Preggie Community Guidelines
Preggie is a private, mobile community for moms and moms-to-be to share experiences, ask for advice and post photos. We’ve developed guidelines to make sure our Preggie community is a welcoming and enjoyable place for all our members.
Respect the Preggie community
Preggie is a diverse community with diverse opinions. It is up to each of us to be polite and treat each other with respect. Remember that everyone here is going through the most extraordinary change in their life, a change that comes with joy and wonder but also pain and sometimes roller coaster emotions. Any members who break a rule may be subject to a complete ban from Preggie.
- Use kindness toward all our moms. Preggie encourages discussion and candid debate, but don’t abuse others. Differences are acceptable, but bullying, insults, personal attacks and threats are not allowed.
- No obscene, hostile, libelous or offensive language.
- Do not post inappropriate content. Users who post offensive or shocking content will be banned from the community.
- No shouting matches with other members. If you’re in a dispute, immediately inform the community managers rather than further engaging with the other member. Block the member by tapping Block, and then click Complain (click the three dots in the post header and tap Block or Complain) and contact with a copy of the alleged offender’s username.
Violations
We review all complaints thoroughly to determine whether or not they violate our community guidelines. Any violation may result in a complete ban, but we do allow for one slip of judgement. For the above violations we allow a member one warning before terminating an account.
Don’t cross the line
If members are found to have crossed the line, they will be immediately banned from our community.
- Do not impersonate another user or the female gender. Preggie is a women-only community.
- No identity theft.
- No repeated threats or bullying.
- No stealing of photos, and no publication or forwarding of posts and private messages to third parties without permission.
- No multiple accounts by one user.
- No illegal activity.
- No pornography.
- No unsolicited messaging or commercial spamming permitted.
Join in and enjoy yourself
Remember Preggie is our big family. Each and every member makes the community, so don’t be afraid to get involved. We’re all committed to making our Preggie community the most welcoming, useful and positive place for all expecting and new moms. However, our ultimate success is guaranteed only with your help and support. We take the privacy and social health issues of our Preggie community very seriously. We will monitor posts and complaints carefully, but breach of our community guidelines and Terms of Service may result in the termination of your account.
