Guideline (0.b) Update

First, we will be addressing this update to the mentioned community guideline. Please consider the following:

(0.b) Face reveals are only allowed to be included when in cosplay, as your profile picture, a toonme, or a personal reaction sticker. Posts, wikis, and chats containing face reveals are not allowed to be posted freely. Extremely young s (minors below the age of 13), will not be privileged to use these accommodations and thus will have their profile photos, stickers, etc disabled if found.

This guideline needed to be updated as it has not been altered since the dawn of stickers and toonme. However, additionally staff felt a need to be more protective for our most important s, which are the minors of this community who depend on us to go the extra mile to keep them secure. This is why extremely young s will be exempt from such privileges and thus have their identity hidden, and most importantly, protected.

Report and Information Desk Sidebar

To make things easier for our s to report breaches of our guidelines and to reach out for information on things they need, we have added the Information Center Chat to the sidebar for easy access.

Thank you all for reading! We hope that you enjoy these new changes we have made to the community to help things run a little more smoothly. Leave comments below about your thoughts and and always , Believe in Steven :star2:

Yeah man I'm cool with it. But unless they got permission TA, that's still breaking the rules. This Amino isn't outside those rules because it's for a kids show.

Not gonna report it or anything, if the kids are safe I don't see the harm in it, just saying.

I like you. You seem chill :+1:

Yeah I agree. But at the same time I know how important letting a young person on the internet can be. (Keyword being CAN)

Blah blah blah backstory, I struggled with depression from ages 9 -14 and as a 12 year old i was really suicidal, and if I hadn't found a social media platform that allowed all ages i probably wouldn't be here today.

Of course the dangers of the internet are very real, and protecting kids from that is very important, but I also worry that by trying to protect children by keeping them away from these dangers will cut some children off from a vital resource. Y'know?

Oh yeah I totally understand that. But I'm just saying, just because this is an Amino for a kids show doesn't mean it's immune to Amino's age restrictions. That's all.

Ooooo! That’s so cool! I hope that it will make the community a bit better- (I mean- it’s not really bad or I’ve seen nothing bad so far since I’ve been here-)
