What are forum guidelines?

Answer

Tripadvisor forums are moderated spaces where travelers can ask questions, share experiences, and give advice. The platform has specific guidelines to ensure discussions remain helpful, respectful, and safe for all users.

General Forum Guidelines:

Respectful behavior: Posts should be polite and considerate. Avoid offensive language, personal attacks, or harassment of other users.
Relevant content: Keep discussions on-topic for the destination or subject being discussed. Irrelevant posts may be removed by moderators.
No spam or self-promotion: Avoid posting advertisements, promotional links, or repeated content. Recommendations should be based on genuine experience.
Privacy and safety: Do not share personal information (yours or others’), including contact details or sensitive travel documents.
Accuracy and helpfulness: Aim to provide clear, accurate, and helpful information. Speculation or unverified advice should be labeled accordingly.
Language: Use clear and understandable language. Avoid excessive abbreviations, slang, or non-standard characters that might make posts difficult to read.

Post Removal and Author Rights:

Authors can request the removal of their own posts. Moderators typically comply, which is why some posts may no longer be visible.
Posts may also be removed by moderators if they violate forum guidelines, even without an author request.
Repeated violations of guidelines can result in warnings or suspension of the user’s forum account.

Overall, Tripadvisor forum guidelines are designed to maintain a friendly and informative environment where travelers can safely exchange experiences and advice. Following these rules helps ensure discussions remain valuable and accessible for everyone.
