Community guidelines.

Write in your own voice

Publish material you created or have permission to share. Credit sources, separate opinion from established facts and correct significant errors.

Keep the conversation constructive

No harassment, threats, hate, impersonation, spam or disclosure of another person’s private information. Authors choose whether comments are open and may remove comments from their posts.

Understand what is public

Your display name, handle, biography, website, avatar, published posts and comments are public. Your sign-in email is private. Uploaded media URLs are public even while a post is still a draft. Never upload confidential or embargoed material.

Independent of the newsroom

The Feed is author-published community content, separate from factioz editorial reporting. The newsroom can hide posts or comments and suspend author accounts. Suspension prevents further account activity; existing publications may remain visible unless separately hidden.

Ask for help

Use the contact page to report a concern or request help with your account. This launch version does not send verification or password-reset emails; contact the newsroom for account recovery.
