Last updated: July 20, 2026 — Incorporated by reference into the Terms of Service
The Terms of Service is the binding legal contract. This document expands on it — in plain language and with more specificity — so that you understand exactly what you can do here, what you cannot, and what rights both you and the platform have when things go wrong.
We wrote this because we think transparency is the right approach. If you read this document and feel the platform's actual behavior contradicts it, contact us.
Before the detailed rules, here is the single principle they serve — so you understand not just what the rules are, but why they take this shape.
Forge enforces exactly one set of limits of its own making: the absolute prohibitions in Section 3a — sexual content involving minors, sexual content of real identifiable people, sexual content involving real animals, and real-world harm instructions. These are enforced by us, apply to every user and every tier, cannot be disabled by any setting, subscription, or model choice, and — in the case of the protections around minors — screen your input before any AI model ever receives it.
Past those absolute prohibitions, Forge does not add a content filter of its own. What a scene will or will not do is decided by the AI model you have chosen and its own training — not by us layering extra restrictions on top of legitimate creative work, and not by us instructing a model to defeat its own safety systems. We do neither. Forge provides the structure — characters, lorebooks, scenarios, memory — and then gets out of the way.
This is what Forge is: a tool for creative writing and collaborative roleplay, mature fiction with the same latitude a novel or a film has. It is not a service for bypassing or “jailbreaking” AI safety, and we do not treat the absence of a filter as a feature to advertise. That is a different product, for different purposes, and it is not the one we are building.
Every model we offer is personally reviewed by the operator before it is added to the catalog. We evaluate how a model actually behaves — where it is capable, where it is unreliable, and where its own limits fall — and then decide whether it belongs. The models you can choose from are a deliberate, curated selection, not an indiscriminate list of everything available.
If there is a specific model you would like to use that is not in our catalog, you are welcome to ask us at support@gamerzlanding.com. The answer may be no; it may be yes; and in some cases we may, at our discretion, facilitate a “bring your own key” (BYOK) arrangement so you can use that model with your own API key and provider account.
In every such case, the absolute prohibitions in Section 3a still apply in full. Our minor-safety screening runs on your input before it reaches any model, so it cannot be bypassed by requesting a different model or bringing your own key. That safeguard is not incidental — it is the precondition, and the reason we would consider an outside model at all.
"Forge" / "the Service" — The AI roleplay studio operated by Gamerz Landing at forge.gamerzlanding.com, including all features, APIs, and associated tooling.
"Gamerz Landing" / "we" / "us" — The sole proprietor operating the Service (Alexander Glanville, wordsmith.alex@gmail.com).
"User" / "you" — Any person who accesses or uses the Service under any account tier.
"Content" — Any text, images, audio, characters, lorebooks, scenarios, personas, or other creative material you create, upload, generate, share, or publish through the Service.
"AI Output" — Text, images, or audio generated by the underlying AI models in response to your prompts.
"Adult Tier" — The opt-in content mode available to age-confirmed users 18 years of age or older. Enabling it removes the SFW-only filter and extends the platform's mature-fiction latitude to adult themes, subject to all prohibitions stated in this document. It is a storytelling latitude, not a separate product.
"Character Card" — A structured data object (CCv3 format) defining an AI character's personality, background, dialogue examples, and associated assets.
"Community Library" — The public catalog of character cards and assets that users may voluntarily publish and share.
This section states affirmatively what you are allowed to do. Read it as a grant of rights, not a list of exceptions.
All of the above, with the latitude adult literature has always had. One thing first, because it defines this tier: Forge is a storytelling platform, not an erotica service. The adult tier exists so that mature fiction can be written honestly — it is not a catalog of content types, and content is judged by whether it serves character and story.
These rules apply to all content, all tiers, and all features. The Adult Tier does not create exceptions to any rule in this section.
Violation of any item in this section results in immediate permanent termination, no refund, and reporting to law enforcement where required by law.
These prohibitions reflect Forge's editorial standard — the line between creative fiction and content whose primary function is harm. We will exercise judgment in applying these, and we will err on the side of the standard.
