A public wall works because people are kind to it.

This is a shared space for thoughts, encouragement, ideas, and small marks of being here. Write the kind of note you would be glad to find. Assume good faith in others, and remember a real person reads what you publish.

• Be respectful — disagree without demeaning people.
• No harassment — do not target, bully, or pile on.
• No hate speech — no attacks based on identity.
• No illegal content — keep it lawful.
• No spam — no repetitive, promotional, or junk notes.
• No impersonation — be yourself; do not pretend to be someone else.
• No malicious links — no malware, phishing, or scams.
• Respect intellectual property — share what is yours to share.
• Report abuse — help us keep the wall welcoming.

Some content harms the space for everyone and will be removed. This includes threats and targeted harassment, hateful content, sexual content involving minors, doxxing or sharing private information, incitement to violence, illegal material, and coordinated spam or manipulation. The full list lives in our Terms of Use.

If a note breaks these guidelines, report it. Email abuse@addyournote.com or use the contact form. Tell us where the note is and why it concerns you — a link or signature and a short description helps us act quickly.

We aim to be fair and proportionate. Depending on severity, we may hide or remove a note, warn an author, or suspend or terminate an account. Serious or illegal content may be actioned immediately and, where required, reported to the appropriate authorities. Our goal is always to keep the wall open and welcoming for everyone.
