Community guidelines & content policy
As of 25 September 2026 · Part of the terms of use.
Prohibited content and behaviour
1. Hate, incitement and far-right content — zero tolerance
Not allowed:
- Far-right, fascist and National Socialist propaganda, symbols and slogans, or trivialising and relativising them;
- racism, antisemitism, queerphobia and transphobia, sexism, ableism and any other incitement against protected groups;
- incitement to hatred, Holocaust denial and the use of symbols of unconstitutional organisations (§§ 130, 86a of the German Criminal Code).
There is zero tolerance here. Such content regularly leads to an immediate, permanent ban.
2. Harassment, bullying, doxxing and threats
- Targeted harassment, bullying or hate campaigns against individuals or groups;
- doxxing — publishing private information (real name, address, workplace, photos) without consent;
- threats, intimidation, stalking, and encouraging self-harm or suicide.
3. Illegal and dangerous content
- Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) — prohibited without exception. Such content is removed and reported to the competent authorities (reporting obligation). The accounts involved are banned immediately and permanently.
- Glorification of violence, gore without context, terrorist propaganda, and spreading instructions for serious crimes;
- trading in weapons, drugs or other illegal goods;
- any other content that is criminal or illegal under German law.
4. Spam, scams and abuse of the platform
- Spam, unsolicited mass messages and advertising;
- scams, fraud, phishing and spreading malware;
- self-bots and unagreed automation that disrupts the service.
NSFW / adult content
Legal content that is not suitable for minors (e.g. nudity, sexual innuendo) is allowed only in channels explicitly marked as age-restricted (NSFW). Such channels are reserved for adults aged 18 and over; entering one confirms that you are at least 18. Outside such channels, keep content suitable for minors.
Regardless of that, the following stay prohibited: all illegal content, child sexual abuse material (CSAM), depictions of violence and gore, and non-consensual or secretly recorded content. Hard pornography, which under the German Interstate Treaty on the Protection of Minors in the Media (JMStV) requires a closed user group with age verification, is not permitted, because purrr does not currently operate a certified age verification system.
AI on purrr
You may come across content on purrr that was generated by AI. That is explicitly allowed, but it has to be recognisable. Since 2 August 2026 the transparency obligations of the EU AI Act (Article 50) apply to this.
- Accounts run by an AI are marked as bots. That applies to purrr system as much as to every other bot. Whoever writes with an account marked this way is not writing with a human.
- Machine translations are labelled as such. Translation only happens at the press of a button, never automatically, and the original text is always one click away.
- If you post AI-generated content yourself, label it. This applies especially to images, audio and video meant to look real, and to texts presented as your own experience or opinion.
- AI excuses nothing. All the rules above apply unchanged, whether a person or a model produced the content. Having an AI write hate speech is posting hate speech.
Not allowed in particular: deepfakes of real people without their consent, and AI-generated content passed off as a real recording.
Reporting and moderation
If you come across a violation, report it through the report function in the app or by email to info@meisgaming.net. Reports go to the admins and moderators, who review the case.
We try to handle reports promptly. Abusive reports, or reports made to harass someone, may themselves count as a violation.
Automatically covered messages
purrr initially hides from others any message that an automated pre-check rates as potentially offensive. It is not deleted: anyone can look at it themselves with one click on “Show message”.
Two things cause a message to be covered:
- Instance-wide, in every den: a term from the list of unambiguously degrading expressions. Ambiguous terms, or terms reclaimed by the people they target, only cover a message once the same person uses them three times within two minutes; a single use has no effect.
- Within a den: the den’s own AutoMod rules that its moderators set up with the “cover” action, such as a word filter.
Covering is not a penalty. Every automatic cover goes to the moderators as a report, and they review it by hand: a message covered wrongly is released again, a real violation is handled under the rules in “Consequences”. If you think your message was covered wrongly, contact the den’s moderators or write to info@meisgaming.net; the same appeal as below applies.
Consequences
Depending on how serious a violation is and whether it repeats, these apply:
| Measure | When |
|---|---|
| Removing the content | for posts that break the rules |
| Warning | for minor or first-time violations |
| Timeout (temporary suspension) | for repeated or moderately serious violations |
| Permanent ban | for serious violations or repetition |
For especially serious violations (e.g. CSAM, serious threats, far-right incitement) the ban is immediate and without warning, where appropriate together with a report to the authorities. We inform affected users about moderation decisions as far as possible. You can appeal a moderation decision within six months by an informal email to info@meisgaming.net; we will then review the case again. As a micro enterprise, the operator is exempt from the DSA’s further procedural obligations (including Art. 20) under Art. 19 DSA.
