Community Guidelines
Updated: 12/6/2025
1. Be Real
Cheers Buddy is for genuine people celebrating real progress. No fake profiles, impersonation, bots, or misleading identities.
2. Be Kind
Cheer to uplift, never to shame. Avoid harshness, sarcasm, or discouraging language. Kindness is the core of our community.
3. Be Respectful
Respect different backgrounds, abilities, and experiences. No harassment, discrimination, bullying, or hostile behaviour of any kind.
4. Celebrate Small Wins
Every step counts. Support tiny progresses the same way you support big achievements. No belittling or comparing.
5. Keep It Safe
We are a supportive space, not an emergency service. Avoid posting harmful, dangerous, or triggering content. Respond with empathy, not medical or legal advice.
6. Protect Privacy
Don’t share sensitive personal details (yours or others’). Do not pressure anyone into revealing information they’re not comfortable sharing.
7. No Harmful or Explicit Content
No hate speech, violence, harassment, explicit material, extremist content, or anything that threatens safety or wellbeing.
8. No Spam or Manipulation
No promotional spam, automated cheering, or attempts to manipulate visibility. Keep engagement authentic.
9. Use Categories Properly
Post wins in the correct categories so everyone finds relevant support. Specialists should interact only within appropriate areas.
10. Support, Don’t Diagnose
Encourage without giving professional, medical, or legal advice. No guilt-pressuring or overstepping boundaries.
11. Report Problems
Help keep the community safe by reporting harmful or rule-breaking content. Reporting protects everyone.
12. Consequences
Violations may lead to removal of content, temporary suspension, or permanent account restrictions to maintain a safe environment.
13. A Positive Space
Cheers Buddy exists to celebrate progress with real support. Protect the energy. Be part of the community that uplifts others.
