Outfox Stories is a creative writing platform where authors can share original fiction. We require all users to be 18 years or older. We maintain high-quality standards and enforce content rules to ensure legal compliance and community safety.
We reserve the right to review your stories before they are published. If your story violates any of our rules below, or does not meet our quality standards, it should not be published on our platform.
These content rules apply to all content on our platform, including published stories, adventure outlines, and private chats/adventures. While private content is not publicly visible, we reserve the right to review it for compliance with our content rules. Violations of rules 4, 5, or 6 in any context may result in immediate account suspension.
