Make real plans. Be decent. Don’t make it weird.
I built #noSoloNet because people shouldn’t have to sit at home just because they don’t have somebody to go with. It only works if people can trust each other enough to make a plan and show up. I don’t want this to read like a giant corporate rulebook, so here’s the plain-English version: be honest, respect people, use some common sense, and don’t ruin it for everybody else.
Be honest about who you are and what you’re planning
Use real profile information and tell people what they’re actually signing up for. Put the real time, general location, cost, gear, skill level, physical demands, accessibility details, and anything else somebody should know before they show up. Don’t pretend to be somebody else, make up qualifications, hide that you’re selling something, or post a plan you know is misleading.
Keep it about doing something
#noSoloNet isn’t a dating app, a popularity contest, a sales list, or a place to spam strangers. Start with the activity. Maybe you make a new friend and maybe you only hang out that one time. Either one is fine.
Respect a no the first time
Nobody owes you a reply, an invitation, a date, a ride, physical contact, or an explanation. If somebody says no, leaves, blocks you, or asks you to stop contacting them, that’s the end of it. Harassing, threatening, stalking, pressuring, intimidating, exploiting, or trying to get back at somebody won’t be tolerated.
This is an adults-only community
Everybody on #noSoloNet has to be at least 18. Never use the site to contact or target a minor, and never groom, exploit, threaten, bully, pressure, traffic, or seek illegal sexual material from anybody. Keep age limits honest and relevant, especially for alcohol, venues, and other legally restricted activities.
Don’t post gross, hateful, threatening, or scammy stuff
No pornography, sexual solicitation, threats, bullying, hateful abuse, scams, spam, or nonstop self-promotion. The site has filters, but finding a way around one doesn’t make the post okay.
Don’t treat people like less because of who they are
Don’t attack, demean, exclude, or target people because of their identity or a protected characteristic. A host can set a real requirement like a legal age limit, skill level, safety gear, or venue capacity, but it needs to actually matter to the activity and apply to everybody the same way.
Use your head and don’t put people in danger
Follow the law, the venue rules, any permit requirements, and basic safety practices. If you’re hosting, be upfront about known hazards and don’t lie about your experience, certifications, insurance, supervision, or emergency support. Know your own limits and don’t push somebody past theirs.
Keep private stuff private
Don’t post a home address, private contact information, identifying documents, private messages, or somebody else’s location without permission. Ask before you photograph, record, tag, or publicly identify somebody. If they don’t want to be included, leave them out.
If you make a plan, communicate
If you say you’re going, make a real effort to show up. If you can’t, cancel early enough for people to adjust. Hosts need to tell everybody when the time, place, cost, capacity, or plan changes. Things happen; just don’t leave people hanging.
Keep reviews and reports real
Only review an activity you were actually part of, and stick to what you personally experienced. Don’t fake reviews, manipulate attendance, threaten somebody over a rating, or file a report just because you’re mad about a disagreement. Be honest and specific.
If something feels wrong, use the tools
Block somebody when you want contact to stop. Report behavior that may break these guidelines or the Terms, and save the relevant messages or activity details when it’s safe. If there’s an immediate threat or emergency, call local emergency services first. #noSoloNet can’t replace them.
What I’ll do when somebody crosses the line
I’m not looking to punish people over every awkward moment or ordinary disagreement. But if somebody is harassing people, lying, putting others at risk, or deliberately abusing the site, I’ll take it seriously. Depending on what happened, #noSoloNet may remove content, limit features, issue a warning, suspend or close an account, preserve relevant records, or take other reasonable action.
That’s the human version. These guidelines still work together with the Terms of Service and the safety tools built into #noSoloNet.
