VRChat World Moderation Guideline Question

Just wondering how this rule works.

In the context, would preemptively mean BEFORE any set-rules were broken by said user?

Unsure if this is the proper tagging for the site.

That is for before or after set rules.
Because Worlds are not allowed to ban users from accessing the world.

Basically, if a user breaks a world rule labeled very clearly at the start and gets kicked from the instance for breaking it = Allowed.

If you host group events and they break the rule and they get banned them from the group = Allowed.

However if you then add them to a blocklist that prevents them from accessing the world or disrupts their experience in a completely different instance where they had not broken the rule = Prohibited, and the user can report you / the world for doing this under that guideline.

Basically moderation can only be applied at a per-instance basis or a per-group basis, but not a per-world one.

@Shizue How does this apply as far as world staff joining a group instance and banning group staff or owners from their instance?

A World Owner entering an Instance to Kick people is allowed, actually banning them is not possible without enforcing via Udon, something that is against the rules.

So a world owner can just join a group instance and just because they don’t like them, kick the group owner or the group staff?

I’m not sure there’s ever been definitive testing on who has kick priority or even if there’s any.

I do remember one time a World Owner got kicked by a Group Admin but that was a while ago. For the record it was also a joke because none of us thought it was possible and we made a new world right after. That said I wouldn’t take this information as confirmation of anything specific.

At a technical level sure, but I’m pretty sure the group staff would be reporting the world creator for harassment.

I am guessing if you submit a report and you happened to be in the wrong, even if the other party didn’t report you, that you would be sanctioned correct?

Sanctions?

If you end up self reporting for something, they can always just tell you to stop.

referring to a vrchat report made against someone else. If you make a report against a user, world, group, exc.

Just don’t flood them with stuff if you’re not sure? :smiley:
