Update regarding community safety on VGen
UNETHICAL BROKERS:
Happy to say we’ve identified many previously unconfirmed JRUhub brokers, affiliates, and other unethical group accounts and they have all been banned for misrepresenting the nature of their profiles and services, intentionally inviting bad actors, and ban evading.
Big thank you to everyone in our community who has helped to investigate, report on-site, and provide detailed proof that our team were then able to review and take action on. Thank you for helping us keep the community safe!
REMAINING BROKERS:
In the short term, broker discovery has been rebalanced, their withheld funds processed through VGen Payments may not be released until after a commission is complete, and all brokers will continue to not have any invite codes. If any broker accounts mistype themselves as an individual or studio, they will now be suspended for at least 1 month immediately upon discovery.
We are still evaluating whether additional long-term actions are required.
Please do not assume all brokers are bad. However, if you do see suspicious behaviour, please continue to report them on-site and we will investigate.
ARTIST INVITE CODES:
There is now a hard limit of 2 unused artist invite codes per Verified Artist at any given time. If you earn more through a challenge or special event drop and you already have 2 in your dashboard, you won’t receive any more.
ARTIST CODE GIVEAWAYS:
Effective Nov 1, 2026, general contests, raffles, or applications are no longer allowed, even if recipients are screened. This is due to the increasing sophistication of groups who fraudulently misrepresent themselves as individuals.
If you see someone hosting a raffle or are in violation of our Artist Code Policy in any way, please report them on-site with a screenshot or link to their violating post and we’ll investigate. Their first offence will result in a warning before more severe administrative actions may be taken for repeated offences, including losing verification status and suspensions.

we’re coming up to 4 years of vgen in nov and admittedly, many of our ops / moderation processes have only gotten expanded over time without any fundamental updates.
but as systems get with scale, they are now reaching their limits and it’s time we re-evaluate and rebuild to really consider the scale at which we operate now.
we do think there’s more we can do but it’s going to take us some time because these changes will require a complete reworking of all our ops processes and how they work together to simultaneously keep vgen welcoming to human artists and safe from those pretending to be.
these challenges were much easier to deal with when we were smaller, but now being the home to so many artists and clients around the world, these challenges have become harder -
however, with our team and community behind us, we’re confident we’ll be able to find the best solution moving forward, as we’ve done many times in the past.
while the fall26 product roadmap has been locked in for a while and cannot be changed (icymi app is coming), we will be conducting a full assessment of our ops processes (incl but not limited to applications, artist codes, verifications, moderations, AI reports, and brokers).
we appreciate your efforts to keep the community safe and keep us accountable - we love our community and we’re forever grateful that you care.
we promise to do more and we’ll share more about how we’re thinking about these systems moving forward during our upcoming fall26 anniversary release stream in nov.
thank you for your help, patience, and understanding as always 💚
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 💚
on a personal note:
it’s canadian thanksgiving, so i’m going to not be online for a bit - but i’m very thankful to be in a community of people who genuinely and passionately care 💜
big thank you to everyone who sends the sweetest and most supportive notes - they really help keep me and the team going 🫂
and we all express love in different ways, and tough love isn’t always the easiest to swallow, but i know some of you do express your care that way, and i’m grateful to you too (although sometimes that kind of love can also hurt a lot so pls remember we’re just people who are trying our best at the end of the day) 🥹
thank you for reading 💚

相当ヤバそうなフィッシングが流行ってるっぽい。
認証情報を入力する画面がsite .google .comなのでパスワードマネージャもすり抜けるっぽい。
単純にドメインみて「ヨシ！」ってすると死ぬので、これはいろんな人に共有しておいた方が良さそう
je viens d'être la cible du phishing le + sophistiqué de l'histoire informatique
- je reçois par email une prétendue alerte qui m'indique que j'aurais généré un accès tiers à mon compte Google pour un utilisateur @gmail que je ne connais pas
- l'email de l'émetteur no-reply＠accounts•google•com a tout d'un mail officiel @Google et Gmail ne mentionne pas la moindre alerte de suspicion
- je clique sur le lien, car le site de phishing hébergé sur le domaine google•com semble 100% legit, il fait même semblant de faire des vérifs de sécurité avec un CAPTCHA
- même mon password manager me propose de remplir l'email/pwd car j'ai un vrai compte sur sites•google•com (c'est Google qui offre l'hébergement de sites web)
- si je remplis les champs email/pwd, le hacker les récupère instantanément pour se loguer et récupérer tous mes accès Google/YouTube
cette attaque va faire mal, j'ai report à Google
comment j'ai compris que c'était du phishing ?
1 : le bouton d'action des emails Google est sensé être le gros bouton bleu, pas un lien juste au dessus
2 : en allant voir dans les détails le sender [mailed-by] est fwd•privateemail•com et non *bounces•google•com

I've been developing a dynamic chat overlay called CoziiLab, mainly because i wanted more interactions on my stream. it pulls Twitch, YouTube, and TikTok together.
it's in beta, any input is💕
