Community guidelines
HerThirdSpace works because members look after each other. These are our house rules.
1. Be kind, even when you disagree
No harassment, bullying, insults or piling on. Disagree with ideas, not people.
2. Protect each other's privacy
Never share anyone's real name, contact details, photos or location, or try to work out who is behind a room pseudonym. Don't share screenshots from private rooms.
3. Share experience, not prescriptions
Talking about your symptoms, treatments and what worked for you is welcome. Telling others to stop medication, avoid doctors, or try unproven cures is not.
4. No selling, recruiting or exploiting
No product promotion, affiliate codes, MLM recruiting, paid services or fundraising without moderator approval.
5. No hate or threats
Content that attacks people for who they are, or threatens anyone with harm, is removed and may lead to suspension.
6. Keep it in the right room
Use the topic tags honestly so members who've hidden a topic don't see it. Report tags that look wrong.
Health information
Conversations here are peer support, not medical advice. Members aren’t verified health professionals, even when they share professional experience. Talk to a qualified clinician before changing any treatment.
If you or someone else is in danger
Contact your local emergency services now. If you’re having thoughts of harming yourself, please reach out to a local crisis line or someone you trust. Moderators review reports, but can’t provide emergency help.
How moderation works
- Use Report on any post or reply. The author is never told who reported it.
- Automated checks flag possible problems for a person to review. They never remove health discussions on their own.
- Room moderators look after their rooms. Platform moderators handle warnings, suspensions and appeals.
- If a decision affects you, you’ll see it in Profile → Safety with the reason, and you can appeal within 30 days.
- Only platform moderators can ever link a room pseudonym to an account, only for safety investigations, and every lookup is logged.
