Global Guidelines
These guideliens apply to every meme. As they're universal, they're pretty strict so as to not ban a wide range of memes.
NSFW
Not Allowed
- Pornographic (even remotely) imagery of any kind.
- Any (even remotely) NSFW content of minors in any way, shape, or form.
Profane Language
Not Allowed
- Any racial/lgbt/etc slurs are absolutely unacceptable.
Family Friendly Guidelines
NSFW
Content and memes that would generally be offensive to a younger audience. This is a meme website, not a lewd website. If you want lewds, go to iFunny.
Lewd - A lewd is a photograph of someone or something as a tease. Not a full on nude showing your private parts but teasing the receiver of the photograph.
(Urban Dictionary)
Not Allowed
- Pornographic imagery of any kind is not welcome here.
- Anime Waifus that are lewd…. GET THEM OUT OF HERE. Save that for your weird Discord chats

Profane Language
Profane language constitutes as foul/unacceptable language. Memerator is designed to be family to teen friendly, as it is being used in schools. We don't wanna get blocked! These are up to our discretion, but you can test this by reading the meme to your grandma. If she's like >:(, maybe don't post it.

Allowed
