Policy version 2026-08-26.1
Community Guidelines
These rules apply to events and community posts. Reports are decided from the reported subject itself; disagreement or a report by itself is not proof of a violation.
Christian event eligibility
An event marketed through oabba must have a substantive Christian purpose in its program. Denominational disagreement, unfamiliar worship style, or good-faith theological debate is not a violation.
Fraud, scams, and impersonation
Do not invent an event, organizer, church, venue, speaker, price, or affiliation, solicit payment deceptively, or impersonate another person or organization.
Hate and harassment
Do not attack people for protected characteristics, direct degrading abuse at a person, organize harassment, or publish credible threats.
Sexual and violent content
Pornographic, sexually exploitative, graphically violent, or violence-glorifying content is not allowed. Documentary or pastoral discussion may be allowed when it is non-graphic and contextualized.
Self-harm
Content encouraging, instructing, or graphically depicting self-harm is not allowed. A person seeking help or describing recovery is not a violation and should be escalated carefully rather than punished.
Spam and misleading claims
Do not post repetitive promotion, deceptive engagement bait, materially false event details, or claims presented as fact when the content itself shows they are fabricated.
Copyright
Do not use protected media or branding without permission. Ownership disputes normally require human review because a report alone does not establish who owns a work or license.
How reports are decided
Use only when the reported subject itself supplies clear evidence of a guideline violation. Hide or suspend only that subject and action all open reports about it.
Use when the subject is clearly permitted or the report is plainly unrelated. Restore only a takedown whose recorded source is reports.
Use for incomplete evidence, contextual ambiguity, copyright ownership, terminal events, credible imminent danger, or any case where outside facts decide the outcome.
