CLICK HERE FOR DETAILS ON SAFE INTENT OF USE. *Because of the nature of intended use for this feature, some limitations apply to what is acceptable to post, comment, and/or share. Failure to comply may result in loss of accessibility to this feature as a member until further investigation has been completed. Our goal as a community is to inspire positive change. Not to encourage bringing others down. We are not here to judge, discriminate, or ridicule anyone or anything for any reason. Any such case upon investigation by our board will have a 0% tolerance policy. All parties involved in such case will be called to a virtual meeting with the board to discuss a fair resolution for our active members to feel comfortable and safe in our collaborative environment. We are a family here, and all will be treated as such. However, we are not here to censor creative intention and/or purpose either, which is why we as a board will dedicate the time into making sure all matters and/or violations are resolved in a respectful manner for all parties involved. ATTENTION: Our policy has a strict 0% tolerance against any political sway. All posting and/or ways of intent of use that are attempting to influence politics in any way shape or form is strictly prohibited. We are here to come together to shape the world for the better, not pin one another against each other. And being completely transparent... it's against our rights as a nonprofit... so there! 😘 QUESTIONS? CONCERNS? "What, but... WHY"s? >>>Contact Calyn directly to discuss it further.<<< calyndirectly@bridgesandbutterflies.org From all of us here at Bridges & Butterflies, SHINE BRIGHT LIKE A SPRITE Now go and let your creative wings fly!

Moderation of Intent of Use Bridges & Butterflies will extensively moderate the use of the XpressNConnect Feature at the sole discretion of our board members. Having moderators is a great way to ensure we as a collaborative are using this social network for proper intent and not violating our terms of service or spreading the wrong perception on who we are as a community. We are also able to provide eligible members milestones for proper intent of use through site moderation that can later be redeemed for a vast amount of perks and/or gifts that will be made available throughout our journey together. As this is a members only accessible feature, sharing posts on other forms of social media has restrictions due to our privacy policy. We as a collaborative will be sprucing up creative ideas as a collective and we do not want to share information to the public that could cause someones original works of any kind to be stolen or outed without their permission. If you believe anyone within the community is expressing wrongful intent of use, please contact our leaders immediately. We have a 0% tolerance policy on such occurrences and will promptly begin an investigation into the matter until a fair resolution amongst all parties involved has been reached. Moderators of the Community will have access to the following permissions: 😎 Block Users Move Posts From One Category to Another Delete Posts 🤓 From all of us here at Bridges & Butterflies, ~XpressNConnect responsibly!

Xpress Yourself | Every Voice Counts Your B&B Active Membership comes with access to the Members Area - which each of us can use to get to know who we are as a creative collective, while also getting to know each other as individuals. With personalized profile pages, this is where you have creative freedom to self Xpress, blog, acknowledge your work and/or accomplishments, and connect with other active members within the community. Here is also where you will want to include your creative background for fellow collaborators to discover the true inner you and what you are made of not only for future projects and recruitment, but to form lasting connections with like-minded individuals! The same type of moderation tools will apply to this feature as the Collaboration Station. Please use this feature responsibly and respectfully. A really unique XpressNConnect Feature but not as creatively free as the SelfXpressN blog made available to you. Here you will have more creative freedom to really Xpress yourself when you post versus your profile status updates. ***THIS IS NOT THE SAME AS YOUR SHOWCASE PORTFOLIO*** When visitors come to browse our collective and see what we are made of, they will not be able to access the 'Member's Area' features unless they create a login for privacy protection. That is what your showcase is for. Ensure you make your profile "public". When you start connecting with other members, the option to go public will be given. This will allow other members to see you in 'The Green Room', otherwise you won't be able to fully take advantage of our collaborative features. You will be able to: Add new posts, write comments, and like posts. Join conversations and follow posts. Upload media to personalize their page. Be notified of any new activity in discussions you choose to 'follow'. Utilize the chat feature to communicate with us here at B&B directly. Use the chat feature to communicate with other active members directly. From all of us here at Bridges & Butterflies, ~YOU are beautiful, and YOU are loved. THE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS.
