Community guidelines
Tickli is built on the belief that communities can make better decisions together. These guidelines exist to protect that promise. They apply to all content, behaviour, and interactions on the platform — including posts, comments, messages, group decisions, and agent interactions.
The rules
Treat others with respect
Disagreement is welcome; abuse is not. Debate ideas, not people. No personal attacks, harassment, or coordinated pile-ons.
- Say: "I disagree with this because…"
- Not: "You're an idiot for believing that"
Be honest
Don't spread deliberate misinformation. Don't impersonate others. Don't create fake accounts or astroturf.
Respect privacy
Don't share others' private information without consent (doxxing). Don't record private conversations without permission. Don't share data scraped from the platform.
No illegal content
Do not post content that violates UK or international law. This includes but is not limited to:
- Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) — reported to NCMEC and law enforcement immediately
- Terrorist content or glorification of violence
- Illegal goods or services
- Copyright-infringing material
Keep it constructive
Tickli is a platform for collective action. Spam, off-topic content, and low-effort posts reduce signal-to-noise for everyone. Groups can set their own content standards on top of these base rules.
AI interactions
Don't try to jailbreak, manipulate, or extract harmful outputs from agents. Don't use AI features to generate misinformation, create fake personas, or manipulate group decisions.
How we enforce these guidelines
Violations are handled by a combination of automated detection, community reporting, and human review. Consequences range from a warning to permanent account termination, depending on severity and history.
Group admins and moderators can enforce additional rules within their groups, subject to these base guidelines. They cannot override them.
If you believe content violates these guidelines, use the Report button (available on every post, comment, and profile). Reported content is then reviewed.
Appeals
If your content was removed or your account was actioned and you believe it was in error, you can appeal via appeals@tickli.ai. We will review and respond within 14 days. Our appeals process is binding — if we find the action was an error, we will reverse it.
