Roast Reels is all about good-natured roasting. Here's how we keep it fun for everyone.

The spirit of a roast

Roast Reels is comedy. A great roast pokes fun at the moment, the decision, or the vibe — not the human worth of the person. Punch at the bad shot, the questionable outfit choice, the main-character energy. We celebrate while we needle. If a joke is meant to genuinely hurt someone, it doesn’t belong here.

What makes a great roast

  • Self-roasts and good-natured ribbing of friends who are in on it.
  • Riffing on the action, the setting, the props, the confidence, the chaos.
  • Backhanded compliments and beginner’s-luck accusations when something actually works.
  • Clever over cruel. The funniest roast is the one everyone — including the target — laughs at.

House rules — not allowed

To keep it fun for everyone, don’t upload, submit, or generate content that:

  • harasses, bullies, or threatens a real person, or is meant to genuinely demean someone;
  • targets or demeans people based on protected traits — race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, age, and the like;
  • mocks someone’s body, weight, or appearance in a cruel way (roast the outfit and the vibe, not the body);
  • is sexual, hateful, violent, or involves minors in any inappropriate way;
  • is illegal, infringes someone’s rights, or impersonates someone;
  • shares private information (doxxing) or anything shared without consent;
  • is spam, scams, or attempts to break or game the platform.

Roasting other people

Roasting yourself? Go wild. Featuring someone else who’s identifiable? Make sure they’re cool with it — you need their consent. Roasts of public figures (including the Celebrity Edition) are satire and entertainment, get extra review, and audience topics there are approved by the host before the booth uses them.

Live & audience topics

In live and audience modes, viewers suggest topics — they don’t write the roast. The AI takes the idea, applies its own guardrails, and writes the line; submissions are never read out verbatim and are moderated before they reach the booth. Hosts can skip or hide anything. Keep your suggestions playful and within these rules.

Advertising

Sponsored content should be honest and clearly itself. Advertisers also follow our Advertiser Terms (truthful claims, required disclosures, no targeting kids).

Reporting & enforcement

See something that crosses the line? Use the report button on comments and reels, or email safety@roastreels.com. We may hide, remove, or refuse content and suspend or terminate accounts that break these guidelines. Creators and hosts can also moderate comments and topics on their own content.

How this fits with our Terms

These guidelines are part of the acceptable-use rules in our Terms of Service. They’ll evolve as the community grows — when in doubt, keep it good-natured.
