Understanding Adult Content and Consent at VDF
The VDF Online Code of Conduct was created to find the balance between Radical Self Expression and Civic Responsibility when it comes to minors and Adult Content (18+).
So, what is 18+ content, exactly? The Code defines 18+ content as "Any explicit sexual content and / or nudity for erotic purposes or of an erotic nature."
What that means is that non-erotic nudity is allowed in All Ages rooms, just like at a camp at a physical burn. However, any nudity that IS of an erotic nature (including sexual arousal) must be in an 18+ room.
AND - All participants in an 18+ room MUST be on a live video stream to reasonably ensure that no minors are present. We call it “no lurking”. If everyone in an 18+ room consents, adult content of all kinds is allowed.
Please read the entire VDF Onlline Code of Conduct for all the details on 18+ content, Consent and Consent Violations in a virtual world, other prohibited behaviors such as hate speech or online bullying, how to report an incident, and more.
