Effective October 29, 2026
1. Be honest
Use your real identity or legitimate business identity. Describe skills, qualifications, availability, pricing, location, and work accurately. Do not impersonate another person or business, manufacture reviews, post bait-and-switch offers, hide important conditions, or claim licenses, insurance, or experience you do not have.
2. Be respectful
Communicate professionally. Harassment, threats, hate speech, sexual harassment, stalking, intimidation, unwanted repeated contact, and degrading or discriminatory conduct are not allowed. Do not retaliate against someone for declining work, leaving an honest review, blocking you, or making a good-faith report.
3. Protect privacy
Do not publish another person's address, phone number, identification, financial details, private messages, or other personal information without a legitimate reason and permission. Use an approximate area, postcode, or public landmark in public listings rather than a private home address. Share only the information needed to arrange the job.
4. Post legitimate local work
Listings should describe a real job or service, use the correct category, and provide enough information for a member to make an informed decision. Do not duplicate or flood listings, manipulate search, use irrelevant keywords, distribute spam, recruit for pyramid schemes, or post misleading remote-work offers.
5. Prohibited offers and conduct
Do not use Block Space to offer, request, promote, or facilitate:
- Illegal activity, stolen goods, fraud, money laundering, or evasion of law enforcement.
- Weapons, controlled substances, counterfeit goods, or regulated products sold without required authorization.
- Sexual services, exploitation, trafficking, or content involving minors.
- Violence, abuse, dangerous challenges, or instructions intended to cause harm.
- Malware, credential theft, unauthorized access, account sales, or deceptive financial schemes.
- Academic cheating, forged documents, fake reviews, or identity misrepresentation.
- Work requiring a license, permit, certification, insurance, or safeguarding check when the provider lacks it.
6. Use payments carefully
Agree in writing on scope, price, milestones, expenses, and refund terms. Block Space does not hold or guarantee member-to-member funds. A dashboard payment status is only a member's confirmation that payment occurred elsewhere. Do not pressure someone to pay immediately, move funds for a stranger, accept suspicious overpayments, share banking passwords, or send gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers to “unlock” work.
7. Reviews must reflect completed work
Reviews should be specific, relevant, and based on a completed Block Space work order. Do not trade or purchase reviews, coordinate ratings, threaten a poor review to gain money or concessions, reveal private information, or review a person you did not work with. Disagreement alone is not grounds to remove an honest review, but content may be removed when it violates these rules.
8. Report and block
Use the Report control on a listing or profile when you see spam, suspected fraud, harassment, prohibited activity, or exposed private information. Use Block in message conversations to stop further contact. Include clear, factual detail in reports; knowingly false or abusive reports may themselves violate these guidelines. For immediate danger, contact local emergency services.
9. Enforcement
Depending on context and severity, Block Space may warn a member, remove content, restrict marketplace actions, suspend or terminate an account, preserve evidence, or refer a matter to appropriate authorities. We consider available context and may not disclose private details about an investigation or action taken against another member.
10. Questions
These guidelines work together with the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Questions or safety concerns may be sent to blockspaceadmin@gmail.com.
