Community guidelines
SecondChapter is a community of adults. These guidelines are short on purpose.
- Be respectful
- Disagree kindly. Treat people the way you'd like to be treated over coffee.
- Be genuine
- Use your real name and photo. No impersonation or fake identities.
- Respect someone's decision
- If someone chooses not to connect or reply, let it be. Persistent unwanted contact isn't okay.
- Romance is fine — pressure isn't
- Relationships between consenting adults happen. Explicit messages without consent, persistent advances or harassment after a no do not.
- No scams or financial exploitation
- Don't ask members for money, investments or payments.
- Keep it personal, not commercial
- Personal profiles aren't for prospecting. Mass outreach by agents, advisers or service businesses isn't allowed.
- No hate, threats or harassment
- Zero tolerance for abuse based on who someone is.
- No spam
- No repeated identical messages, link-dropping or mass requests.
- Respect privacy
- Don't share other members' details or conversations without permission.
Breaking these guidelines can lead to a reminder, restrictions, or suspension. See also Staying safe on SecondChapter.
