of any kink that is nonconsensual or dubiously consensual, or romanticizes lack of consent; dangerous or potentially fatal; based in romanticization of incest or pedophilia, or sexualizes children’s toys or other objects primarily for children; or fetishizes a specific race, gender identity or body type.

Examples: trap/futa, any kink fetishizing fat people, CNC/rape play, race play, abduction, forced body modification, hypnosis kink, necrophilia, snuff, somnophilia, teacher/student, IRL cannibalism/vore kink or any kink involving mutilation

Users are free to reclaim slurs for themselves, in conversation with others who are comfortable, or in their username, display name or bio. Please keep in mind that other users may have varying levels of comfort with certain slurs and use content warnings at your discretion, especially if posting to the public timeline. You may be asked by a mod to use a CW for a reclaimed slur. However, slurs directed at another user without their permission or in a violent or harassing manner, or the use of slurs which you cannot reclaim, are not acceptable and will result in action against your account depending on the context and severity of the situation.

This includes the endorsement of users or public figures who promote discrimination or bigotry. Most should be self explanatory, but where necessary there are clarifications of types of bigotry that are not as commonly made explicitly prohibited.

• Racism: blackface, yellowface, etc.; whitewashed art or graphics; mocking the accents or languages of people of color; racist slurs or derogatory terms.
• Sexism
• Antisemitism: Hitler jokes; caricatures of Jewish people; mocking commonly Jewish features, such as large noses or thick eyebrows; blood libel; “lizard people” jokes, which reference antisemitic conspiracy theories about how Jewish people secretly control the world; Nazi uniforms or similar imagery in costumes, and characters who evoke Nazi imagery; defamatory generalizations.
• Islamophobia:suicide bombing jokes; racist parodies of Muslims; claims that Islam is sexist/violent; mocking or appropriating the hijab; defamatory generalizations.
• Homophobia, lesbophobia, biphobia.
• Transphobia: repeated and/or intentional misgendering of any user or other trans person; harassing, mocking or vaguing any user or group of users for their gender identity or pronoun choice.
• We will automatically permaban users who are found to be affiliated with specific groups that discriminate against LGBT individuals, such as “radical feminists”/”gender critical”, “transmedicalists”, and “truscum”. This instance welcomes trans and nonbinary individuals and will not tolerate users who will create an unsafe environment for them.
• Fatphobia
• Ableism
• Other bigotry: content disrespecting or mocking other groups such as asexual or aromantic people, HIV positive people, sex workers, addicts, or survivors of any type of abuse, as well as any other marginalized group not mentioned

Examples:

• Stalking
• Unwelcome and repeated interaction
• Bullying or harassing posts or messages
• Block or ban evasion
• Sexual harassment
• False and needless reports also fall under harassment and are grounds for action to be taken against your own account; if excessive enough, it will be met with a ban.
• Malicious vagues; in general, please try to avoid vaguing other users, especially on the public timeline.
• Certain forms of trolling
• Posts intended to incite arguments or provoke certain users or groups; it's fine to have political discussions, but if an argument gets too heated, please restrict posts to your own followers or take it to a DM.

Trigger warnings for media, news, etc.; discussion of current events that fall into one of the “must CW” categories; mild drawn gore and body horror; mild alcohol or drug references; mildly NSFW jokes; mild death mentions; artistic nudity.

Other topics in the “must CW” category should always be unlisted or followers only, especially posts that go in depth about a triggering subject.

Personal talk and certain topics are often CWed positive/negative/neutral as a courtesy; these are sometimes abbreviated +, -, ~. Ex. “mh (~)” or “uspol, neg”

• Politics (commonly abbreviated pol or [country]pol)
• Mental health (mh)
• Venting
• Physical health (ph)
• Spoilers for new/popular media
• Selfies/Eye contact (ec)
• Insects/spiders
• Menstruation
• Dysphoria
• Racism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, etc
• Flashing/rapidly moving GIFs
• Long posts with large images

You may be asked by a mod to delete and redraft a post with a better CW, even if it doesn’t fall into this category. Please use your common sense and warn for anything that may be upsetting or disrupting for others.

If you have less common triggers or things you don’t want to see, we suggest using the filtering system.

• Remove avatars and headers that violate our rules
• View and change users' email addresses; we only change emails either to release the URL of a suspended account to a user who requests it, or to correct a misspelled email address.
• Confirm accounts and resend confirmation emails
• View users' most recent IP addresses; generally we do not save or track IPs and will only use this in cases of ban evasion or with dangerous users.

• Send warnings by email; we generally only use this in certain cases when giving a strike to a user.
• Silence an account, which forces all their posts to be unlisted so none of them will show up on public timelines
• Suspend an account; we almost always send an email explanation now that Mastodon has a native warning system, except in cases like spambots
• Silence instances, which keeps their posts off of our federated timeline but still allows users to follow and be followed by them
• Defederate with instances, which blocks them from interacting with our users or posting to our federated timeline
• Delete Trollian's copy of a post from an off instance user; this removes the copy stored on our server from our federated timeline, but does nothing to the original post on the other instance
• Silence an off instance account, which keeps their posts off of our federated timeline but still allows users to follow and be followed by them
• Suspend an off instance account, which defederates them and blocks them from interacting with our users or posting to our federated timeline, but does nothing to the original account on the other instance

• Warning

  DMed warning by a mod explaining what rule you violated; usually the post in question is deleted or marked sensitive.

• Strike

  Occurs either after multiple infractions, or one very serious infraction that is not grounds for suspension on its own. We keep track of users with strikes and number of strikes. Three strikes, or sometimes less in certain cases, is grounds for suspension. We will both DM and email a warning that you have received a strike.

• Silencing

  Forces all posts to be unlisted so none of them will show up on public timelines. Generally, we use this in cases of spammy posts, NSFW or triggering posting on public, or along with a strike or serious warning. Silences are removed after a set time limit which will increase after the first time a user has to be silenced.

• Suspension

  A ban. Most prohibited content will mean an instant suspension, although in some cases it may only be a warning or strike. We will also suspend after multiple strikes. Even if we suspend with no warning, you will always receive an email explanation.
