Safety and reporting
Keeping the crew safe
How to report something, how fast we act, how to appeal, and where to get help.
Last updated: 19 Oct 2026
How We Keep It Safe
- Forum posts, player finds and reader reviews are checked by a person before they are published.
- The Launch Room blocks links, slurs and common scam phrases automatically, and anyone can report a message.
- Uploaded screenshots have location and other hidden photo data removed.
- There are no private messages, so nobody can contact you privately through the site.
- You must be 16 or over to post. Accounts that break the rules can be muted, suspended or banned.
- Leonida Intel never offers a GTA VI beta, early access, keys or downloads, and never asks for your password or payment in chat.
The full rules are in our Community Guidelines and Terms of Use.
How To Report
Launch Room chat
Press the report button on the message. After three reports from different people it hides straight away until a moderator checks it.
Forum posts and replies
Use the report button on the post.
Player finds, reviews, profiles and leaderboard nicknames
Use the form below with the link to the page, or email us.
Our Discord server
Use Discord's own report tools and tell a moderator, or use the form below.
Something pretending to be us
Fake Leonida Intel accounts, sites, giveaways or early-access offers: use the form below. We never sell game access or ask for passwords.
You do not need an account to report. You can also email legal@leonida-intel.com. Tell us the link and what is wrong. Please do not send us copies of illegal images; just send the link.
What Happens Next
Child sexual abuse, terrorism, threats to someone's life, or intimate images shared without consent
Hidden or removed as soon as we see it, within 24 hours at most, and reported to the authorities.
Other illegal content, such as hate, harassment, fraud and scams
Reviewed within 24 hours.
Breaks of our community rules
Reviewed within 3 days, faster during launch week.
Appeals and complaints
A reply within 7 days.
If something breaks the law or our rules, we remove it or hide it and may warn, suspend or ban the account. We report child sexual abuse material to the National Crime Agency and the Internet Watch Foundation, and threats to life to the police. If you gave us contact details, we will tell you what we decided.
Appeals And Complaints
You can complain to us if:
- we removed or hid your content, or restricted or closed your account, and you think we got it wrong;
- you reported something and we did not act, or acted too slowly;
- the report tools are not working; or
- you think we are not meeting our duties under the UK Online Safety Act 2023, or have used our rules in a way that limits free expression or privacy unfairly.
Use the form below and choose Community report, starting your message with "Appeal" or "Complaint", or email legal@leonida-intel.com. Where possible someone who was not involved in the original decision will look at it. We aim to reply within 7 days. If we got it wrong, we restore your content or account and tell you.
Ofcom is the UK regulator for online safety. It does not handle individual complaints about content, but you can tell Ofcom if you think we are not meeting our duties at ofcom.org.uk.
For EU Users
Under the EU Digital Services Act you can notify us of illegal content using the form below. Tell us the exact link, why you believe it is illegal, and your name and email. Child sexual abuse material can also be reported anonymously to the Internet Watch Foundation. We confirm receipt, decide promptly and fairly, and tell you the result. If we restrict your content or account, we give you a statement of reasons and you can appeal as described above, use a certified out-of-court dispute settlement body, or go to court. Our single point of contact for users and authorities is legal@leonida-intel.com, in English.
Age And Parents
GTA VI is rated PEGI 18 and ESRB Mature 17+. You must be 16 or over to create an account or post. If you are a parent or carer and think a child under 16 has an account, email legal@leonida-intel.com and we will close it and delete what was posted.
