Community Safety and Contact (Reporting, Messages, and Getting Help)
Bright Haven is committed to keeping the Community welcoming, respectful, and safe. This page explains how to report issues, what to expect when you do, and the best way to contact our team.

Our Goal: A Safe, Uplifting Space
The Bright Haven Community exists to help readers and authors connect around clean, closed-door romance. We moderate with that mission in mind and take reports seriously.
If something feels off, please report it. You are helping protect the experience for everyone.
How to Report Inappropriate Activity
If you see content or behavior that violates community expectations, you can report it directly inside the Community.
What to report
Examples include:
- harassment or bullying
- hateful or discriminatory language
- spam or scams
- inappropriate or explicit content
- repeated disruptive behavior
What happens after you report
Once a report is submitted:
- our team reviews the report
- we may remove content, issue warnings, or take account action depending on severity
- we work to resolve issues as quickly and fairly as possible
Tip: If you can include a screenshot and the name of the Space or post, that helps us respond faster.
Direct Messages Are Disabled
To protect privacy and keep the community experience safe, Bright Haven currently has direct messages turned off.
If you need to reach an author, event host, or community leader:
- reply in the thread where they are posting
- tag them in a public comment (if available)
- use the chatbot to contact our team
