Rules On Reporting:

While it is encouraged to report any rule breaker within reason, try not to misuse the report button. Do not report anything unless it is actually worth reporting - this includes (but is not limited to) topics that have already been locked.

In short, the following is what is deemed worth reporting by the Coconutery Moderators Team:
 

• Racist/homophobic/transphobic/sexist posts
• File sharing/download links/snippets of upcoming releases (audio/video)
• Duplicate accounts/previously banned members
• ****ography/nudity
• Website promoters (threads/posts/messages)
• Stalking/posting personal information without permission (threads/posts/messages)
• Spam
• Death threats/wishes

Automatic moderation:

Members can help contribute! A post that receives 3 or more reports from the Coconutery will automatically be hidden from view.

We're in this together:

Bear in mind that we are human and doing our best. Please think before reporting. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out. Communication is key.

We're here for you. Thank you for being a part of the Coconutery!
