Community guidelines

Asyncbit only works if people are willing to post honestly — including anonymously. That takes a floor everyone can rely on. These are the rules, and what happens when someone breaks them.

The short version

Post what you want. Disagree as strongly as you like. Do not target people, do not manipulate the points system, and do not post things that are illegal. If you would not be comfortable with the rule being applied to you, it is probably the right rule.

What isn't allowed

Harassment, bullying and threats
Targeting someone, pile-ons, threats and defamation. This is the rule we are least flexible about.
Illegal content and hate speech
Illegal material, hate speech, sexual content involving minors, and anything that infringes someone else's rights. Sexual content involving minors is reported to the relevant authorities, not just removed.
Spam and engagement manipulation
Spam, scams, and any attempt to artificially inflate engagement, points or leaderboard position. Gaming the reputation system devalues it for everyone who earned theirs.
Impersonation
Passing yourself off as another person or organization. Anonymous is fine — pretending to be someone specific is not.
Recording people without consent
Misusing calls or messaging to record or monitor others without their knowledge.
Attacking the platform
Probing, overloading or breaching our systems, or trying to access anyone else's account.

Anonymous posts follow the same rules

Confessions, polls and Q&A questions can be posted anonymously, and that is deliberate — some things only get said when a name is not attached to them. Everything else, comments included, carries your name.

What anonymity does not do is remove accountability. Reporting, banned-word filtering, automated moderation and the human moderation team all apply to anonymous content exactly as they apply to signed content, and Asyncbit keeps the internal records it needs to enforce these rules. An anonymous post cannot be edited or deleted by its author afterwards, so think before you post one. Anonymity is a shield for honesty, not for harassment.

Tools you have

Report

Report posts, comments and people — anonymous posts included — for spam, harassment, hate speech, violence, nudity, misinformation, self-harm, impersonation or another reason. On Android you can also report messages, stories and reels. Reports go to the moderation team.

Block

Blocking hides content in both directions, removes follows between you and stops messages. You do not need a reason. If you would rather just stop seeing someone, mute them instead.

Automated filtering

Filters for banned words and rate-based auto-moderation catch the obvious problems. A human moderation team handles reports and everything the filters can't judge.

Warnings and strikes

Enforcement is usually graduated — a warning, then strikes — rather than a single instant ban. Serious violations skip straight to removal. If you think a decision was wrong, contact support.

What happens when rules are broken

Depending on severity and history: content removal, a warning, a strike on the account, a temporary ban, or a permanent ban. Repeated or serious violations move faster through that sequence. If you believe a decision was a mistake, email support and explain what happened. Full detail sits in the Terms of Service, and what we do with your data is set out in the Privacy Policy.

Something urgent?

Report it in the product first so it reaches the moderation team. For anything involving immediate risk to someone's safety, contact your local emergency services, then reach us at support@asyncbit.in. General questions belong in the help centre.
