Community guidelines

Last updated 23 October 2026

Vesica works when people feel safe turning up. These are the few rules that make that possible.

Be real

• Use your real first name and a photo of yourself. Only people in your plan or event chat, and a host whose plan you ask to join, see your photo; everyone else sees your avatar, unless you choose to show your photo to everyone.
• You must be 18 or older. If someone looks younger than 18, report them and choose “Under 18”.

Be kind

• No harassment, bullying, threats or hate, including about someone’s race, religion, gender, sexuality, disability or age.
• If someone isn’t interested in chatting, let it go.

Keep it friendship

• Vesica isn’t for dating or hook-ups. No flirting in group chats, no unwanted advances, no sexual content.

Keep it honest

• No scams, spam, selling or promotion.
• Host plans you actually intend to go to. If you can’t make it, cancel so others know.

Keep it safe

• Meet in public places.
• Plan photos: show the activity or the vibe, not your exact meeting spot. No photos of people without their consent, and nothing that breaks these guidelines.
• Don’t share other people’s personal details.
• Nothing illegal, and no pressuring anyone into anything.

If something’s wrong

Tap a person’s name in any chat to block or report them. To report a plan, open it and tap ⋯ → Report plan; you can block the host at the same time. Blocking hides someone from you straight away and also takes you out of plans they host, whether you’re going, asking or on the waitlist. They aren’t told why. We review every report, and accounts that break these rules can be removed. In an emergency, call 000.
