Community Guidelines

Kaisuki is a home for communities — servers full of channels, DMs, voice and stage rooms, forums, and posts, all run by the people who care about them. Some of those servers are 12 friends playing games at 2am. Some are tens of thousands of strangers who found each other over one very specific interest. Both deserve the same thing: a place where you can show up as yourself and not brace for the worst.

These Guidelines are the floor, not the ceiling. They apply everywhere on Kaisuki — every server, channel, DM, voice room, and profile — no matter how private the space feels. Individual servers can and should add their own rules on top; when you join one, you agree to live by both.

We wrote this to be read, not filed away. If a rule here ever feels ambiguous, assume it's asking you to be decent, and you'll usually land in the right place.

Most of what makes a community good isn't in a rulebook — it's the hundred small choices people make to be generous instead of sharp. We can't mandate warmth, but we can ask for the basics:

• Argue the point, not the person. Disagreement is healthy; contempt isn't.
• Assume good faith before you assume the worst. Text hides tone, and most people aren't out to get you.
• Respect the room. A meme channel and a support channel want different energy — read where you are before you post.
• Tag your spoilers. Not everyone's on the same episode, page, or patch.
• When you're wrong, own it and move on. It costs nothing and buys a lot.
• Follow the server's own rules. Mods and admins set the tone for their space, and 'I didn't like your rule' is not an exemption from it.

None of this means everyone has to agree, or that Kaisuki should feel sanded down and identical. Strong opinions and weird niche corners are the whole point. Just don't confuse 'edgy' with 'cruel to a specific person.'

A short list of things that get you removed, fast, with no interest in your side of the story. These aren't 'strikes' — they're exits.

• Harassment: targeting someone with unwanted contact, pile-ons, intimidation, or coordinated campaigns to make a person's life worse.
• Hate: attacking or dehumanizing people over race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, disease, age, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, or immigration status.
• Threats & violence: threatening, glorifying, or organizing real-world harm against anyone — including yourself-directed threats aimed at others.
• Doxxing: sharing someone's private information — home address, workplace, phone, real name, documents — without their consent, or threatening to.
• Impersonation & evasion: pretending to be another member, a public figure, or Kaisuki staff to deceive people; or using alt accounts to dodge a mute, timeout, or ban.

Kaisuki runs on real conversation. Anything engineered to extract money, clicks, or attention at other members' expense doesn't belong here.

• Mass DMs, invite spam, repeated copy-paste posts, and bot floods across servers.
• Phishing links, fake login pages, and anything built to steal accounts, tokens, or payment details.
• Scams of every flavor: crypto 'giveaways,' Kikkō doubling, 'free Spark Pro,' pyramid schemes, and impersonated support asking for your password.
• Selling or buying Kaisuki accounts, cracked cosmetics, or artificial Kikkō, Awakenings, and engagement.
• Malware, grabbers, exploits, or code shared to damage systems or hijack accounts.

Kaisuki isn't prudish. Adult communities are welcome — but adult content stays in adult spaces, behind the right gates, seen only by adults who opted in.

1. 1Confine it to channels flagged as age-restricted. NSFW media in a general channel, a DM to someone who didn't ask, a profile avatar, or a server banner is a violation regardless of the server's theme.
2. 2Age-gate the space. Age-restricted channels are visible only to members confirmed as 18+, and everyone posting or viewing must actually be an adult.
3. 3Keep it legal and consensual. No content involving minors (real, drawn, or 'aged-up'), no non-consensual or 'revenge' material, no sexual content of real people shared without consent.
4. 4Never mix NSFW with minor-accessible spaces. If a server is aimed at or heavily used by teens, adult content isn't allowed anywhere in it.

Server owners are responsible for setting these gates up correctly. If your community can't or won't keep adult content properly walled off, we'll wall it off for you.

If you're going through something dark, you're not a rule violation — you're a person we'd like to see get help. We don't punish people for reaching out or talking honestly about mental health, self-harm, or suicidal feelings.

What we do act on is content that encourages, instructs, glorifies, or pressures anyone toward self-harm — including 'pro-self-harm' communities and coordinated content designed to spread it. That gets removed.

Kaisuki hosts what you create and share — messages, images, files, avatars, banners, posts. You keep ownership of your work; you're also on the hook for having the right to post it.

• Don't upload art, music, video, code, or writing you don't own or have permission to share.
• Don't traffic in piracy, cracked software, leaked datasets, or stolen credentials.
• Credit creators when you share their work, and honor takedown requests from people whose work was posted without consent.
• Respect the 50% creator split by supporting servers through legitimate boosts, Spark, Spark Pro, Kikkō, and the cosmetics shop — not workarounds that shortchange the people building these communities.

Owners and moderators are the first line of trust and safety on Kaisuki. The tone of your community is mostly yours to set — and mostly yours to defend.

• Post clear server rules and make sure new members can find them.
• Actually moderate: respond to reports, and use AutoMod, channel permissions, and age-restriction flags to stop problems before they spread.
• Enforce these Guidelines inside your walls — a server that knowingly hosts violations is itself a violation.
• Escalate serious harm (threats, doxxing, child safety) to us immediately instead of handling it quietly.
• Don't weaponize your role: no using mod powers to harass, extort, or shield banned users.

For most violations we scale the response to the severity and the pattern. The goal is to correct behavior, not to collect scalps — but repeat offenders and serious harm skip the gentle end of the ladder entirely.

1. 1Warning — for minor, first-time, or clearly-a-mistake violations. A nudge and a clear explanation of what crossed the line.
2. 2Timeout / temporary mute — for repeated minor issues or a single sharper one. You keep your account but lose the ability to post or join in for a set period.
3. 3Suspension — for serious violations or a pattern that isn't stopping. Access is frozen while we review.
4. 4Permanent ban — for severe harm, or for anyone who keeps coming back. Includes the zero-tolerance categories above, where we skip straight here.

We weigh context — intent, history, whether real people were harmed — and we may remove content, revoke Spark or Awakening perks, or restrict features short of a full ban when that fits better. Our Safety team makes the final call.

We're not perfect, and we'd rather fix an honest mistake than defend it. If you believe an action against your account or content was wrong, you can appeal — with two exceptions: child-safety removals and confirmed CSAM cases are never reversed.

1. 1Log in and open a request at /ticket/requests.
2. 2Tell us what was actioned and why you think it was a mistake — include server names, message links, or screenshots if you have them.
3. 3Give us a little time. A different reviewer looks at the case, and we'll write back with the outcome and the reasoning.
