Friend Request & Interaction Policy

Before You Send a Friend Request – Please Read

Thank you for visiting my profile!

To maintain a respectful and enjoyable space — both personally and professionally — I kindly ask that you keep the following in mind:

• I only accept friend requests from genuine, well-completed profiles. Your profile should include enough information to show me who you are. I understand if, for privacy reasons, you prefer not to use a photo of yourself, but having a clear and recognizable profile photo (not a cartoon, celebrity, or AI image) is a strong plus. Anonymous, empty, or vague accounts will not be accepted — I need a sense of the real person behind the request.
• You must be at least 18 years old. I do not accept friend requests from minors — this space is intended for adult interaction only.
• Do not send repeated friend requests. If I decline or remove your friend request, please do not send it again — multiple attempts will not change my decision and are considered disrespectful.
• I do not accept friend requests from so-called “friend collectors”. If you add thousands of people — which makes genuine interaction impossible — I will not accept your request, or I may remove you later from my friends list. The only exception is for bands and artists, as I understand that promoting music often involves connecting with a large audience.
• AI-generated or fictional identity band/artist profiles will not be accepted. If you're representing a band or artist, please make it clear who you are and what your role is.
• I reserve the right to decline or remove friend requests and connections from anyone displaying inappropriate, disrespectful, or unprofessional behavior — whether before or after a request is accepted. I actively maintain a respectful and professional space.
• Clear and respectful communication applies to messages as well. I value thoughtful interaction and mutual respect in conversation. Please include a brief introduction when reaching out — it helps me understand your intent. I usually don’t respond to one-word messages like “hi”.
• This profile reflects my work as a writer for a music magazine, but it’s also a personal space. I aim to keep it a warm, welcome, and genuine environment.
• Please respect the privacy and copyright of my creative work and of the artists I interview for Peek-A-Boo magazine. All written interviews and related content are copyrighted by myself and Peek-A-Boo magazine. Unauthorized sharing, copying, or distribution is not allowed.
• I take time to review friend requests before accepting. I also maintain a manageable friend list and may remove inactive or unresponsive connections to focus on meaningful interaction.
