Community Guidelines
How to behave in the Aiora Labs Community, what to disclose about how your work was made, and what happens when someone ignores both.
Updated July 2026
The Community is a place to learn and share. Keep it generous and honest. These guidelines are short because the standard is not complicated (treat other creators as people whose time and work matter), but they are enforced, and the Acceptable Use Policy applies here in full alongside them.
What the Community is
The Community is the social layer around the tools: a feed where creators show what they made, groups organised around a craft, direct messages between creators, and challenges to enter. It is a working space for people learning a craft in public, not a promotion channel and not a general-purpose social network.
All of it comes with membership, and all of it is covered by these guidelines: a group post, a direct message and a challenge entry are each held to the same standard as a post on the feed. Nothing in these guidelines describes a space that does not exist. Where a feature is not open, the rule simply waits for it.
Be respectful
No harassment, hate, or targeted abuse. Disagree with the work, not the person. Pile-ons, brigading and following someone across the platform to keep arguing are all the same behaviour wearing different clothes, and all of them are treated as harassment.
Do not post someone else’s private information, and do not post identifying details about a person who has not chosen to be here. That includes screenshots of private conversations.
Be honest about how it was made
Credit collaborators, and do not present someone else’s work as your own. If you built on another creator’s prompt, template, preset or asset, say so. Attribution costs you nothing and it is most of what makes a community worth belonging to.
Be straight about the process too. Do not claim a result was made in one pass when it took twenty, do not pass off a heavily retouched output as a raw generation, and do not imply a tool did something it did not do. Overstating a method misleads the people trying to learn from you, which is the one thing this space is for.
Keep it safe
No unsafe, unlawful or exploitative content. The prohibitions in the Acceptable Use Policy (content sexualising minors, content facilitating serious harm, hateful content targeting people for who they are) apply here without exception and without an artistic-framing defence.
Label mature work so people can choose whether to see it. Getting that wrong deliberately, to catch people out, is itself a violation.
Likeness and real people
Personas and generated media depicting a real, identifiable person need that person’s consent or another lawful basis. This is the rule most likely to be broken by accident here, because a persona that resembles someone is easy to produce and hard to un-publish.
Satire and commentary have latitude. Anything a reasonable person could mistake for real footage of a real person does not.
Feedback and critique
Critique is welcome and is how people improve. Say what is not working and why; that is useful. Contempt is not critique, and neither is a one-word verdict on something somebody spent a week on.
If you post work, expect responses. If you want a specific kind of feedback, ask for it. Most people will give you exactly what you asked for.
Promotion
Showing your own work is the point, so self-promotion is not against the rules. Using the Community purely as a distribution list is: no unsolicited bulk posting, no engagement-farming, no reply-spam pointing at somewhere else, and no undisclosed paid promotion of a third party.
Referral links follow the Referral Terms. Referrals have to be genuine, and incentivised sign-ups that do not reflect real interest are not eligible however they were shared.
Reporting something
Report content or behaviour through support and tell us what you saw and where. Reports are read by a person, not triaged automatically, and we would rather see a report that turns out to be nothing than miss one that was not.
Do not handle it yourself in public. Reporting and then leaving it with us produces a better outcome than a thread about it.
Moderation and enforcement
Reports are reviewed by a person. Depending on what happened and whether it has happened before, the outcome may be a note, content removal, a restricted feature, a temporary suspension or a closed account. Severity and repetition both count, and we would rather correct than punish.
Where it is reasonable to explain a decision, we will. Where explaining it would expose the person who reported it, we will not.
If we get it wrong
If you think a decision was wrong, tell us and a person will look at it again. Where that is possible, it will be a different person. Bring anything that adds context; “it was a misunderstanding” is easier to act on with the detail attached.
Your work, your credits and your account are not held hostage to a moderation dispute. Losing access to a member-only space does not delete what you made.
