| • | updated >> Pages must contain viable, pertinent content. 'Under major construction' denotations and pages without any viable content will not be accepted into the ring. Please read more detail on the updates page. |
| • | The content on your site must pertain to the theme of yaoi/shounen-ai anime and/or manga. Live-action slash and real-life gay pornography are not allowed. We do allow original fiction and art, video game yaoi sites, and for now, JRock yaoi fanfiction. |
| • | We will not accept sites which display fan or original works (such as fiction and art) that have been taken from another yaoi web page, whether it is a Japanese, English, or another type of site, without the artist or writer's permission. This policy does not refer to commercial animanga scans you may have gotten from somewhere on the web. |
| • | We will not allow pay sites in the ring. This policy does not include pages who utilize free adult verifications like the services provided by Aestheticism's Virtual Yaoi City. |
| • | Members are required to put an HTML fragment/web ring logo on their page. People viewing their site travel around the ring using the commands supplied by this fragment, so it's necessary that the fragment is clearly accessible. |
