How do I report an inappropriate profile?
by tommy
Last post
 Thursday
...See more How do I report an inappropriate profile? Please note: this is only when you notice a profile with an inappropriate username, profile picture or bio. For reports or sharing concerns on a users conduct or behaviour in PMs, chatrooms or forums, please utilise the help desk [https://help.7cups.com/hc/en-us/requests/new].ย  When would I need to report an inappropriate profile? โ€ขย All profiles must abide by the community guidelines [https://www.7cups.com/community-guidelines/]. The safety patrol team are on hand to deal with any profiles which need to be rectified. โ€ขย If you notice a profile picture is inappropriate (e.g. shirtless/sexual/graphic/triggering). โ€ขย If you notice a profile's username is graphic, sexual, offensive or otherwise inappropriate. โ€ขย If you notice a profile's bio is unprofessional, graphic/triggering, sharing personal information or otherwise inappropriate.ย  If you are unsure about whether or not a profile is inappropriate, it is best to pass it over to a Safety Patrol member for them to review and check its appropriateness. Please note: the safety patrol team member will make an independent judgement and take appropriate action. If you feel the profile has not been effectively handled, you are free to reach out to a team leader (@tommy [http://www.7cups.com/@tommy] or @Rebekah [http://www.7cups.com/@tommy]).ย  How do I report an inappropriateย profile? โ€ข Visit the Teen Listeners [https://www.7cups.com/chat/?c=k2VowHPgmMxSy5k%21](Teens) or Listener Support Room [https://www.7cups.com/chat/?c=k2dmeXmbkuJO42uXh1iY] (Adults) and ask for a member of Safety Patrol (commonly referred to as SP). Members, you may request support from someone within the Teen Community Room [https://www.7cups.com/chat/?c=lWpldX2VmJydlLBuV1fGxg%21%21] (Teens) or Member Community Room [https://www.7cups.com/chat/?c=mGNkenecl-JO45ebV1nF] (Adults). Please do not share the username you are concerned about in the group chat room, instead PM the safety patroller once they have identified themselves to you.ย  โ€ข Find an active safety patroller by visiting this link [https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/?badge=405] (please note that this is only a list of listener trained safety patrollers and does not include member SPs), you can then directly PM them and make them aware of the profile.ย  โ€ข Contact an online ambassador [https://www.7cups.com/BrowseListeners/?badge=70] or the on duty community moderator (the community moderator can be found in the group chat rooms or find their schedule here [https://www.7cups.com/forum/groupmod/CommunityModeratorsLounge_2143/CommunityModSchedule_318786/]) โ€ข Complete the non-safety patrol report form [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeGECC4E9NeQzQp2Skspwu6VQBJfMYB2Ag-Btm93DN5w0vh8A/viewform] (this takes a little longer for us to action so preference goes to one of the above options if possible).ย  I received a message or email from 7 Cups telling me my profile is inappropriate. Can you help? We can definitely support you with correcting your profile so that it abides by the community guidelines! Please reach out toย @tommy [http://www.7cups.com/@tommy]ย or @Rebekah [http://www.7cups.com/@tommy]ย for assistance.ย  Additional Resources โ€ขย Safety at 7 Cups [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/IVSafetyResourcesEvents_1059/Safetyat7Cupsinformationprotocolandresources_202422/] โ€ข 7 Cups Safety Leaders [https://www.7cups.com/forum/safe7cups/General_2450/SafetyLeadersAcross7Cups_309284/]

Glitch with Listener account
by Hermitlight
Last post
 July 15th
...See more After changing my password on my Listener account last Thursday, it automatically locked me out of my Listener account to where it automatically logs me into my member account with no option to log into my Listener account. I put in a support request for this, but still have not heard back. My main concern is that my regular listenees will wind up thinking I'm ignoring/ghosting them if this goes on any longer as there appears to be no way to message my listenees from my member account to tell them what happened. I'm not sure what to do.
Need advice!

...See more Hello, Gentle Reader... I was wondering if there was a way on this website, that the listeners among us could discuss and learn something from one another. If you have been here long enough, you realize you use the same language mannerisms all the time, from your choice of greetings and reactions to the story you're reading. There may be good ideas among the whole group if this kind of communication is allowed. What do you think? What do you known about the rules? Thanksย ๐Ÿ˜€

User Not Found LIsteners
by AffyAvo
Last post
 February 1st
...See more I would say at least 1/month I when browsing listeners within the first 9 I see one where the profile preview looks normal, with the exception of no chat now/leave a message appearing under their name. When you hover over this accounts, it says user not found and their profile links to this Not FoundOops! The content you're attempting to access could not be found. For assistance please contact theย Support Desk [https://help.7cups.com/]. Why does this happen? If they do need to appear in browse listeners for some reason, why so high up?
Site Abuse Issues
by Nightowl01
Last post
 December 17th, 2023
...See more There is a problem which has been ongoing for a while here. It is to the point where I feel like quitting as a listener and leaving the site forever. It is no secret that there are certain repeat members here who are misusing the intent of this website. They block immediately upon a chat being accepted, because they are trolling hoping to find a certain type of listener who they can manipulate with their made-up stories. Sexual-oriented screennames keep popping up in the que, men looking to have an inappropriate chat with women. This is not a dating chat site! I also get many members begging me for my contact info outside of the site. They don't want to talk to me unless I go off-site. Also the same very similar screennames keep popping up in the que with the same problem every day. Obviously accounts that got deleted, so the same person comes back again and just makes a similar screenname. Why doesn't the site start blocking IP addresses so these trolls can't keep coming back and wasting our time? So what is the site doing to deal with these problems that are dragging down the reputation of 7cups? It is really making me lose my faith in humanity.

Community Guidelines

๏ปฟ๐ŸŒŸWelcome!๐ŸŒŸ

As this is our Safety sub-community, these guidelines are extra extra important! ๐ŸŒŸ here they are below;

1. Please, be kind to all users. Forum posts/comments that attack or otherwise offend another user will be removed.
2. No offsite contact sharing. This is strictly against site rules.
3. Please, stay on topic to the best of your ability!
4. Please, keep confidential information to yourself. This means no sharing of usernames, messages in a 1-1 or a group setting, or any details about a member chat. Take any and all issues that you'd like to discuss in more depth to Rebekah or tommy.
5. Please, try to post threads within the relevant sub-forum! We understand that this might not be easy, but posting a thread such as "Hello, I'm new!" would clearly not be suited to Part 8 - Safety Activities: Discussions, Events, and Games ๐ŸŒž