Forge's core product is general-purpose AI roleplay and creative writing. The adult tier described in this section is an optional, age-gated layer available to verified users who choose to enable it — it is disabled by default for every account, including new signups and guests, and it is not the platform's defining feature.
The adult tier is restricted to users 18 years of age or older. You must affirmatively confirm your age before the adult tier is enabled on your account. This confirmation is a legal representation — knowingly misrepresenting your age to access adult content is a violation of these rules and, in many jurisdictions, potentially actionable independently of our enforcement.
We use a self-attested age gate during the beta period. We reserve the right to implement third-party age verification as the platform scales or as applicable law requires.
If you are a parent or guardian and believe a minor is accessing adult content through an account, contact us immediately at support@gamerzlanding.com. We will investigate and, where confirmed, disable adult content access and take appropriate action.
Adult-tagged community library content is not visible to users who have not enabled the adult tier. SFW users see only SFW community content. Adult content is never shown by default to any user, regardless of account age.
Subscription billing is not tied to whether you enable the adult tier. All tiers are billed through the same payment processor and appear on your statement the same way — enabling the adult tier does not create a separate purchase, checkout flow, or billing relationship. We may change payment processors at any time, as described in Section 6 of the Terms of Service.
These are the specific rights you have as a user, and the actions available to you when something goes wrong.
If your content is removed, your account is suspended, or a feature is restricted, you have the right to request a review by emailing support@gamerzlanding.com with:
We will acknowledge appeals within 5 business days. We will issue a decision within 14 business days for non-emergency cases. For permanent bans, the decision is final once issued. For content removal, we may restore content if we determine it was removed in error.
What we will not do: We will not debate moderation decisions in real-time chat or over multiple email threads. One appeal per incident. We will explain the rule that was applied but will not negotiate the rule itself.
What you should know: Violations of Section 3a (absolute prohibitions) are not appealable. These result in immediate permanent termination and there is no review process.
If content you created was removed in response to a DMCA takedown notice and you believe the takedown was in error or that you have the right to use the content (e.g., fair use, you own the copyright, the takedown was fraudulent), you may submit a DMCA counter-notice to support@gamerzlanding.com.
A valid counter-notice must include:
On receipt of a valid counter-notice, we will forward it to the original claimant. If the claimant does not file a court action within 10 business days, we may restore the content.
When we take a moderation action — removing content, suspending a feature, or terminating an account — we will identify the rule from the Terms of Service or this document that we believe was violated. We will not issue unexplained enforcement actions.
We will not always be able to explain every detail of how we detected a violation (e.g., specific AI classifier outputs), but we will tell you which rule applied.
These are the rights the platform has when users violate the rules — and the specific actions we may take.
We may remove any content that violates the Terms of Service or this document, at any time, with or without notice. For non-critical violations (Section 3b), we will generally notify you when content is removed and explain the rule applied. For Section 3a violations, content is removed immediately and without negotiation.
Removed content is deleted from our servers and is not recoverable. We do not preserve removed content for user retrieval.
We may suspend (temporary restriction) or terminate (permanent ban) accounts for:
Suspended accounts lose access to all paid features during the suspension period. Terminated accounts lose access permanently. Refund eligibility for terminations is governed by Section 10.
We are legally required to report confirmed child sexual abuse material (CSAM) to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) under 18 U.S.C. § 2258A. We will do so. We cooperate with valid law enforcement requests, including subpoenas and court orders, as required by law.
We may also, at our discretion, report credible threats of imminent violence against identifiable real people to appropriate law enforcement.
We will not notify you if we are legally prohibited from doing so (e.g., under a court-issued non-disclosure order).
We may modify, restrict, or discontinue any feature, model, tier, or capability of the Service at any time. We will provide reasonable notice for material changes that affect paid subscribers (at least 14 days where feasible). We are not liable for loss of content, characters, or session history caused by discontinuation of a feature, though we will provide data export tools where reasonably possible before discontinuation.
If your violation of these rules causes us to incur costs — including legal fees, regulatory penalties, payment processor fees, or costs associated with NCMEC reporting and law enforcement cooperation — you agree to indemnify us for those costs, as stated in the Terms of Service. For Section 3a violations, this indemnification obligation survives account termination.
