Rule #7: Maintain Account Authenticity
Be genuine and honest in your interactions. Authentic connections make VoiceBond a better place for everyone.
Account Guidelines:
- One account per person - no fake or duplicate accounts
- Don't impersonate others or create misleading profiles
- Use your account responsibly and don't share access
- Represent yourself honestly without deception
Reporting Violations & Enforcement
Help us maintain a positive community by reporting rule violations. We take all reports seriously and investigate promptly.
How to Report:
- Use the in-app reporting feature
- Contact support@voicebond.app
- Provide specific details and context
- Include usernames and room information
Enforcement Actions:
- Warning: Minor violations
- Room Restriction: Temporary removal from a specific room
- Temporary Suspension: Talker privileges paused platform-wide
- Extended Suspension: A longer pause for repeated violations
Actions escalate with repeated violations. We don't publish the specific thresholds or durations, since doing so would let bad actors push right up to the limit.
Appeal Process:
If you believe you were unfairly sanctioned, you can appeal it from your account within 7 days. Tell us what happened in your own words. A moderator reads every appeal and you will be notified of the outcome. If we agree the action was wrong, the restriction is lifted and it no longer counts against you.
One appeal per restriction. Restrictions also lift on their own when they expire, so you do not need to appeal simply to have one end.
