SynapseChat Global Community Rules

To ensure a safe and productive environment for all connected communities, the following rules apply network-wide. Violations may result in warnings, temporary suspensions, or permanent bans for individual users or entire servers.

🛡️ Safety & Content

1. Zero Tolerance for Hate Speech No slurs, racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, or targeted harassment. Discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, age, or disability is strictly prohibited. Violators will be globally banned immediately without warning.

2. No NSFW, Gore, or Shock Content This is a clean network. No nudity, sexual content, extreme violence, gore, or disturbing imagery is allowed. This extends to profile pictures, usernames, and status messages.

3. No Illegal Activities or Doxxing Discussion of hacking, carding, piracy, or other illegal acts is prohibited. Sharing real-life personal information (doxxing) of any individual is a severe violation that will result in an immediate permanent ban and a report to Discord Trust & Safety.

4. No Self-Harm or Violent Extremism We prioritize user safety. Any encouragement of suicide, self-harm, or promotion of violent extremist ideologies will be reported directly to Discord Trust & Safety and relevant authorities.

🚫 Conduct & Spam

5. No Spamming or Trolling Do not flood the chat, copy-paste repeated text, use "wall-text," or intentionally provoke arguments (flamebaiting).

6. No Malicious Text or "Zalgo" Do not use "glitched" text (Zalgo), invisible characters, or massive copy-pastes that disrupt the chat layout for mobile users.

7. English Language Only To ensure safety and effective global moderation, all messages in the public relay must be in English.

8. No "Raiding" or Brigading Do not organize groups to harass specific users or other servers in the network. If a server is found to be encouraging its members to "troll" the global chat, the entire server will be blacklisted.

📢 Advertising & Solicitation

9. No Unauthorized Advertising Do not post Discord Server Invites, URL links, social media handles, or promotional material of any kind in the public chat. Do not DM users from other servers to advertise.

10. Strict Ad System Monopoly The ONLY authorized way to advertise on this network is via the Official SynapseChat Ad System. Any attempt to bypass this (e.g., "DM me for invite," broken links, QR codes) is a bannable offense.

11. No "Begging" or Transactional Chat Do not ask others for Discord Nitro, money, game codes, or free accounts. This network is for conversation, not commerce.

⚖️ Identity & Authority

12. No Impersonation Do not pretend to be SynapseChat staff, the Founder, or another server owner. Using a username or profile picture to mislead others is prohibited.

13. Respect Staff Authority Staff decisions are final. Do not argue with moderation actions in the public relay. Appeals must be handled privately via a Support Ticket.

14. No "Mini-Modding" Do not try to enforce the rules yourself. If you see a violation, use the /report command. Arguing with rule-breakers only adds to the noise.

15. Admin Discretion The SynapseChat administration reserves the right to remove any user or server from the network at any time if they are deemed harmful to the community, even if a specific rule was not technically broken.

🤖 Technical Integrity

16. No Bot-on-Bot Interaction Do not connect other bots (like auto-responders or leveling bots) to the relay channel. Automated messages confuse the conversation and will result in a server ban.

17. No Ban Evasion Using an alternative account to bypass a server or global ban will result in a permanent blacklist for all your known accounts.
