Community Guidelines

Effective September 29, 2026 · Last updated September 29, 2026 · Version 1.1

The short version

  • Be kind to the artist and to each other. Everyone here showed up for the work.
  • Disagree with ideas, not with people. Critique is welcome; cruelty isn't.
  • Keep it on topic, keep it honest, and don't spam.
  • Each Space sets its own tone. Its owner and moderators decide what stays.

This summary is here to help you read the rest. Where it differs from the detailed sections below, the detailed sections are the ones that count.

1. Why we have these

Comments are part of the room around a performance. Artists share unfinished, personal, risky work here, and audiences come to feel it together. These guidelines are how we keep that room a respectful container for everyone in it: the artist, the audience, and the people moderating.

2. What we ask of everyone

  • Respect people. No insults, slurs, or attacks on anyone's identity, including race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, age, or body.
  • No harassment. Don't pile on, follow someone from thread to thread, or keep replying to someone who has disengaged. Don't post anyone's private information.
  • No threats or glorified violence, and nothing that encourages self-harm.
  • No sexual content directed at a person, and nothing sexual involving minors, ever.
  • Critique the work honestly and with care. "The mix buried the vocals in the second half" helps. "This is garbage" doesn't.
  • Be yourself. Don't impersonate the artist, a moderator, or anyone else.
  • No spam or self-promotion. Don't repeat posts, advertise, or run schemes. Links aren't allowed in comments.
  • Respect spoilers and the moment. If a Space asks you not to reveal a setlist or an ending, don't.
  • Follow the Space's house rules. Some Spaces add their own, shown with these guidelines when you comment. They can be stricter than ours.

3. Who decides what stays

Each Space is run by its owner. Removal of comments is at the discretion of the Space's owner and the moderators they appoint. The Collectivision platform does not manually review or decide which individual comments are removed.

The exception is content that breaks the law or falls under the fast-track categories in our Acceptable Use Policy: sexual content involving minors, non-consensual intimate imagery, and credible threats of serious harm. We act on that whenever it's reported to us, wherever it appears.

When enough people in a Space report a comment (the owner sets how many), it's hidden until a moderator reviews it.

4. What moderators can do

Moderators can hold comments for approval, hide or delete them, pin them, and ban someone from commenting anywhere in that Space. If you're banned, you'll be told when you try to comment. We don't shadowban.

5. Reporting

Use Report on any comment to send it to that Space's moderators. For anything illegal or dangerous, also email reports@collectivision.net with a link. Reports made in good faith are always welcome, and false reports used to target someone are a violation in their own right.

6. Profile photos

The photo on your account appears beside your comments, so the same guidelines apply to it. Offensive profile photos are removed immediately — when enough people in a Space report one, or when a Space's moderators decide it should come down. Removing a photo removes it from your account; you can add a new one that follows these guidelines.

7. Your comments

You can edit or delete your own comments. If you comment without an account, you can do this from the browser you posted in. Comments are public to anyone who can view the video, event, playlist, or Space they're on.
