Community Guidelines

Your own football — clips, training moments, matches, what you’re working on. Encouragement and genuine feedback on someone else’s post. Nothing that isn’t yours to share, and nothing that turns a football post into something else.

• Harassment, threats, or targeting a specific person repeatedly.
• Impersonating another player, coach or club.
• Anything that endangers, exploits or inappropriately targets a young player — this is treated as a safeguarding matter, not an ordinary content dispute, and acted on directly rather than left to community reporting alone.
• Spam, and content that has nothing to do with football.

Blocking someone is immediate and works in both directions: their posts stop reaching you, and yours stop reaching them, enforced by the database rather than left to the interface to hide. It also removes any follow between you. The person you block is not told, and cannot see that you blocked them.

Any post can be reported, with a reason — including one specifically for a concern about a young player, separate from the general options. Reports are read only by us, never by the person reported. Nothing automated acts on a report by itself: a report is a person asking us to look, and we do, rather than a vote that removes content on its own.

We review it and act directly — that can mean removing a post, restricting an account, or, for a safeguarding report, treating it with the urgency that deserves regardless of how few reports it has. We don’t publish a strike system or an appeals ladder here, because the honest answer is that each case gets looked at rather than run through a formula.

A post defaults to visible to every signed-in user. A per-post option to restrict it to your own followers exists in the product and may become the default later — nothing here should be read as a promise that today’s default is permanent.
