icon icon p

1. When playing a prank on a friend, please ensure you do not touch others' taboos; otherwise, a fun thing will become a disaster.

2. Despite the desire to have fun, ensure that all tricks are safe and avoid physical or psychological harm.

3. Do not damage others' real interests unless you are willing for the corresponding compensation. Otherwise, you may lose a friend as a result.

4. There are possibilities that your prank unconsciously provokes your friends. If others explicitly refuse, stop your trick timely.
