What you can share on FictionCore
Where FictionCore rules apply
18+ refers to the real participant’s age, not their character’s: an adult character does not allow a minor to use FictionCore. Its pages are SFW: no explicit sexual content or detailed gore, and some themes are prohibited altogether.
Plots
For example, two adult writers can publish a detective plot, an ordinary adventure or non-explicit adult romance. Non-graphic horror can be allowed too. Age labels do not permit explicit sex or detailed gore; every theme must also respect the content rules.
Find ads
You can look for partners to write about allowed themes. You cannot use a FictionCore ad to arrange explicit sexual scenes, detailed gore or other prohibited material, even if you plan to write it on another service.
Always prohibited on FictionCore
Abuse, exploitation, sexualization or endangerment of minors is prohibited. This includes fictional minors and characters who appear underage, regardless of their stated age. Suicide and self-harm as themes, threats against real people, hate speech and instructions for dangerous real-world acts are also prohibited.
After sharing a contact
FictionCore does not host your roleplay conversation. If you choose to play together, use an external service you both agree on. Its rules and the law apply, and you still need to respect each other’s consent and boundaries.
Everyone using FictionCore must be at least 18. SFW means no explicit sexual content or detailed depictions of gore; some themes are prohibited altogether. Dark subject matter alone is not necessarily prohibited. Assess the content and its presentation under the rules. Agreement between writers does not override those rules.
An ad that breaks the rules
An ad requests prohibited content and says it is fine because everyone is an adult and the writing will happen elsewhere.
An ad that follows the rules
An ad describes an allowed story idea and writing preferences. The writers choose whether to share contact details. If they go on to play elsewhere, they follow that service’s rules and respect each other’s boundaries.
Before you comment or publish
Try it yourself
A Find ad proposes a non-graphic war story and gives the author’s email address in the ad text. What needs attention?
Show explanation
- A non-graphic war story can fit the content rules, provided it does not include prohibited themes.
- A fictional setting does not permit explicit sexual scenes, graphic gore or otherwise prohibited content.
- Use the contact-sharing controls instead of putting contact details in public ads. Each person decides what to share; receiving a contact does not automatically reveal yours.
- Reporting and blocking are available even if you have not passed the Community Quiz.
