  • Scripted performances: Insults made in the context of an artistic medium such as scripted satire, stand up comedy, or music (e.g. a diss track). Note: This is not a free pass to harass someone and claim “I was joking.”
  • Harassment education or awareness: Content that features actual or simulated harassment for documentary purposes or with willing participants (e.g. actors) to combat cyberbullying or raise awareness.
  • Note: We will adopt stricter rules for content that maliciously insult someone based on the status of the protected group of the content, regardless of whether they are high-profile people.


Other penalities

Examples

Here are some examples of content that’s not allowed on Mockering:

  • Repeatedly showing pictures of someone and then making statements like “Look at this creature’s teeth, they’re so disgusting!”, with similar commentary targeting intrinsic attributes throughout the video.
  • Targeting an individual based on their membership in a protected group, such as by saying: “Look at this filthy [slur targeting a protected group], I wish they’d just get hit by a truck.”

  • Depicting an identifiable individual being murdered, seriously injured, or engaged in a graphic sexual act without their consent.
  • Accounts dedicated entirely to focusing on maliciously insulting an identifiable individual.
  • Position someone as their desire for death or serious injury based on their intrinsic attributes, such as "I hope someone can hit (a member of a protected group) in the face with a hammer."
  • Threaten someone's personal safety. This includes implicit threats, such as "The next time I see you, things will be bad for you.", explicit threats, such as "When I see you on Saturday, I will punch in the face", or by saying something like that Implying “best beware” when wielding weapons violently.
  • Publish personal non-public personally identifiable information, such as phone number, home address or email, to divert attention to their attention or traffic. For example: "I have their phone numbers, keep making calls and leave messages until they answer!"
  • Use in-game voice chats or messages in the stream to "raid" or direct malicious abuse to identifiable individuals.
