SAY ANYTHING...
SOMETIMES THE WORLD FUCKING SUCKS.
People suck. Your job sucks. Your ex sucks. You suck.
Whatever it is... get it out of your stupid brain and throw it into the world.
SAY THE FUCKING THING.
Be mad. Be nice. Be funny. Be rude. Be petty. Be ridiculous. Be honest. Be fucking real.
You say it anonymously. We post it anonymously.
YOU SAY IT. WE POST IT.
If it follows the rules, your exact words might end up on the Vent-a-Center socials for the world to enjoy, hate, laugh at, relate to or completely fucking ignore.
✎ We don’t rewrite it.
✕ We don’t clean it up.
A We don’t fix your grammar.
★ We don’t make you sound smarter.
✱ We don’t turn FUCK into ****.
YOUR WORDS OR NO WORDS.BREAK A RULE?
WE DELETE THAT SHIT.
No edits. No redactions. No second chances. So quit fucking overthinking it. Say something nice. Say something horrible. Complain. Celebrate. Shit talk. Tell somebody off. Admit you were wrong. Scream into the fucking internet.
PRIVACY.
DON’T MAKE THIS WEIRD.
Vent-a-Center lets you say the fucking thing without creating an account or putting your name on it. Anonymous does not mean magic, so here’s what actually happens.
WE DON’T ASK WHO THE FUCK YOU ARE.
You do not need an account, name, email address, phone number, profile, or social handle to submit a vent. The Vent-a-Center plugin does not intentionally save your IP address, browser user-agent, advertising ID, or fingerprint with your submission.
WE DO SAVE THE SHIT YOU TYPE.
Your words are stored in the private FYSFEE WordPress backend so a human can review them. We need to read the thing before deciding whether it gets posted or deleted.
DON’T IDENTIFY ANYBODY.
Do not put names, addresses, phone numbers, emails, social handles, workplaces, precise locations, or other identifying information in the box. If you identify yourself or somebody else anyway, that is information you chose to submit. Don’t fucking do that.
POSTED MEANS PUBLIC.
If approved, your exact words may be turned into a Vent-a-Center graphic and published publicly through FYSFEE, Vent-a-Center social accounts, websites, publications, or other FYSFEE channels without intentionally identifying you.
Once something is public, people can screenshot it, repost it, quote it, archive it, mock it, love it, hate it, or send it to their weird group chat. We cannot promise that a publicly distributed vent can ever be completely erased from the internet.
BREAK A RULE? DELETE.
If we reject a submission, our intended workflow is to permanently delete the stored vent instead of keeping a secret museum of everybody’s worst fucking thoughts.
THE INTERNET STILL HAS PLUMBING.
Our web host, WordPress infrastructure, CDN, firewall, security tools, or other providers may independently process ordinary technical information such as IP addresses and request logs to deliver and protect the site. Vent-a-Center does not control every infrastructure log outside the plugin, so we do not promise that using the internet makes you magically untraceable.
WE’RE NOT BUILDING AN AD PROFILE OUT OF YOUR RANT.
We do not intentionally use the contents of your vent to build a personal advertising profile about you or sell your submission as personal data.
QUESTIONS?
For a legitimate privacy question, contact FYSFEE using the contact information published on fysfee.com. Please don’t send somebody else’s personal information while asking us about personal information. That would be impressively stupid.
SHORT VERSION:
Don’t identify anybody. We hold your words long enough to review them. We post them anonymously or delete them. Public shit can spread. The internet still has server logs. Act accordingly.
TERMS.
THE FUCKING DEAL.
You type something. You hit FUCK IT. We decide whether it gets posted or deleted. These are the rules of that extremely complicated business arrangement.
1. YOU’RE GIVING US PERMISSION TO POST IT.
By submitting a vent, you give FYSFEE and Vent-a-Center a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, display, publish, distribute, promote, and format your submission for Vent-a-Center and FYSFEE channels. That includes putting your words into a branded image, resizing the design, and making technical formatting changes so the thing actually fits.
You keep whatever ownership rights you may have in your words. You are giving us permission to use the submission without paying you or identifying you.
2. YOUR WORDS OR NO WORDS.
We do not rewrite the substance of an approved vent to make you nicer, smarter, cleaner, or less fucking weird. We may make purely technical formatting changes such as line wrapping, typography, or image sizing. If it cannot be published under our rules, we can delete it instead.
3. THE FIVE SIMPLE FUCKING RULES APPLY.
No names. No personal or identifying information. Don’t confess to a fucking crime. No threats or plans to hurt someone. Don’t be a fucking idiot.
Those five lines are the simple version. We may reject or remove submissions that create legal, safety, privacy, platform-policy, copyright, harassment, exploitation, or other serious problems.
4. SUBMITTING DOES NOT MEAN WE HAVE TO POST IT.
There is no guaranteed publication. We can approve it, ignore it, reject it, delete it, remove it later, or shut down Vent-a-Center entirely. You do not get a publishing contract because you clicked a button that says FUCK IT.
5. DON’T SUBMIT SHIT YOU DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUBMIT.
You represent that you have the right to submit the words you send us and that doing so does not knowingly violate somebody else’s copyright, privacy, publicity, or other legal rights.
6. THIS IS NOT A CONFESSIONAL BOOTH.
Vent-a-Center is not your lawyer, therapist, doctor, priest, crisis service, or law-enforcement tip line, and using it does not create a confidential or privileged relationship. If you need emergency, legal, medical, mental-health, or other professional help, use the appropriate service instead.
7. NO MONEY. NO CREDIT. NO ROYALTIES.
If your vent becomes hilarious, viral, infamous, printed, reposted, discussed, or otherwise useful to the project, submission alone does not entitle you to payment, royalties, attribution, ownership of Vent-a-Center branding, or a cut of FYSFEE revenue.
8. THIRD-PARTY PLATFORMS HAVE THEIR OWN BULLSHIT.
Approved vents may appear on third-party social networks and services. Those platforms have their own terms, moderation systems, algorithms, screenshots, reposts, and policies. We do not control them.
9. DON’T TRY TO BREAK THE FUCKING WEBSITE.
No malicious code, denial-of-service attempts, security attacks, automated submission floods, or other attempts to fuck with Vent-a-Center, FYSFEE, WordPress, or the people running them.
10. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK.
Vent-a-Center is provided as-is and as-available. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, FYSFEE disclaims warranties regarding uninterrupted availability, publication, preservation, reach, accuracy, or fitness for a particular purpose.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, FYSFEE and the people operating Vent-a-Center are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from use of the service or public distribution of a submission.
11. ADULTS ONLY.
You must be at least 18 years old to submit content to Vent-a-Center.
12. COLORADO.
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable law requires otherwise.
13. WE CAN CHANGE THE DEAL.
Vent-a-Center is an experiment. We may update these terms, the rules, the service, or the way submissions are handled. The version presented when you submit applies to that use of the service.
SHORT VERSION:
Say the thing. Follow the rules. You give us permission to post it anonymously without paying you. We do not promise to post it. If it causes problems, we can delete that shit.
