As most of us know, there's almost always an alternate meaning to specific terms or acronyms on Snapchat; however, forbidden means just that — not allowed or banned. More specifically, it indicates that a certain action is not allowed on the app.
If a user sends inappropriate or offensive content that violates Snapchat's terms of service, their account is at risk of being flagged as forbidden. The social media platform prohibits sexual content, bullying or harassment, threats and violence, hate speech, and spreading false information. Snapchat also forbids users from using the app for any illegal activity. With that said, we suggest you use the platform responsibly.

For starters, you must familiarize yourself with the terms of service because it's crucial to understand what is and isn't allowed on the social media service.
