Gentle reminder that: ❌ AI is not allowed on VGen regardless of if the user is an individual or group account ☑️ You can filter for individual artists if you'd prefer to work with independent artists If you suspect there's AI on VGen: Please report it with any supporting proof on-site using the 'report' button. We'll manually investigate and either: - take action immediately if proof is solid - place on watch list if we're suspicious but don't have enough proof to be certain - dismiss the case if we disagree with the claim - dismiss the case because no proof is provided (TBH many reports are in the last two categories. but rest assured that reports are tracked, so if future proof is provided, the case may be reopened) If you suspect a user is a broker pretending to be an individual artist: Please also report them. We'll also investigate and if they're deemed to be a group account, they will be labelled correctly if it was a mistake, or banned if they are in violation of our ToS. Please note that even with our invite code system, with over 200K artists and 1.4M users on-site, there are going to be at least a few bad actors, and we're always diligently reviewing through reports to weed them out. However, we're also extremely mindful that we are the home to so many artists' livelihoods. A false positive on an AI report could mean the difference between someone being able to pay rent or not - which means we're careful to only take action when we're confident, and we have appeal systems for when we do inevitably make mistakes. We're always looking to improve and we'll keep doing our best to keep our artists and community safe. Our smol but dedicated team of 22 thank you for your patience, understanding, and support. Above all else, thank you for supporting human artists! We're really grateful you care 💚