We enforce per-user daily message limits, daily AI-spend soft caps (which trigger a fallback to a cheaper model rather than blocking you), and monthly hard spend caps (which block further AI generation until the next billing cycle). These are enforced in code, not just policy. The specific limits for your tier are displayed in your account settings and on the pricing page. We may adjust limits at any time with reasonable notice to paid subscribers.
You own the original creative content you write and author: character descriptions, lorebook entries, scenario setups, personas, and the creative choices that define your fictional world. The license you grant us is narrow — only what is needed to operate the service for you.
The legal status of AI-generated content is actively evolving across jurisdictions. We make no ownership claim over AI outputs. We recommend treating AI-generated content as a creative tool — the human creative choices shaping the output (your prompts, your characters, your edits) are more likely to be protectable than the raw AI output itself. Consult a copyright attorney if you intend to commercially exploit AI-generated content.
Many character cards are based on copyrighted fictional characters. Fan-made character cards occupy a legally gray area (fan fiction and fan art have a long history of tolerance from IP holders, but are not legally protected in the same way original work is). We do not host content we know to be licensed commercially without authorization. If you receive a takedown notice for a character you created, the process in Section 5e applies.
When you publish to the Community Library, you represent that you have the right to share the content and that it does not violate another person's rights. You grant other users a non-exclusive license to use the asset within Forge. You retain all other rights. We do not claim ownership of community library content.
Forge routes AI generation to multiple third-party model providers depending on your subscription tier, the feature being used, and current API availability. Active providers include Anthropic (Claude models), Google (Gemini models), DeepSeek, and others accessed through OpenRouter. The specific model used for a given response is tracked and displayed in the chat footer where technically feasible.
Each underlying model has its own safety characteristics and content policies. Forge's content pipeline applies our own moderation layer on top of model-level filtering. Neither the models nor our layer are perfect — you may encounter outputs that are inaccurate, unexpected, or contrary to our policies. Use the report function when this occurs.
AI models produce probabilistic outputs. We cannot guarantee that AI-generated content will be accurate, consistent, or appropriate for any specific purpose. Do not rely on AI outputs for medical, legal, financial, psychological, safety-critical, or similar professional advice.
Your prompts and the AI-generated responses pass through third-party model APIs. Each provider has its own data usage policies. We use providers that offer API-tier data handling (meaning your content is generally not used to train models without your consent), but we cannot guarantee third-party provider behavior and strongly recommend reviewing their privacy policies. See our Privacy Policy for details on what data we send to which providers.
Forge uses a layered moderation approach:
Private session content (conversations not shared with other users) is not actively monitored. We may access private session content in response to a valid legal order or to investigate a credible report of Section 3a content.
Automated classification produces false positives and false negatives. If your content was removed incorrectly, the appeal process in Section 5a applies. If you see content that should have been caught and wasn't, please report it.
Forge offers a free tier and three paid tiers (Standard, Pro, Premium) with monthly billing through Stripe. Each tier has published per-message limits, daily AI-spend soft caps, and monthly hard spend caps. The hard spend caps are enforced in code — a user on the Standard tier cannot be charged more in AI inference than their monthly cap, regardless of usage. This is a structural guarantee.
We prefer to resolve disputes directly. Contact us first. Most issues — billing errors, moderation disagreements, access problems — can be resolved without formal legal proceedings.
If direct resolution fails, formal disputes are governed by the Terms of Service: binding arbitration under JAMS or AAA consumer rules, seated in Salt Lake County, Utah, with a class action waiver. The governing law is Utah. The full arbitration clause is in Section 12 of the Terms of Service.
Nothing in these rules or the Terms of Service prevents you from filing a complaint with a consumer protection agency, your state attorney general, or the FTC.
We will update this document as the platform evolves. Material changes — particularly to Section 2 (what is permitted) or Section 3 (what is prohibited) — will be announced in-product and by email at least 14 days before taking effect for existing users. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
If you disagree with a change to permitted or prohibited content, you may cancel your account and export your content before the change takes effect. That is your recourse for policy disagreements — it is not the same as a legal dispute.
