What do Vanguard moderators do?

The Vanguard is VERGR's moderation team. They review reports from the community, act on flagged streams, posts, and profiles, resolve disputes, and can mute or ban rule-breakers. What they can do grows with rank: new Recruits only shadow and learn, full Vanguards act on reports directly.

VERGR does not outsource moderation to a faceless department. The Vanguard is a ranked collective of trusted members who keep the platform fair, and they are paid for it from the platform's own revenue.

The day-to-day work

• Reviewing the moderation queue: reports from users about content or behaviour, with the power to approve or reject each one.
• Watching live: moderators can act on a stream while it is running, so a problem broadcast does not stay up until someone gets round to it.
• Enforcement: muting users, and at senior ranks issuing temporary or permanent bans.
• Escalation: hard cases move up the chain, from Senior Vanguard to Commander to Overseer, with the founder as the final layer.

What rank changes

A new Recruit shadows experienced moderators in the queue but cannot take live actions yet. Promotion to full Vanguard unlocks real decisions: approving or rejecting reports, acting on flagged content, and mutes of up to 24 hours. Higher ranks add stronger enforcement powers and a bigger share of the pay pool.
