UTeM Confessions Community Guidelines & Rules
UTeM Confessions Pro Max (UCPM) is dedicated to fostering an open, engaging, and supportive platform for the students and campus community of Universiti Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM). To ensure this space remains safe, respectful, and legally compliant, all users must adhere to the following rules before submitting content.
1. Core Community Standards
Targeted harassment, naming-and-shaming, malicious rumours, cyberbullying, or discriminatory remarks based on race, religion, gender, or disability are strictly forbidden. Posts targeting individuals with abusive intent will be rejected immediately.
Do not disclose personally identifiable information (PII) including student matric numbers, full IC numbers, private phone numbers, vehicle license plates, personal social media handles, or residential hostel room numbers without written authorization.
All uploaded images undergo human pre-moderation. Submissions must not contain NSFW/explicit content, unconsented photos of individuals in private spaces, or unblurred screenshots of private messaging apps.
Content promoting academic dishonesty (e.g., paid assignment completion, FYP ghostwriting rings, exam leakage), illegal gambling, substance abuse, or unauthorized political rallies is prohibited and violates the Communications and Multimedia Act 1998 (CMA 1998).
The confession board is not a classified ads billboard. Affiliate links, pyramid/MLM schemes, repetitive commercial spam, and bot-generated promotions will be blocked. Legitimate student services can be listed under the Marketplace Tab.
Constructive feedback regarding campus facilities, library services, Wi-Fi connectivity, or cafeteria food quality is welcomed when framed factually and respectfully. Critique the issue, not the person.
2. Moderation Workflow & Rate Limiting
Submissions are queued securely through encrypted APIs and screened by automated filtering algorithms and volunteer student moderators. A mandatory 30-second submission cooldown prevents spam flooding. Submission of a confession does not guarantee automated publishing.
3. Notice & Takedown Policy (Content Removal)
If a published confession inadvertently identifies you, infringes on your privacy, or causes personal distress, you can request an expedited takedown. Contact our admin team via our Telegram channel (@utemconf) or email utemconfessionpromax@duck.com with the post number and removal rationale. Verified requests are processed within 24 hours.
