ファン創作ガイドラインは、ルールを守って、みんなが楽しくファン創作をするためのものです。ガイドラインの参考として、まずは、SHOW BY ROCK!!のファン創作活動ガイドラインを読んでみてください。
ガイドラインは理解したけど、どうやって書いたら良いかわからないときは聞いてね。

[耳族]はこれから、ファン創作を中心としたファンのみなさまとの双方向のコミュニケーションを通して、盛り上がり続けるコンテンツになることを目指したいと思っております。
ファン創作は、[耳族]を愛していただいている表現方法の一つであると理解をしており、それらのファン創作活動を敬意をもって応援していきたいと考えております。
そのために[耳族]のファン創作活動ガイドラインを設定させていただきました。これは、これまで・これからのみなさまの活動を何ら制限する意図はなく、可能な範囲で少しずつ公認化していくことを目的に設定しております。

このガイドラインの設定によって、みなさまが楽しくファン創作活動ができ、またその作品に対して素直にいいね！と言いあえる、みんななかよく[耳族]を楽しめる、そんなコンテンツになればという願いをこめています。
