Be kind – no hate or bullying
We welcome open conversations and different viewpoints, but kindness must always come first. Treat others with the respect you would expect for yourself. Bullying, personal attacks, or any hateful or offensive comments—especially around race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or identity—are not allowed and will result in removal from the platform.
Privacy and respect
Online communities are a place where everyone must feel safe. Be thoughtful about what you say and how it might affect others. We don’t monitor private messages, so mutual respect is essential. Avoid spam, off-topic posts, or unwanted promotions—they disrupt the space for everyone.
Other social media platforms
While it's great to connect within Discord and beyond, protect your privacy. Don’t share personal details like your full name, phone number, usernames, or location with people you don’t know. The University of Brighton can moderate activity within this Discord server, but we can’t help if issues happen on other servers or platforms.
Look after yourself and others
If something makes you uncomfortable, use the report feature. We’ll review the situation and remove harmful content or users if needed. You can also block users directly to prevent unwanted contact. We aim to create a community where everyone feels supported, in line with the university’s #NeverOk pledge.
Sharing information about yourself
You can choose to add a photo and some personal info to your profile—but there’s no pressure. You’ll have full access to our Discord channels and threads whether you share or not. Only post messages or details you’re happy for others in the community to see.
Stick to the rules
By joining and using this platform, you agree to follow these community guidelines. Repeated or serious violations may result in your access being removed to keep the space safe for everyone.
Moderation
Our student ambassadors check channels and threads at least once every 24 hours. They may remove anything that’s inappropriate or offensive. If you see something concerning, please report it. For urgent or serious issues, we encourage you to seek support from these external services.
