Personal attacks of any kind will not be tolerated.
We expect all members to respect one another.
You may not ask for any
personal information from another member. If they wish to share
their personal or contact information, they can choose to display these
things on their profile in both TSS Members Profiles and TSS Forums.
Remember, we are all here to support one another and not to judge.
Registering a Chat room nickname is recommended, but not required.
Nicknames may not be offensive, triggering, obscene, or in any way disruptive of the supportive environment we wish to uphold.
You may only have one user name on any and all areas of The Solid Spirit. This includes Forums, Profiles, and Chat.
Alters in a DID/MPD system may register separate accounts- one account is allowed for each alter or personality.
Do not p2p
(person to person/ private message/ individual chat) another member in
a chat room without their permission first. Moderators are permitted to
contact any user via person-to-person or private chat at any time.
Talk
about suicide is not permitted. If you are in need of crisis
support, please call your local emergency number or find a crisis or hotline number on our Teen Resources page.
If you are in immediate danger, call your local emergency number or hotline immediately. We want you to be safe!
Under
no circumstances will our site be used for research, queries, surveys,
reports, homework projects, or any other harvesting of
information. Our site is a community of support, not a study.
Please "spoil"
triggering words. We have filters in our forums that will block
triggering words, but in chat please be sure to spoil any words that
may trigger other people.
This is a "spoiler": ab*s*, s*x, b**t.
Pornography will not be tolerated anywhere and will result in an immediate one month ban, and possible permanent ban.
There
are no professional counselors, therapists, psychiatrists or doctors on
our site. The site staff is composed of volunteers and persons
with technical skills to operate a website.
Members of The Solid Spirit are not allowed to practice medicine, therapeutic, or any other professional skills whether or not they are a professional doctor, therapist, counselor, social worker, or trained specialist anywhere on this site!
This is to keep the safety of EVERYONE so that nobody is harmed, tricked, or otherwise "ill advised".
We
may be required to turn over posts, transcripts, history and other
identifiable information in cases of legal or moral obligation.
