Jagged Verse is a creative literary ecosystem built on honesty, respect, and authentic connection. These guidelines apply to every reader, writer, and commenter on the platform. By participating you agree to uphold them.

1. Be Respectful

  • Engage with other members in good faith. Critique ideas, not people.
  • No harassment, hate speech, threats, or targeted abuse of any individual or group.
  • No discrimination based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or background.

2. Keep It Authentic

  • Publish your own original work. Plagiarism and impersonation are prohibited (see our Copyright & Plagiarism Policy).
  • No spam, deceptive clickbait, or artificially inflated engagement (see fair-engagement rules below).
  • Disclose paid promotion or sponsored content where relevant.

3. Content Standards

  • No unlawful content, sexually explicit material involving minors, or content that promotes violence or self-harm.
  • Sensitive subjects (abuse, mental health, faith) are welcome when handled with care and respect for readers.
  • Mark mature themes appropriately so readers can make informed choices.

4. Fair Engagement

Because writer payouts are tied to genuine reader engagement, the following are prohibited and will be excluded from earnings and may result in account action:

  • Bot traffic, click farms, fake accounts, and self-generated reads.
  • Rapid-refresh reading, VPN farming, or other attempts to manipulate read-time and engagement metrics.

5. Comments & Replies

Writers are encouraged to respond to readers. Keep replies constructive. Comments that violate these guidelines may be removed, and repeat offenders may lose commenting privileges.

6. Reporting & Enforcement

Violations may result in content removal, loss of writer/monetization privileges, or account suspension. To report a concern, email [email protected].
