Everything members post - Gallery uploads, marketplace listings, comments - Is reviewed by a human before it appears publicly, unless the member has an established history here.
That is slower than the alternative and it is the reason this site is worth reading.
Post this
- Your own screenshots, art, videos and analysis
- Findings, theories and breakdowns of official footage - Clearly labelled as theory
- Genuine swap, trade, wanted and giveaway listings
- Crew recruitment and looking-for-group posts in the dedicated crew directory
- Questions, corrections and disagreements, argued in good faith
Do not post this
- Leaks. Anything from the 2022 Rockstar breach or from datamining. Immediate removal.
- Other people's work uncredited. Credit the creator or do not post it.
- Codes, keys or accounts for sale. Prohibited without exception.
- Cheats, mod menus or exploits. Including links to them.
- Piracy. Including 'where can I download' questions.
- Hate speech, harassment or targeting individuals.
- Sexual or graphic content.
- Advertising and self-promotion spam. A link to your own work in a relevant discussion is fine. A profile that exists to post links is not.
- AI-generated content presented as a real screenshot or as your own art. Label it or do not post it.
How moderation works
- New accounts are held. Your first posts go to a review queue and are checked by a human before they appear.
- Trust is earned. After several approved posts, submissions publish immediately - But remain reviewable.
- Reports go to people. Every report is read by a moderator. There is no automated removal based on report count.
- Removals are logged. Every moderation action is recorded with the actor, the reason and the time.
- Bans are for behaviour, not opinions. Being wrong about the map size is not a bannable offence. Scamming people is.
Why the rules are this strict about links
Community sites die by link spam. A site that lets anyone post any link becomes a target within weeks, and the resulting mess damages every genuine member on it.
So: every outbound link a member posts is marked rel="ugc nofollow", links from new accounts are reviewed before publication, and profiles whose only activity is posting links are removed. None of this restricts genuine discussion; all of it makes the site useless to spammers.
Frequently asked questions
Why is my post pending?
New accounts have their first submissions reviewed by a human before publication. After several approved posts, submissions publish immediately.
Can I post leaks?
No. Leaked and datamined material is removed immediately and repeat posting results in a ban.
Can I sell things in the marketplace?
You can swap, trade, give away and recruit. You cannot sell codes, keys or accounts for money.
How do I report something?
Every upload, listing and comment has a report control. Reports are read by a human moderator, and the reporting and safety page explains the process.
