Community Guidelines

Plot is a strictly safe-for-work (SFW) platform. Every character prompt, every user message, and every AI-generated response passes through automated content moderation before it is shown. Content that is sexual, graphic, hateful, dangerous, or otherwise unsafe is blocked or rewritten before it reaches you.

We do not offer an “adult mode”, an age-gated unfiltered tier, or any setting that disables moderation.

• Plot is interactive fiction with AI-powered characters.
• Plot is not a dating app, companion app, hookup service, relationship simulator, or therapy tool.
• Characters on Plot are clearly labelled as AI and as fictional. Every chat surface includes a visible reminder that characters are not real people.
• Plot does not facilitate direct user-to-user messaging. All conversations are between a player and an AI-driven fictional character.

The following content is prohibited anywhere on Plot — in character prompts, player messages, uploaded images, display names, bios, or AI-generated responses.

a) Sexual or explicit content

• Explicit descriptions or depictions of sexual organs, sexual acts, or nudity.
• Romantic scenarios that imply, suggest, or build toward sexual activity, including “fade to black” framings used as substitutes for explicit content.
• Sexualised roleplay with any character regardless of the character's description, age, species, or form.
• Any content that sexualises minors. This is a permanent ban on first offence, and we report to NCMEC where applicable.
• Content intended to facilitate sex work, escort services, pornography distribution, or prostitution.

b) Graphic violence or harm

• Realistic depictions of people or animals being killed, maimed, tortured, or abused.
• Content that encourages, glorifies, or provides instructions for real-world violence, terrorism, or weapons use.
• Adversaries within a story may not exclusively target a real race, culture, religion, government, corporation, or identifiable real-world group.
• Content that encourages, glamorises, or provides instructions for self-harm, suicide, or disordered eating.

c) Hate, harassment, and discrimination

• Slurs, dehumanising language, or content that attacks or demeans people based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, caste, sexual orientation, gender identity, disability, age, or serious medical condition.
• Harassment, stalking, threats, or doxxing of any real person — including fans, creators, public figures, or other users.
• Content that denies, trivialises, or celebrates atrocities or mass violence.

d) Real people and minors

• Characters may not impersonate real living public figures or private individuals (including celebrities, streamers, politicians, and athletes) in a way a reasonable person could mistake for the real person.
• Characters described, implied, or depicted as minors are prohibited, regardless of the story context.

e) Illegal, dangerous, or deceptive content

• Instructions for making weapons, explosives, drugs, malware, or other dangerous goods.
• Content that facilitates fraud, phishing, piracy, or evasion of law enforcement.
• Medical, legal, financial, or mental-health diagnosis or treatment advice presented as authoritative. Characters with those professions must remain clearly fictional and must not tell players what to do with their real lives.
• Misinformation about elections, public health, or other topics where false information causes real-world harm.

f) Platform abuse

• Attempts to jailbreak, bypass, disable, or manipulate Plot's moderation systems (for example through encoding tricks, indirect prompts, or fictional framing used to elicit prohibited content).
• Spam, coordinated inauthentic behaviour, vote/favourite manipulation, or artificially inflating character engagement.
• Unauthorised commercial activity, advertising, or solicitation inside chats or character profiles.

Creators — users who publish characters on Plot — take on extra responsibility for the content produced by their characters.

• Every new or updated character prompt is scanned against these Guidelines before it can go live. Prompts that fail moderation are blocked or returned for edits.
• Creators are responsible for the personality, backstory, greeting, and scenario fields of their characters. Writing a prompt designed to coerce the AI into producing prohibited content is itself a violation.
• Uploaded character art must be original or properly licensed, must not depict minors, and must not be sexually suggestive.
• Characters may not pose as licensed professionals giving binding real-world advice.
• Repeated or severe violations result in the loss of publishing privileges and, where appropriate, account termination.

• You must be at least 18 years old to use Plot.
• Do not attempt to push characters toward prohibited content. Our moderation pipeline records attempts; repeat attempts result in warnings, message limits, or bans.
• Use the “Report” control on any character, message, or story that violates these Guidelines. We prefer reports over silent blocks because they help us fix the underlying problem.
• Do not share personal or sensitive information with characters — they are fictional, their replies are generated by a language model, and your messages are retained according to our Privacy Policy.

Plot runs a multi-layer moderation pipeline internally known as “Vex”. Every piece of content that enters or leaves the system is inspected.

• Creator-submitted prompts are scanned at publish time. Disallowed content is blocked; borderline content is flagged for human review.
• Player messages are filtered in-flight. Messages that attempt to elicit prohibited content are refused and logged.
• AI-generated responses are re-checked before they are shown. A response that drifts into prohibited territory is rewritten or replaced with a safe refusal.
• Images uploaded as character art are scanned for nudity, violence, and other prohibited content.
• Human review handles every user report within 24 hours and also spot- checks flagged content.

Depending on severity and repeat history, we may:

• Remove the offending content.
• Issue a visible warning.
• Limit your daily message quota, suspend publishing privileges, or hide your characters from the discovery feed.
• Suspend the account temporarily or permanently.
• Report to law enforcement when required by law — including any content that sexualises minors.

We reserve the right to remove content or terminate accounts at our sole discretion when we believe the Guidelines, our Terms of Service, or the law has been violated.

Every character, message, and story on Plot has a Report control. Reports are routed to human review within 24 hours.

If your content or account has been actioned and you believe it was a mistake, you can appeal by emailing [email protected] with the character ID or report reference. We respond to appeals within five business days.

We update these Guidelines as the platform evolves and as new types of content or abuse appear. Material changes are communicated in-app and dated at the top of this page. Continued use of Plot after an update means you accept the revised Guidelines.

Questions about these Guidelines, or requests from regulators, researchers, and law enforcement, can be sent to [email protected].
