Weapons Policy

For information about Neptune's regulations for Firearms, please view our Firearms Policy.

Neptune allows content related to weapons, blacksmithing, historical craftsmanship, and cosplay props, provided it follows our safety guidelines. However, we maintain strict regulations on firearms content, as well as content that encourages violence or promotes illegal activities.

General Guidelines

• Firearms are governed under a separate policy (see Neptune’s Firearms Policy for details).
• All content featuring weapons, including firearms and props, must be tagged 18+ using Neptune’s content tagging system.
• Weapons may be shown in posted content and livestreams, but livestreams must follow additional restrictions (see below).
• Prop weapons used for cosplay, film, or entertainment must be clearly labeled as “prop” in the video description.
• Weapons used in craftsmanship, such as blacksmithing, metalworking, or historical recreation, are allowed.
