School's out for Rec Room and it will be dearly missed ♥️- if you're looking for a new home, come and check out StageTime on Meta Quest and PICO. #RecRoom#SocialVR
Although we support age verification I’m actually opposed to the idea of it. I don’t think it’s wise or safe to ask people to send their id to lots of different services who will have different processing and data retention policies.
How can you be sure they stick to what they say? How many times have there been data breaches and leaks across different providers? After age verification there’s no way to ensure that the person who verified is the same person using the headset.
After checking out every possible provider we went with Yoti as they seemed to be the most trustworthy and privacy focused.
It’s only required on our platform if you want to create and join rooms for verified adults.
We never see or store any information, the verification is handled by Yoti and all our backend receives is a bool to confirm if you passed the age check.
🛸 MISSION: RESCUE HORIZON REFUGEES 🛸
THE ULTIMATE VR FLASH MOB & EXODUS
The sun is setting on the Horizon but rising on the Stage. Meta is pulling the plug on Quest VR, leaving thousands of creators and players stranded. It’s time for StageTime to suit up, move in, and show them there’s a better home waiting.
📅OPERATION DETAILS
- DATE: Sunday, 22 March
- TIME: 7.45 PM UK
- STARTING POINT: The "Meet the Team" Event (StageTime)
📋 THE MISSION BRIEFING
1. ASSEMBLE: Gather at StageTime for the pre-drop briefing.
2. THE RAID: We’ll deploy as a synchronised flash mob into Meta Horizon Worlds.
3. THE RESCUE: Spread the word, bring the energy, and guide the "refugees" to our community.
4. CLASSIFIED: Full tactical details and the "Drop Location" will be revealed LIVE during the event.
"No Avatar Left Behind. We are the Alternative."

Cool! Anime style only? And I have to go back to the website each time to change my avatar? That's great if that works for you! But I can assure you many casual/less technical users appreciate our genuine low friction/ease of use platform :)
As I said, for the right users we're a much better alternative.
I'm sure it's great!
Not quite how you describe it as polished.
- Dress codes you need to manually enforce?
- 18+ verification that requires a monthly subscription?
- How many layers of menus/UI do you have to go through to find an instance? What's the experience like as a new user?
We've hosted many events on VRChat over several years, we're very familiar with how much the UX sucks.
From clicking on StageTime to being in a room with other people takes <15 seconds - and that's on a standalone headset.
You can create and customise your identity directly in app Sims character creator style - far more accessible and personal.
Sure both can coexist. But for the right people, StageTime is much better :)
To the VR communities displaced by the Horizon Worlds news: StageTime is here.
StageTime is actively looking for top Horizon creators and communities to migrate over. We’re offering direct dev support to get your events and spaces set up fast.
