Hello everyone. Due to a recent event, and the popularity of F-List, I wanted to clarify our position as it regards to situations that occur outside of F-List. The administration, moderators, and operators of the website have a set of rules and expectations they adhere to when it deals with events that occur on the site. Sometimes, those events occur partially, or fully, outside of F-List, in places that we do not have any power to moderate, influence, or take action on. Even though we help maintain order on this site, it doesn't mean that anyone outside of F-List have to pay us any attention. Some people don't know that, but some people do. You may be asked to leave F-List and interact with others somewhere else. Please understand that it is significantly harder for us to help you, should you require F-List staff to help you, if any important part of it occurred off-site. While you are free to interact with others outside of F-List, you must also assume the risks in doing so. Another facet of this is the interactions about F-List that occur on other websites, and the individuals that may get involved. To be perfectly clear: at no time will a staff member ask you for your password, and no staff member will ask you for your account information outside of staff tools. Staff are allowed to reach you via any method directly on F-List (notes, PMs, tickets, chat, etc) and through email (via the dragonfru.it or f-list.net domains). In the event a staff member DOES reach out to via another method, they will encourage you to send in a ticket so that they can discuss it through official tools. A staff member will never promise that something will go a certain way without an actual investigation into the incident, since we are rarely so well-informed about position that we had already discussed it and came to a decision. Furthermore, we would never show favoritism towards any one party since our roles require absolute objectivity. To recap: Official staff will always communicate, or least direct back to, official channels to discuss matters. We will never compromise our integrity, nor react to any situation purely by emotion. If you do see any of this behavior, please inform the person affected to communicate to us directly on the site so that we can help them. Never ever EVER provide your account details to anyone. For any reason. At all. Not even for the reason you're thinking of. Not that one either. Whatever it is, it's not worth it. I'm sorry about such a serious post, but you guys are important to us and I want to make sure everyone is safe and secure, and, moreover, that people on the outside don't use the trust you have in the staff to take it out on you or your friends.
