FAQ

Anyone from around the world!

You can join for free or be a part of one of our tiers. Our tiers include Starlet, Starlight, and Starry eyed. They have their own benefits and prices but just know all of them are worth it (and helps you get the information before anyone else)!

Safety is our number one priority. You can remain anonymous if you want, and your email address will never be publicly displayed. We spent months deliberating the safest options for survivors. Plus, we have disabled DMs between one another on Discord!

Of course! YOU get to decide your username!
