Reporting Violations
If you encounter behavior that violates these guidelines, use the "Report" button within the chat. Provide as much detail as possible about the incident—this helps our moderation team take appropriate action. We review all reports promptly and may issue warnings, temporary suspensions, or permanent bans depending on severity.
Good faith reporting: Only report genuine violations. Misusing the report system may result in restrictions on your own account.
Consequences for Violations
We take rule violations seriously. Consequences may include:
- Warning: For minor first-time offenses
- Temporary ban: For repeated or moderate violations (ranging from hours to days)
- Permanent ban: For severe offenses or repeated violations
We reserve the right to determine the appropriate consequence at our sole discretion. Some violations—such as sharing illegal content or threatening violence—result in immediate permanent bans without warning.
Enforcement Approach
Our moderation combines:
- Automated systems: AI detects obvious violations in real-time
- User reports: Community-driven identification of problematic behavior
- Human review: Our team evaluates reports and makes final decisions
- Proactive monitoring: Random checks to detect violations users might not report
We continuously improve our systems to maintain a safe environment.
Appeals Process
If you believe your account was banned in error, you may contact us through our contact page with your account details and explanation. We review appeals on a case-by-case basis but reserve the right to uphold bans if we believe they were justified.
