Protecting Garry's Mod Communities. Together.
A comprehensive, evidence-based safety database to identify and act against serious violations, ensuring a safer environment for all players.
What is GmodProtect?
A community safety initiative for Garry’s Mod. We maintain an evidence-based database and an open-source addon so servers can act on severe violations with transparency and due process.
Mission
Make GMod servers safer by sharing vetted, evidence-backed case files across the network.
How it works
Reports are pre-screened, human-reviewed, published as public case files, and consumed via API by partner servers.
Principles
Child safety first, strict evidence standards, transparency, GDPR compliance, and a public appeals process.
Our Four Pillars of Protection 🛡️
We focus on the most severe threats to community health and safety.
Child Sexual Exploitation / CSAM
Direct action on CSAM possession/distribution and explicit sexual solicitation of minors.
Grooming & Minor Endangerment
Patterns of grooming, coercion, boundary violations, attempts to move minors to private channels, and exposure to sexualized or age-inappropriate content.
Cheating / Exploiting
Identifying users who disrupt gameplay through technical cheats and exploits.
Severe Harassment
Addressing doxxing, real-world threats, and coordinated harassment campaigns.
Our Commitment to the Community
What We Stand For
We exist to make Garry's Mod servers safer. We verify evidence, publish clear case files, and take responsibility for every decision we make.
Built for the community, not for profit
GmodProtect is volunteer-run and free to use. Server owners will never be charged for database access or API integration.
Transparent & Accountable Process
Report Submission
Server staff submit detailed, evidence-backed reports through our secure system.
Professional Review
Trained moderators review all evidence to ensure accuracy and fairness.
Public Case File
Approved cases are published with transparency, protecting privacy where necessary.
API Integration
Partner servers automatically receive updates and can configure actions using our 100% open-source addon (available on GitHub).
Appeal & Correction
A clear, public process is available for users to appeal decisions, ensuring accountability and a path for correction.
