An Important Policy Update for WyvernChat
We're finally addressing community concerns around minors participating in the space.
As we continue to refine and improve WyvernChat, we must also take steps to ensure the safety and integrity of our platform. After careful consideration, we are implementing a new policy restricting minors from creating or interacting with public content on WyvernChat.
Effective Wednesday, February 19th, current users under the age of 18 will no longer be able to:
View public bots
Like public bots
Send friend requests
Access any public content on the site
New users that enter a birthdate under 18 years old will be declined from creating an account.
This policy also extends to our Discord server, where minors will no longer be permitted to participate.
Any minor with an existing WyvernChat account will not be banned outright. They will still be able to download or delete their bots at any time but will be restricted from engaging with public content.
After a lot of discussion amongst the team and from listening to feedback from what we believe is the vast majority of our community, we came to the conclusion that this is just the best way forward for us as a platform. This, of course, does not mean WyvernChat will shift its dedication from providing a curated and unpolluted experience in terms of moderation, with our team continuing our ongoing effort to ensure we never reach the lows of similar platforms in the space.
The reality is that the AI space is not built for children, and as the landscape continues to evolve, it has become clear that allowing minors to use WyvernChat presents risks we can no longer ignore. This change is necessary to protect both our users and the platform itself.
We understand that this may impact some users, but we believe this decision is in the best interest of our community moving forward. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

We each deserve a space, both SFW and NSFW, just as there are Disney films and there are adult films. To try to create some uncomfortable hybrid does no one any good; choose your path and embrace it fully.
There are endless sites that cater to the SFW crowd as that is easier, but the NSFW sites seem to fold by the day. First it starts with one minor thing being censored, then another: don't be led down that slope.
