Community guidelines
Draft — to be reviewed before launch.
branch outdoors works because people treat each other well. In short:
- Be kind. No harassment, threats, hate or personal attacks, in posts or at events.
- Be honest about events. Describe the distance, difficulty and risks accurately. Everyone takes part at their own risk, and organizers are volunteers.
- No selling. This is not a place to advertise guided trips, gear or services.
- Respect privacy. Don't share other people's contact details, addresses or photos without asking.
- Leave no trace. Follow land rules, permits and closures.
- Adults only. Accounts are for people 18 and over.
Moderation
Group organizers moderate their own groups. Anyone signed in can report a post, event, group or profile. The site admin reviews reports and can remove content, remove groups and suspend accounts. Every moderation action is logged.
