Content Moderation Policy

Effective: March 1, 2026

My Blog relies on community contributions. This policy explains how we review, approve, and—when necessary—remove user-submitted content.

1. What We Moderate

Bot/inauthentic-account reports (descriptions, evidence links, screenshots).
Campaign descriptions and linked accounts.
User-facing profile information (display names, bios).

2. Review Process

Automated checks. Upon submission, reports are validated against minimum-length thresholds, URL format rules, and rate limits. Invalid submissions are rejected immediately with an explanation.
Queue & triage. Valid reports enter the moderation queue and are visible only to moderators until approved. Reports from high-reputation reporters may be auto-approved when the administrator has enabled that option.
Manual review. A moderator verifies that the report contains sufficient evidence, does not target a private individual without justification, and complies with these rules. Average review time target: 48 hours.
Decision. The report is either approved (published & scored) or rejected (with a reason). Reporters receive an email notification of the outcome if email notifications are enabled.

3. Prohibited Content

The following content will be rejected and may result in account suspension:

Doxing. Personally identifiable information (home address, phone number, real name of a private individual) not already public.
Harassment & threats. Content whose primary purpose is to intimidate, bully, or threaten a person.
Knowingly false reports. Fabricated evidence or reports filed in bad faith to weaponize the scoring system.
Coordinated manipulation. Mass-filing identical or near-identical reports to inflate a score.
Illegal content. CSAM, incitement to violence, terrorist propaganda, or content that violates applicable law.
Spam & commercial solicitation. Unrelated advertising or promotional material.
Copyrighted material. Screenshots or text you do not have the right to distribute (fair-use excerpts excepted).

4. Enforcement Actions

Severity	Action
Low (first offence, minor violation)	Content removed; reporter notified with explanation.
Medium (repeat or deliberate violation)	Content removed; reporter reputation reduced; formal warning issued.
High (doxing, threats, illegal content)	Content removed; account suspended immediately; may be reported to authorities.

5. Appeals

If your report was rejected or your account was suspended, you may appeal by emailing admin@botidentifier.com within 30 days. Include:

Your username.
The report ID or content in question.
Why you believe the decision was incorrect.

Appeals are reviewed by a different moderator than the one who made the original decision. We aim to resolve appeals within 7 business days.

6. Reporter Reputation

Each reporter accrues a reputation score that influences the weight their future reports carry in the scoring algorithm. Submitting high-quality, accurate reports increases reputation; rejected or flagged reports decrease it. This creates a self-correcting incentive structure.

7. Transparency

We publish aggregate moderation statistics (reports received, approved, rejected) on the admin dashboard. We do not publicly disclose the identity of individual moderators.

8. Changes

We may update this policy at any time. Material changes will be noted with a revised effective date at the top of this page.
