Keep it honest

Writing fiction can be fun and some people even make a living doing it, but Sutori all about keeping it real. Real stories. Real people. Real life.

Keep it constructive

Sure sometimes a good, old fashioned rant is just what the doctor ordered. And that’s fine with us. But if you don’t make it clear what made you want to start ranting in the first place—and what can be done about it—then all you’ve got left is hot air. Which is only a good thing if you are a balloonist.

Stay on topic

Sutori is all about the experiences you’ve had as a customer. So musings about the meaning of life are probably not appropriate—unless your view of the meaning of life involves products or services of some sort.

Enjoy yourself!

Enough said.

 

Don’t harass, abuse or impersonate others

If we receive a legitimate complaint about your conduct, we’ll send you a warning or just plain terminate your account.

Don’t post sexually explicit stories

If you do, we’ll terminate your account. No warnings, even. I mean, come on. It’s not like there aren’t plenty of other places on the Internet for this sort of thing.

Don’t post content that is illegal

If you do, we’ll terminate you account immediately. And we may report you to the relevant authorities as well. So seriously, don’t do it.

Don’t post copyright-protected material

Sutori wants your stories, not someone else’s. Keep the content original or we’ll remove it and send you a reminder of this guideline. And if you ignore our reminder, we’ll terminate your account.

Not professional advice:

We hope the stories posted on Sutori are interesting and enlightening, but content posted by Sutori users should probably not be considered a substitute for professional advice. So enjoy Sutori, but contact a trained professional when you need specialized advice in areas such as medicine, law, finance, accounting, tax or investment management, real estate, taxidermy or interstellar travel.

Some final words:

These guidelines are not meant to ruin anyone’s fun. Just the opposite, actually. If you don’t feel you can stick to these guidelines and abide by our Terms of Service, maybe Sutori isn’t for you.

And if you think we’ve missed something in putting these guidelines together, please let us know.
