You’ve fled your home, only to find yourself lost in space with a damaged ship. Your only option is to beam down to the planet below and gather the resources you need to repair your ship and set off to explore the vast, infinite universe...
Welcome, Protectors!
This is a community for Starbound, a 2D sandbox-adventure game in spaaaace! Whether you're here for the exploration, the OC creation, the building, Nuru, the modding, the lore, the RNG, the cooking, the penguins, the bug collecting, the bounty hunting, or just saving the universe from The Ruin, the Starbound Community welcomes you!
Community Rules
- All posts must follow Pillowfort's TOS.
- All posts must relate to Starbound in some way; such as fanworks, Let's Plays or screenshots, meta commentary, mod WIPs or recommendations, memes, etc.
- NSFW content is not allowed. (This rule may change in the future depending on community preference)
- Any form of bigotry (Racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, etc.) is not allowed.
- Harassing other users is not allowed. You are not required to agree with every member of the community, but you are required to be respectful in disagreeing. If you feel that another member has crossed the line or is making you uncomfortable, please flag the offending post or let a mod know in private. Do not feed the trolls.
- Common triggers and squicks must be tagged. These include things like violence, blood, gore, weapons, death, snakes, spiders, bugs, body horror (Including The Ruin), alcohol, drugs, flashing images/gifs, Tumblr/Twitter embeds, etc. (If you aren't sure what tags to use, please ask a mod!)
- Posts that aren't tagged for warnings appropriately may be removed. You can resubmit a removed post to the community, but you will be sent a notice on what tags to add to avoid being removed again.
- Please put text posts longer than 20 lines (As they appear in the Pillowfort post creation form) under a Read More. This isn't a hard rule (You won't be warned for going a little over), just a reminder to keep users on mobile (and those who struggle with text walls) in mind.
- Posts that are not your original content must have a link to their source, preferably via embed post. Do not steal.
Users who break the community rules will receive three warnings (One warning for severe offenses, such as harassment and bigotry) before being kicked from the community.
Tagging Guidelines
Tagging Guidelines are not hard rules and you won't receive warnings for breaking them, but please keep them in mind to the best of your ability.
- Tag the type of content in the post. This can include:
- Fanart
- Fanfic
- Original Characters
- Screenshots
- Builds
- Videos
- Let's Plays
- Livestreams
- Mods
- Music
- Memes
- Meta
- Gameplay questions
- Multiplayer partner searches
- Etc.
- Unique tags for your original content, preferably tags containing your username or nickname (i.e. Brad's OCs, Lizzie'sLet'sPlay, StarFlower0000 Fic, etc.) are better than generic tags like "My Fanfic," "My Meme," or "My Video."
- Remember that tags on Pillowfort are used for both blacklisting content you don't want and finding content you do want. Try to tag for both groups.
- Remember that tags (currently) don't carry over when reblogging. Don't forget to add them!
