Reporting and moderation
How to report posts, assets, listings and people, what moderators can do, and what happens when something of yours is taken down.
DevNet is moderated by staff. Everyone follows the Terms of Service: no illegal, hateful or harassing content, no malware, no impersonation, no scams, and nothing you don't have the rights to.
What you can report
- Posts and replies on the feed: use Report on the post. Reasons: spam or scam, harassment or bullying, hateful content, sexual or graphic content, stolen or leaked content, misleading or impersonation and something else. For "something else", say what's wrong.
- Assets: use Report asset on the asset page, for leaked assets (shared without the original creator's permission), assets that break the terms, or another reason you describe.
- Acquire listings: use Report on the listing.
- Acquire deals: report a problem from the deal page, and the money stays held while DevNet looks. See Refunds and disputes.
- People in chat: block them from your DM.
You can't report your own content. Reports go to the moderation queue for staff to review. You don't get a reply for each one.
What moderators can do
- Remove posts and replies.
- Take down jobs and Acquire listings.
- Approve or reject assets, and act on asset reports.
- Ban accounts that break the rules.
A take-down always comes with a reason. If one of your posts, replies, jobs or listings is removed, you'll see it on your Overview or on the item itself, with the reason.
