Community Guidelines
Last updated: June 2026Aurora Sky exists for live, real conversation between real people. No endless feeds, no permanent record — just people showing up and talking. These guidelines exist to keep that feeling intact. They're part of our Terms of Service.
The basics
- Be a real person, treating other real people well. Disagreement is fine. Cruelty isn't.
- No harassment, threats, or targeted abuse. This includes piling on someone, repeated unwanted contact, or trying to scare or intimidate another user.
- No sharing someone else's private information (their address, workplace, phone number, etc.) without their consent.
- No illegal content, ever. This includes anything that sexualises or exploits a minor in any way. Reports involving a minor's safety are treated as the highest priority and may be escalated directly to authorities.
- No impersonation. Don't pretend to be someone else, or pretend to represent an organisation you don't.
- No spam, scams, or automated activity. Rooms are for real conversation, not bots or repeated promotional content.
Rooms
Anyone can create a room around a topic they care about. As a creator, you're not a moderator by default, but you're expected to help set the tone. Persistent rooms carry extra expectations, since more people rely on them being well-kept.
Badges
Badges reflect real things — verified accounts, sustained positive participation, recognised organisations. They aren't for sale and can be removed if the behaviour or status behind them no longer holds.
Manaia
Manaia is a quiet space for anyone affected by domestic or family violence. What's shared there isn't saved. If someone is in immediate danger, the right next step is calling 000, not waiting on a reply in the app.
Reporting and consequences
If you see something that breaches these guidelines, use the report option on the message. Reports are reviewed, and depending on severity, outcomes can range from a warning to a temporary mute to a permanent ban. Reports involving immediate danger to someone's safety are not treated the same as ordinary disputes and may be escalated to authorities where appropriate.
Why this matters
These guidelines aren't here to make Aurora Sky feel corporate. They're here so the people actually using it — including the ones who came here on a hard day — can trust that this is a place worth showing up to.
