The Rib Connection Rules:
1. You must be 21 years of age or older to become a member. We take this seriously; any individual who is found to be under this age limit will be immediately removed from the community. This also means we don’t allow any connections or attendance of minors.
2. Be Truthful. The Rib Connection was created for people who are looking for real connections that can lead to marriage. This means being truthful in your application, showing up authentically, and being clear with your intentions. References will be checked to vouch for your integrity, whereas upon acceptance, a potential match may obtain your email. Deceiving others about you is misaligned with our values of honesty and authenticity. That is detestable to our community.
3. Remain respectful. We expect each of our members to treat one another with dignity and respect. While we do not control your personal interactions via email, Respectful behavior is expected across any space we share (ie. event or group chat). Respect the opinions of others, even if you do not agree. We prohibit harassment (including sexual harassment), bullying, or intimidation, including repeated, unwanted contact either online or in person.
4. Maintaining a Safe Environment. Your safety is our top priority. The best connections happen when people feel safe to be their full selves. We do not allow threats, intimidation, or any behavior that suggests, incites, or causes harm toward another person - either online or in person. This also includes Violent or Graphic components.
