20SB Code of Conduct
Please read the important guidelines below. If you notice anything
in violation of the guidelines, please
report the issue. Here at 20SB, as
with any website where people come together, it is important to
adhere to certain rules of etiquette. Most can be covered by
remaining respectful of your fellow members, but we have listed
some specific guidelines below.
Network Behavior.
20SB is a place for you to meet other bloggers and build a
community of friends and resources. We encourage you to participate
in the Forums, our Chat room, and throughout the network. We
request that you do so in the spirit of a positive, supportive
community. We strongly discourage spammy behavior, which is broadly
defined as soliciting, marketing, recruiting, mass messaging, and
chat hogging.
Absolutely No Solicitation.
Under no circumstances should you contact another member asking for
money. If you have a cause or organization you'd like people to
donate to or be a part of, you can post a Discussion in the Forum,
or you can make post on your Personal Blog. You may not use the
messaging system to solicit money, memberships, or cause donations.
If we get complaints from other members that you have done so, your
account will be removed.
**If you need to make a complaint that a member has solicited you
for a loan or money for personal use, please contact our
Community Team.
20SB is Safe For Work.
We are adamant that your Profile Photo be safe for work. Users need
to be sure they can join us without risking a website image that
someone might not approve of. As for text, video, and other images
added or uploaded you must adhere to an R-rated standard. Our
network consists of twenty-somethings, and thus includes strictly
adults, but the addition or uploading of pornographic or otherwise
inappropriate content will not be tolerated. The Administrators and
our Community Team reserve the right of judgment. Content that is
NOT APPROPRIATE on 20SB includes, but is not limited to,
advertising, material copyrighted by someone who isn't you, and any
content that is vulgar or obscene. Abusive language, name-calling,
insults, harassment, and personal attacks will not be tolerated.
Further, members are prohibited from making posts or comments that
encourage this type of behavior. 20SB reserves the right to take
appropriate measures, including deleting content, blocking any
member from posting to our site and/or revoking the membership for
any behavior we determine to be damaging to our community.
Age Limit.
We’re thrilled to see so many people taking an interest in 20
Something Bloggers. We have made our membership guidelines very
clear; all members must be in their twenties when they join the
network. We reserve the right to remove and ban any member we find
to be under the age of 20 or older than 29.
Guard Your Personal Information.
20SB is a Public Network. Non-members have access to reading posts
and profiles on our site. Any person who qualifies is eligible to
join this network. We highly discourage members from posting
personal information such as telephone number, home address, or
other specific information which may make your location easily
discovered by others. If you’d like to share such information with
other members, we advise you to do so with great forethought and
caution, and only via the private messaging system. Be aware that
20SB cannot be held liable or responsible for any damages incurred
as a result of sharing said information.
Please Refrain from Advertising.
It is not appropriate to advertise your business, products or
services on the 20SB public forum, public image gallery or in
comments you leave on other member’s profiles or blog posts. It is
acceptable to mention your business on your own profile page or
blog posts, but not elsewhere on the website. Our network
administrators will delete any content that is construed as
advertising. We take this very serious, as the foundation of this
network included a promise to preserve its integrity. If you become
aware of any content that may violate these guidelines, or other
worrisome issues, please promptly
REPORT THE ISSUE and our community
administrators will look into it as quickly as possible.
