Community Rules

Welcome to Holler Away! We are truly grateful you are keen to join our community of content creators and we are excited for what you have to share! Content creators like yourself are truly the driving force of this platform and we truly believe that communities become stronger when we communicate and share quality information with others. Like most content platforms, Holler Away also have our own community posting guidelines and rules that we believe would keep the content on our platforms respectful for our readers. Do be mindful that as an online platform, our readers may come from all walks of life and ages. We thus have a responsibility to ensure that no inappropriate content is posted on our platforms. Our moderators screen our platforms actively to take down such content, and if necessary, to suspend the errant user accounts. When necessary, we will reach out to our local authorities for advice and assistance. We also reserve the right to revise and update the community rules at any time without prior notice.

No illegal activity

First and foremost, no illegal activity whatsoever. Do not use this platform to conduct illegal business. We will not hesitate to refer such activity to our local authorities. In addition, our moderators will suspend the user account and block such content.

No fake news or deceptive information

Holler Away thrives when users share content that they know to be truthful. This is especially true since our platform provides location centric information to our readers. As much as possible, we encourage our content creators to post content based on actual observation, hence the “I came, I saw, I hollered” tagline of our company. Although we are not restrictive on the actual observation aspect, please do not post content that you know to be untrue or are unsure of the veracity of the information. We use reactive moderation by baking in rating tools for our community members to report and flag out fake information on our platforms. Our moderators actively scout such content and if necessary, we will block the content or suspend the errant user account.

No sexual related content

Do not post any content relating to hookups, prostitution or advertise escort services or seek sexual favors. Do not post any pornographic content or sexually suggestive photos. Our moderators actively scout such content and if necessary, we will block the content or suspend the errant user account.

No abusive and gory content

Do not post violent material or gory content on our platform. Do not post content that discriminates or condones violence against any person, or groups based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, age, nationality, sexual orientation or any aspects that is not listed here. Do not use vulgar or abusive language in your correspondence with other users, in your hollers, on your profile or anywhere on the site. Do not abuse or threaten other users. We will not hesitate to refer such matters to our local authorities if we deem the user is a threat to public safety. Our moderators actively scout such content and if necessary, we will block the content or suspend the errant user account.

No religious content

Do not post religious content of any kind. Our platform is secular in nature and we intend to keep it that way.

Do not impersonate

Do not create accounts or content that is intended to impersonate another person or entity or brand. We will not hesitate to suspend such accounts.

Do not spam

Avoid posting repetitive content as much as possible. Although it is hard to construe as what is considered spam, our moderators will use our judgement to decide whether a content is spammy or not, and if necessary, we will block the content or suspend the errant user account.

Do not share personal or confidential information

As an online platform, we care a lot about your privacy and security. We will not reveal any information about you apart from your public display name. You may choose to use a nickname as your public display name.
