Community rules

Happiness is a game about sharing stories and listening to each other. The forum works the same way.

Who can join

You must be 13 or older to make an account. Anyone can read the forum without one.

Be kind

• Disagree about strategy all you like. Don't attack the person.
• No harassment, hate speech, slurs, or threats.
• No sexual content of any kind. This is a family game.

Keep yourself and others safe

• Don't post phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses, school names, or anything else that tells people how to find you or someone else.
• Don't ask other members to move to private chat, other apps, or to send photos. If someone asks you, report it.
• Only post photos you took or have permission to share. Ask before sharing pictures of other people, and never share pictures of someone else's children.

Photos

Every photo is checked automatically before anyone can see it, and some are checked by a person too. Location and camera data are removed from every photo. A photo that breaks these rules is removed and the account loses upload access.

We report child sexual abuse material to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and cooperate with law enforcement. Accounts that post it are closed immediately.

No spam

No advertising, affiliate links, or repeated posts. New members' links are checked by a moderator before they appear.

How moderation works

Posts are checked automatically when you submit them. Some are held for a moderator before they appear; that isn't a punishment, it just means a person needs to look. Moderators can remove posts, lock threads, and suspend or close accounts that break these rules.

If you see something wrong, use Report on the post. Child-safety reports hide the post right away while a moderator reviews it.
