Community Guidelines

These are the official posting guidelines ("Site Guidelines") for www.2adays.com website, application or other interactive service ("Site"). The Site is owned, operated and/or provided by 2aDays, LLC. ("we," "us," or "our") and these Site Guidelines are a part of, and an Additional Terms under, our Terms of Use Agreement.

2aDays is the largest online destination for student athletes to research and rate coaches, athletic staff, colleges, and universities across the United States. Our mission is to provide a safe forum to share athletic experiences to help fellow student athletes make critical education choices.

THE SITE/APP

The 2aDays website (www.2adays.com) and mobile app provide user generated feedback on coaches' teaching methods and their respective sports as well as user generated feedback on the lifestyle and facilities of college and university campuses.

Ratings should only be posted by users that are athletes who are/were on the sports team, parents of athletes who are/were on the sports team or others who have first hand experience with the person/the campus visits/the facilities being rated. For each coach, staff, school facility, or campus visit, users are limited to posting one (1) rating. Facility ratings should only be posted by student athletes or the parents of student athletes who were or are currently participating in the specific sport of college or university being rated. Campus Visit ratings should only be posted by student athletes or the parents of student athletes who have participated in the campus visits of the specific sport at the college or university being rated.

2aDays is NOT the place to report dangerous, illegal or illicit behaviors. If you believe that you, another coach or staff, or a student is in danger, we strongly advise you to report such incidences directly to your campus authorities or local law enforcement.

HOW WE WORK

2aDays has a team of moderators who read every rating submitted. We have defined site guidelines to help reinforce our mission and most importantly to ensure our decisions around moderation are 100% consistent, regardless of student or coach or staff. Our moderators are experts on our guidelines and will remove any comment that doesn't comply.

Did we miss something? If you feel an inappropriate comment should be removed from the site, we want to know. You can flag a comment for re-review and it will immediately be escalated to our moderators. Moderators will determine whether to remove the rating permanently or restore it to the website. Our moderators will never edit a rating to make it comply or remove a rating simply because it is a low score or negative review.

GUIDELINES

Ratings Guidelines

  • Be honest in your reviews. You want to be able to trust these reviews when evaluating your options so we ask that to contribute in the same spirit.
  • When you are reviewing, it's often helpful to provide both pros and cons. This leads to much more credible and constructive feedback for your peers.
  • Reviews should focus specifically on the sport and your experience. Do not comment on a coach or staff's appearance, dress, age, gender or race.
  • Avoid hearsay. We want you to share your individual experience and what you took away from your experience. Don't speak on behalf of another, encourage others to submit their own reviews.
  • This is not a forum for debate. Reviews that specifically reference another review will be removed. If you do not agree with someone's individual experience, we encourage you to share your own.
  • We understand that not all coaches are the perfect match for each individual style. Tell us how the coach's or staff wasn't the best for you in a way that helps others make their own decision.
  • Reviews fueled by anger do not reflect well on the author and can be removed for violations such as profanity. Take a minute to step back and make sure your review will genuinely help others understand your experience.
  • 2aDays reserves the right to remove ratings that do not contain substantive comments.
  • We only allow one student to review a coach or staff one time. Spamming or dogpiling will lead to comment removal and the account being temporarily locked on the site.
  • When reading your fellow student athletes reviews, we encourage you to use your discretion and weigh every review amongst the others. Online reviews should be one of the many resources used when making a decision that affects your athletic and/or academic future.

Prohibited Content

Comments that contain the following will be removed.
  • Profanity, name-calling, and/or vulgarity, derogatory remarks about religion, ethnicity or race, gender, physical appearance, age, mental and/or physical disabilities.
  • Identifiable information about a coach, staff or student that would allow someone to contact the coach or staff/student outside of their school.
  • References to a coach or staff's, staff's or student's family, personal life and/or sex life, including sexual innuendos.
  • Claims about a coach's or staff's employment status, including previous employment.
  • Direct references to other existing comments or comments that have been deleted by our moderators.
  • Accusations that the coach or staff is rating him/herself or his/her colleagues.
  • A language other than English. Comments must be written in English only.
  • Hyperlinks and / or URLs.

Coach and Staff Guidelines

  • This is an anonymous website where student athletes can share their classroom experiences. We are unable to provide any data or personal information about the submitter of a review.
  • We are unable to remove a comment simply because it is negative. It will only be removed if it doesn't comply with our site guidelines.
  • Replies fueled by anger do not reflect well on the author and can be removed for violations such as profanity. Take a minute to step back and make sure your reply will genuinely help others.
  • 2aDays' moderation team is unable to prove or disprove details mentioned in a review. We are not arbiters of facts. If you disagree with the details mentioned in a review, please flag the post as inappropriate or email us at [email protected].
  • If you believe that your profile is being spammed or dogpiled, please tell us. You can contact us at [email protected]. We're here to help and will happily review the comments in question.
  • While it is against our guidelines for a coaches or staff to rate themselves, we recommend for coaches or staff to encourage their student athletes to provide ratings. The more reviews you have, the more representative they will be.
  • Coach or staff replies are subject to the same limitations regarding Prohibited Content, as set forth above.

FLAGGING A RATING

If you see a rating that you believe violates these Site Guidelines, please click the "Report Abuse" at the bottom of the comment and state the problem. Such comments will be evaluated by the Site's personnel. Please do not flag a rating just because you disagree with it.

SOME LEGAL STUFF

2aDays occasionally receives removal demands that include threats to sue 2aDays. To date, no one has followed through with a lawsuit against us for our reviews.

The law protects 2aDays from legal responsibility for the content submitted by our users, like the reviews that appear on our site. Specifically, the Communications Decency Act of 1996 (47 U.S.C. Sec. 230) created a federal immunity to any cause of action that would make service providers, like 2aDays, liable for information originating with a third-party user of the service.

The law is clear on this. Anyone who wishes to sue 2aDays for the reviews posted by our members risks penalties imposed by the court. These may include financial sanctions and reimbursement of our attorney's fees for our having to defend against a lawsuit that ignores obvious legal protections for 2aDays.

If, despite our caution, you feel that legal action is the only recourse for you, our address for service of legal process is:

2aDays, LLC
5680 John Givens Road
Crestview, FL 32329

If you intend to serve documents on 2aDays, LLC, please make sure that service is properly effected in the US in accordance with all applicable law. We are not obligated to respond if service is not valid.

These guidelines are provided for informational purposes only and do not constitute legal advice. While we stand by our guidelines, you are encouraged to seek advice from an attorney who is competent in the relevant field of law.
