Content Rules

1. We prohibit:​

1. NSFW, Piracy, & Other Illegal Content​

  • This is a PG-13 server, therefore NSFW is strictly prohibited, as is discussion surrounding NSFW topics. This includes gore, porn, etc., and content considered “borderline” may still result in action. If you are unsure, please ask a mod.
  • We do not condone piracy. You are not allowed to share or explain means of pirating content, nor request it. This includes sharing files, links, or streams to pirated comics, movies, and shows, as well as illegally-recorded ‘cam footage’.
  • You may suggest a movie to stream, and we can try organising a legal event.

2. Spam​

  • Sending large, frequent, repetitive, and/or unwanted messages is considered spam and not allowed. This also includes memes, copypastas, mentioning large numbers of users, etc. Please do not also spam as an attempt to level up quicker, as that is set to one message per minute.

3. Political Topics​

  • Strong discussion about politics is not allowed. We are a server centred around the Marvel franchise, so political discussion that is directly related to Marvel is allowed in moderation and with respect for others.
  • However, we allow discussion about religion and LGBTQ+ and expect respect towards all races, genders, religions, cultures, etc. Everyone has their own beliefs - do not be dismissive or discriminatory against a certain community or minority.

4. Language​

  • We do not allow any slurs in this server. Profanity is allowed, as long as it is not used excessively or to insult anybody. Please keep in mind that this is a PG-13 server.
  • As we are an English-speaking server and can only provide Moderation support in English, we do not allow discussion in foreign languages.

5. Alt Accounts​

  • Alt accounts are not allowed in the server. Using an alt account to evade moderative actions such as a mute or a ban, will result in the alt account getting banned (and possibly harsher action on your main account). Using an alt account for any other purpose will result in the alt account getting kicked.
  • If you lost access to your old account, please contact @Marvel Modmail with your new account so we don't end up kicking your new account.

6. Advertisements​

  • Advertising is not allowed. This includes:
  • Server invites
  • Self-promotion of other Social Media, such as YouTube, Instagram, etc. (this is allowed in a limited quantity in #share-fan-creations and #share-fan-creations-forum, see rule 3.2)
  • If you feel like you have a valid reason and would like to request an exception, please contact Modmail.

7. Roleplay​

  • Roleplay is disruptive to conversation, therefore not allowed. Please do not invoke nor incite roleplay.
  • Impersonation of people (real & fictional), characters, users, etc is prohibited.

2. Use appropriate channels​

  • We provide numerous channels for various topics. Please stick to these topics when you are chatting in these channels, and move to a more appropriate channel if you do not.

1. Spoiler Rules​

We provide numerous spaces to discuss spoilers for recent content. We expect all users to respect and follow these rules.

  • Marvel Content
  • Unreleased content: Leaks, rumours, non-primary promotion, etc. belong in #comic-spoilers | #future-screen-spoilers
  • New Comics: Comics that are less than 1 week old belong in #comic-spoilers.
  • Films and Shows: Recently-released films and shows will have their own dedicated spoiler channel. Spoilers must be kept in this channel and #future-screen-spoilers until the dedicated channel has been closed.
  • Non-Marvel Content
  • For non-Marvel films, shows, and games that are less than 1 month old, please use the appropriate thread in #non-marvel-spoilers. If a thread does not exist, please request it!

3. Content Sharing​

1. Content​

  • Only share creations you made yourself. The art channels are there for you to share your own art, not art by other creators that you like.
  • You are allowed to share art of people you know, as long as they consent to you sharing their art and you give them credit.
  • You can share creations of any kind, be it drawings, paintings, comics, poems, cosplay, 3D prints, video edits, etc.
  • Don't share low-effort creations. Troll posts will be removed. You are allowed to share progress updates of what you are working on.

2. Self-Promotion​

  • Self-promotion in the art channels is allowed in limited capacity. You are allowed to share links to social media platforms where you share your art, such as YouTube, Instagram, etc.
  • You are only allowed to share such links if accompanied by a relevant post. For example, you can share a post of a drawing you made along with a link to your social media where you share more art. You cannot just simply share a link to your socials without an accompanying post.
  • Promotion for services that are paid are not allowed in any capacity. You cannot share links to web shops, promote doing commissions, etc.

3. AI Creations​

  • As per rule 3.1, it is only allowed to share creations made by yourself or people you know. As such, sharing creations made by AI is not allowed as it is not made by yourself.
  • However, if you create something where you did a significant part, and you used AI for part of it, it is allowed to share this, as long as you are clear about using AI. For example, if you write a comic book by yourself and use AI for the art, you are allowed to share this.

4. Forum Tags​

  • When making a forum post, make sure to apply the appropriate forum tags. If your post includes AI, self promotion or spoilers and you did not apply the appropriate tags, your post will be removed.

5. Server Rules​

  • All other server rules still apply in the art channels. As such, you are not allowed to share NSFW creations or strongly political creations.
  • If you want to share creations that contain spoilers for upcoming or recent releases, you need to spoiler mark your creations along with stating what movie/show/game/etc. it contains spoilers for.

Behaviour Rules

4. We expect:​

1. No drama​

  • This is not a place for drama. If you have an issue with another user, please take it elsewhere or discuss it with staff via Modmail.
  • We ask that you do not bring your drama from elsewhere into our server.

2. No harassment​

  • Please do not harass other users. If you have an issue or are being harassed, please discuss this with staff via Modmail.

3. Respectfulness​

  • Be respectful of everybody, even if they do not share the same opinion as you.
  • This applies both to people within the server, and also when discussing other people outside of the server.

5. Don’t be a rules lawyer​

  • These rules are an outline of what we expect in our server. This server’s moderators reserve the right to make decisions based on their own judgement, even if something is not explicitly in breach of these rules.
  • We ask that you do not “minimod” - moderators enforce the rules such that you do not need to yourself.
  • Please follow these rules as they exist for the benefit of the health and wellbeing of the community.

6. Follow Discord’s ToS & Guidelines​

  • As a public community on Discord, our rules are a superset of Discord’s own Terms of Service and Guidelines, which we also enforce.
  • Terms of Service - https://dis.gd/tos
  • Community Guidelines - https://dis.gd/guidelines

-# The staff of the Marvel Discord may update or amend these rules at any time without notice.
