Reporting Users & Content

Tavrn is a community, and like any community, it depends on people speaking up when something’s wrong. Here’s how the reporting system works.

​
What You Can Report

You can report individual messages, in DMs or room channels, as well as user profiles for content that violates Tavrn’s Community Standards.

​
Report Categories

When you submit a report, you’ll choose a category that best describes the violation:

🚨 Harassment

Targeted, persistent, or threatening behavior directed at a specific person.

📢 Spam

Unsolicited messages, repeated content, or automated junk flooding chats.

🔞 Inappropriate Content

Content that’s graphic, explicit, or otherwise not appropriate for the platform.

⚠️ Threats

Direct or implied threats of violence or harm.

🚫 Hate Speech

Content targeting people based on identity, race, religion, gender, sexuality, etc.

❓ Other

Something that doesn’t fit a specific category but still violates the standards.

​

​
How to Report a User

  1. Open their profile (click their avatar or name)
  2. Click ⋯ more options
  3. Select Report User
  4. Choose a category and add context
  5. Submit

​
What Happens After You Report

  1. Pending, Your report enters the queue for review
  2. Investigating, The moderation team is actively reviewing the report
  3. Resolved, Action was taken (the exact action isn’t shared with reporters for privacy reasons)
  4. Dismissed, The report was reviewed and no violation was found
You won’t always receive detailed feedback on what action was taken. This isn’t because your report doesn’t matter, it’s to protect the privacy of all parties involved in the review process.

​
Block + Report

The most powerful combination when dealing with someone causing you harm: report them so Tavrn can take action, then block them so you don’t see their activity in the meantime. Blocking is immediate, it takes effect the moment you do it. Reports go through a review process that takes time. Use both.
Learn about blocking in Blocking Someone.

​
Reporting in Good Faith

The report system works because people use it responsibly. A few things to keep in mind:
  • Don’t weaponize reports, Filing a report on someone because you had an argument, not because of a genuine violation, undermines the system for everyone
  • Be specific, Vague reports are harder to act on. The more context you provide, the more useful your report is
  • You can report multiple messages, If a pattern of behavior spans multiple messages, you can note the additional message IDs when filing the report

​
Room-Level Moderation

Reports go to Tavrn’s central moderation team. But room owners and admins also have their own moderation tools, they can kick, ban, and delete messages independently of the formal report system. If someone is violating a specific room’s rules (but not necessarily Tavrn’s platform-wide standards), the room moderators are the right people to contact first.

​
Frequently Asked Questions

No. Reports are anonymous from the perspective of the person being reported.
The report may have been reviewed and dismissed if no clear violation was found. If you believe the situation is serious and wasn’t handled appropriately, you can reach out to Tavrn support directly with additional context.
Once submitted, reports can’t be retracted by users, they’ll be reviewed by the team. If it was submitted in error, the reviewer will simply dismiss it.
Directly reporting a room as a whole isn’t currently a distinct feature, report the specific messages or the owner/admin behavior using the message or user report flows.
