Community Guidelines

These Community Guidelines help us protect the space we're building. If you choose to engage with the community — whether through reviews, ratings, lists, comments, or other interactions — please follow these principles.

Respect Each Other

• Be kind, courteous, and constructive — especially when opinions differ.
• Everyone has different tastes and gaming backgrounds. Respect diversity in genre preferences, play styles, and life experiences.
• Do not harass, bully, shame, threaten, or target others.
• Avoid name-calling, slurs, or offensive jokes at someone's expense.

No Hate, No Intolerance

• Hate speech, bigotry, or discrimination of any kind has no place here — including content that targets race, gender identity, sexuality, disability, age, religion, nationality, or other protected identities.
• Do not promote or engage in extremist ideologies or violence.

Stay Safe

• Do not post or solicit personal information — yours or anyone else's.
• Do not impersonate other members or Search to Play staff.
• If you feel unsafe or experience abuse, report it to us — we'll take it seriously.

Keep It Honest and Original

• Share your honest opinions and insights — your words matter.
• Don't plagiarize. Write your own reviews. If quoting others, attribute clearly.
• Don't post false or misleading information, spam, or promotional content unrelated to gaming.
• If you're affiliated with a game, publisher, or service, please disclose it transparently.

Spoilers

• Respect the player journey. If your review contains significant story spoilers, please use the spoiler toggle.
• Don't include untagged spoilers in list titles, descriptions, or comments.
• Everyone plays at their own pace — let's not ruin that for others.

Moderation and Enforcement

• We reserve the right to remove content that is abusive, misleading, hateful, off-topic, or in violation of these guidelines.
• We may remove or restrict accounts based on repeated violations, or in severe cases, for off-platform behavior that threatens the safety of the community.
• These guidelines are a living document — we update them as needed to reflect evolving norms, language, and platform behavior.

In Short?

Be curious. Be honest. Be kind.
