Discussions on Aniworks are for talking about anime and manga with other fans: episode reactions, theories, recommendations and everything in between. These rules apply everywhere Aniworks comments appear, including the browser extension and other sites that show Aniworks discussions. They're numbered, so a moderator can tell you which one a removed comment broke.
1. Be respectful
Disagree with opinions, not people. No insults, harassment, slurs or hate based on who someone is, and no attacking someone for liking or disliking a series. If a conversation is going nowhere, step away from it.
2. Mark spoilers
Anything that reveals what happens later than the current page covers goes behind a spoiler: select the text and use the spoiler button, or write >!like this!<. On an episode's page, that episode itself is fair game, but later episodes, the source material and other seasons are spoilers. When in doubt, mark it.
3. Stay on topic
Keep comments about the series, episode or profile they're posted on. Comparisons and recommendations are welcome; unrelated arguments, chain messages and off-topic posts aren't.
4. No spam or self-promotion
Don't post the same comment repeatedly, post ads, or flood a thread. Sharing your own work, channel or server is fine only when it's relevant and you've taken part in the discussion, not as a drive-by post.
5. Share links that help
News, official announcements and sources are welcome. Don't post download links, malware, phishing, or links to shocking or adult content. For where to watch or read a series, use its page's Watch or Read section rather than posting links in comments.
6. Keep it safe for work
No sexual content, gore or other graphic material, in text or links. Discussing a series' mature themes is fine; describing or linking explicit material isn't.
7. Respect privacy and the law
Don't share anyone's personal information, threaten anyone, or post anything illegal. Don't impersonate other people, staff or creators.
8. One account, and no getting around moderation
Don't use extra accounts to vote, argue with yourself or get around a removal or ban.
Reports and moderation
If a comment breaks these rules, use Report in its menu instead of replying to it. Moderators review reports and may remove comments, and for serious or repeated breaks, ban an account from commenting. You'll see the reason on your own removed comment.
If you think a moderator got it wrong, email [email protected] with a link to the comment. These rules may change as the community grows; the date above shows the latest version.
