General Guidelines
People come to ByMyHonor to connect and exchange Honor Notes. We know that people won't always agree, but we expect everyone on the site to treat one another and the platform with honesty and respect. We've put together these general guidelines to help set the tone for discourse on the site—just in case. Please also read the additional guidelines below for specific types of content that you might contribute to the site.
- Relevance: Please make sure your contributions are appropriate to the forum. For example, Honor Notes aren't the place for rants about political ideologies, a business's employment practices, extraordinary circumstances, or other matters that don't address the core of the consumer experience.
- Inappropriate content: Colorful language and imagery are fine, but there's no place for threats, harassment, lewdness, hate speech, or other displays of bigotry.
- Conflicts of interest: Your contributions to ByMyHonor should be objective. For example, you shouldn't write Honor Notes for your own benefit, your friends' or relatives' benefit, unless it is a true and measurable transaction.
- Privacy: Don't publicize people's private information. For instance, please don't post close-up photos or videos of other patrons without their permission, and don't post other people's full names unless you're referring to someone who is commonly referred to by their full name.
- Promotional content: Don't post promotional material unless it's in connection with a ByMyHonor advertising product. Let's keep the site useful for consumers and not overrun with commercial noise from every user.
- Post your own content: Don't swipe content from other sites, users, or businesses. Write your own copy and only share your own photos and videos. This also means you shouldn't use chatbots or other AI tools to create Honor Notes, including using such tools to draft or revise.
