Community Guidelines
Last updated: May 9, 2026
The Solus community is a place to share what God is doing — verses that landed, prayers that were answered, peace found in hard seasons. It only works if it stays kind, honest, and safe. These rules are short on purpose.
What's welcome
- Sharing a verse, reflection, or testimony that's meaningful to you.
- Encouraging others — an "amen," a kind word, a quiet prayer.
- Honest expressions of struggle and hope. Doubt is welcome here.
- Respectful conversation across denominations and traditions.
What isn't tolerated
We have zero tolerance for any of the following. Posts will be removed and accounts may be suspended or permanently banned without warning.
- Hate speech — content that demeans or attacks people based on race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religion, age, disability, or other protected characteristics.
- Harassment or bullying — targeted abuse, threats, intimidation, or repeated unwanted contact.
- Sexual or sexually suggestive content of any kind.
- Violence, gore, or shock content.
- Self-harm or suicide content presented in a way that could encourage or instruct others. If you are struggling, please reach out — see resources below.
- Spam, scams, or solicitation — including chain messages, fake testimonies, MLM pitches, and links to malware.
- Impersonation — pretending to be someone else, a pastor, a public figure, or another Solus user.
- Illegal activity — content promoting illegal drugs, weapons sales, human trafficking, or other crimes.
- Misinformation presented to deceive — particularly around medical, mental health, or safety topics.
- Doxxing or sharing private information — phone numbers, addresses, or any personal information about another person without their consent.
- Misuse of scripture to harm others — using verses as weapons, twisting context to attack a group, or claiming exclusive divine authority.
How we enforce
Reports are reviewed by Solus staff. Depending on severity:
- Minor first violation — content removed, warning sent.
- Repeat or moderate violation — temporary suspension (7–30 days) and content removal.
- Severe violation (hate speech, threats, sexual content involving minors, doxxing, illegal activity) — permanent ban, immediate content removal, and where required, escalation to law enforcement.
We do not negotiate enforcement. Decisions are final, but you may appeal once by emailing [email protected] within 14 days.

Age requirement
You must be at least 13 years old to post or interact in the Solus community. If you are under 13, please use Solus only for personal devotionals — not the community feed.
Account safety
Don't share your account. Don't ask others for theirs. If you believe your account has been compromised, change your password and email [email protected].
Final word
Solus is a small space. We ask that you treat everyone here as you would someone sitting next to you in a church pew — with grace, patience, and the assumption that they are loved by the same God who loves you.
