Community Guidelines

1. Our Community

LiveForge is a place for creators of all backgrounds to share their passion. We believe in free expression within boundaries that protect our community's safety and wellbeing. These guidelines apply to all content, streams, chats, and interactions on the platform.

2. Prohibited Content

• Hate speech, discrimination, or harassment of any kind
• Sexual content involving minors — zero tolerance, reported to authorities
• Graphic violence or content glorifying self-harm
• Doxxing or sharing private information without consent
• Scams, fraud, or misleading promotions
• Illegal activities, drug use, or weapons trafficking
• Copyright infringement or unauthorized use of content

3. Streaming Standards

Streams must comply with both our guidelines and the terms of each platform you stream to. Age-restricted content must be properly labeled. You are responsible for what appears in your stream, including background audio and guest appearances.

4. Gaming & Competition

All gaming matches on LiveForge must be played fairly. Cheating, exploiting bugs, or colluding with opponents to manipulate outcomes is prohibited. Repeated violations result in a permanent ban from gaming features.

5. Gifts & Economy

Virtual gifts are a way to show appreciation for creators. Coordinated gift manipulation (buying gifts from multiple accounts to inflate rankings) is prohibited. Chargebacks and payment fraud will result in immediate account termination.

6. Privacy & Safety

Respect others' privacy. Do not share personal information about other users without consent — never share exact addresses in chat or streams.

7. Protecting Minors & Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM)

LiveForge has zero tolerance for child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and for any content that sexualizes, exploits, or endangers minors, in any form, anywhere on the platform — including live streams, videos, chat, CamMatch sessions, and profiles.

Removal: Content confirmed to violate this policy is removed immediately upon discovery, and the responsible account is permanently banned without warning.

Legal reporting: LiveForge reports confirmed CSAM to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) via its CyberTipline (report.cybertip.org), as required by U.S. federal law (18 U.S.C. § 2258A), and cooperates fully with law enforcement investigations.

Reporting a concern: Use the in-app report button (⋯ menu, on any stream, video, CamMatch session, or profile) or email support@liveforge.live — monitored directly by LiveForge's founder, who holds enforcement authority over this policy.

8. Enforcement

Violations may result in: a warning, temporary suspension, permanent ban, or legal action depending on severity. We use both automated systems and human review. Decisions are made consistently and fairly.

9. Appeals

If you believe an action was taken against your account in error, you may appeal within 30 days by contacting support@liveforge.live.

10. How to Report

Use the report button (⋯ menu) on any stream, video, or CamMatch session. For urgent safety issues, or anything not yet covered by an in-app report button, email support@liveforge.live directly.
