FriendsBook Community Guidelines
Our common-sense standards to foster a respectful, honest, and creative environment for friends and creators across India.
Respectful Communication & Anti-Bullying
Disagreements and spirited cultural debates are welcome, but targeted personal attacks, coordinated harassment mobs, doxxing (publishing private telephone numbers or residential addresses), and hateful slurs targeting religion, gender, caste, or disability have zero tolerance.
Authentic Identity & Anti-Impersonation
Do not impersonate other individuals, public figures, government agencies, or commercial organizations. Parody or fan accounts must state their status clearly in their username and bio. Creating secondary burner accounts to evade bans is strictly prohibited.
Safety, Non-Violence & Self-Harm Prevention
Content encouraging suicide, self-inflicted harm, physical assaults, acts of terrorism, or criminal extortion will be removed immediately. Accounts posting such content face instant permanent termination and mandatory reporting to law enforcement authorities.
Intellectual Property & Original Creation
Only upload photos, videos, vertical Reels, and music clips that you own or have explicit authorization to share. Respect fellow creators and Indian copyright laws. Valid DMCA takedown notices are processed within 24 hours.
Spam, Bots & Inorganic Engagement
Do not operate automated posting scripts, follower-farming loops, fake engagement circles, or mass-unsolicited direct messaging campaigns. Our velocity limiters automatically quarantine abusive bot traffic.
Fraud, Scams & Financial Exploitation
Do not promote deceptive pyramid schemes, fake investment promises, credential-phishing links, or unverified giveaway scams. Engaging in financial deception will lead to permanent expulsion.
How We Enforce Violations
When content is reported or flagged, our moderation operators review the context and issue progressive penalties:
The violating post, story, or comment is permanently removed from all feeds.
A formal notification is logged on your profile dashboard explaining the rule breach.
Posting and messaging permissions are locked for 24 hours to 14 days.
Severe or persistent infractions trigger irreversible account termination.
