Beacon Of Light is similar to other sites of a social/niche and micro-blogging nature.
You are able to comment/share, add videos, images and hash/tag others and share images, and gifs.
You must not use a real life image of your person, please use an avatar such as a user image and or an AI Art Created image. The avatar must be safe for work, and not be vulgar or naughty/bawdy looking.
Video embeds are from Vimeo or Youtube, it is allowed to share videos from those services here.
If you don't want people to share your videos, make your accounts private on youtube or vimeo.
These are the guides of Beacon of Light

X and Tumblr are allowed.
NO terror or gloom/doom/terrorism materials, no absolute horror, or gore, or sensitive materials/ Don't be lewd, naive, gross, vulgar, bawdy etc on this network.
This is an OPINIONATED AREA -- many views. If you don't like a view or person, block them your best bet.
All users must be age 21+, not due to adult xxx but due to mature audiences.
Guides may be updated at any given time.
YOU MUST USE YOUR ACCOUNT. If you can post it too twitter and more you can post it here. Never posting a thing does not help this network grow. Invite your friends and encourage them to post. There will be rewards for posting!
ASK YOURSELF how to make this social more interesting! Post art, post links, post videos, post music! Post your blog! Post your face! Share a Vlog!
If someone isn't here, then invite them! It takes allot of people sharing to turn a bland soup into a thriving stew! Think about what you would like to share and share it.
We allow LGBTQ+ here, not your thing? Leave. Due to some AC Characters or Actors preferring an LGBTQ+ lifestyle or their scenes/games should not be dissed on because they play a man/female or are Gay/Bi, asexual and so on. Either you love all of them or you have some questions to ask yourself. Hate for these genres will not be allowed. However, also if it picks a fight usually and you know people are close minded, don't post it to get something started.
IF I were a Character in a game, I would not want my fan to love me as a straight character only, so we can have adventures together, just because I am Gay/Bi or whatever doesn't mean we couldn't hang out without my sexuality being a problem lol You don't become gay/bi by hanging out with people who are and so on. Quit roleplaying in your head. It's tacky.
POSTING OF GIFS/IMAGES:
WE allow the posting of gifs, from giphy, tenor, blingie, and other places on the web. If you see YOUR image on this site from a GIF, don't upload it to the web. These images are shared, in the free domain which we consider GIFs, to be. If you don't think so, go back and remove your content. (If your name or username is written on a GIF, then consider to make the GIF private, if it is used, it is considered SHARING, NOT STEALING)
Tagging it with a username means you uploaded the GIF, it does not mean it's your GIF and your GIF alone, because GIPHY and so on was made to share media.
VP May be shared under these same rules and guides. If you don't like it, don't post it here. If you have a watermark on your works, that is fine too. You can post it but don't post a tumblr url. We accept photobucket/image shack, tiny url, GIF/GIPHY and so on, and your hard drive, and pinterest. If you do not, sad I am, Move along now and go on with yourself. :white_frowning_face:
Verification:
Verification is FREE here, yep were not hard asses about things. You can choose the plain check or pick the badge of your choice during the process of creating a profile. The plain check mark changes in color throughout the site depending on the color scheme of the page or group.
WE have no rate limits - We don't schedule free and paid people like twitter/X/bsky does.
Donations/Advertising:

All donations and subscribes are done through paypal.me and You don't have to have a business license to do so. (No one is employed through this social site, mods work volunteer hours)
