Community Guidelines

Last updated: June 2026

Our Standard

Nation.Tattoo is a professional community for tattoo artists, piercers, body modification practitioners, and the people who love their work. We hold everyone to a standard of respect, authenticity, and professionalism.

Real Profiles Only

Every artist and studio profile must represent a real, operating business or practitioner. No fake accounts, no impersonation, no placeholder listings. Fabricating credentials, reviews, or portfolio work results in permanent removal.

Content Rules

  • Portfolio images must be your own original work
  • No sexually explicit content
  • No hate speech, racial slurs, or content promoting violence
  • No content glorifying self-harm
  • No spam, unsolicited promotions, or repetitive posting
  • No watermarked images stolen from other artists

Reviews and Feedback

Reviews must be based on real experiences with the artist or studio. Do not post fake positive reviews for yourself, fake negative reviews for competitors, or reviews in exchange for compensation. See our Review Policy for full details.

Respect

Harassment, threats, doxxing, and targeted abuse toward any community member will result in immediate account suspension. Artistic criticism is welcome; personal attacks are not.

Safety

Artists and studios must follow all applicable health and safety regulations in their jurisdiction. Do not provide services to minors without documented parental consent where required by law. See our Safety Disclaimer for more information.

Enforcement

Violations may result in content removal, temporary suspension, or permanent ban depending on severity. Repeat violations escalate automatically. You may appeal a moderation decision by contacting our support team.

Reporting

If you encounter content or behavior that violates these guidelines, use the Report button on the relevant profile or post, or contact us via our contact form.
