Okay, so I was going to address this before but I wanted to wait it out and see if this issue will happen again and it did. I didn’t make this thread to be rude or anything just wanted to know if others experienced the same problem.
So, I’ve made threads regarding things I want to appear on the art catalog such as more male Muslim clothing as there’s literally none and more South Asian clothes – both of these threads were flagged and despite asking the mod why it’s been flagged, I never got any answers and it’s been months since then. Okay whatever - I had the impression they maybe islamophobic tbh. Now a few days ago I made a thread of hoping they release Male Victorian Blouses for any characters set in the Victorian era or any older time period to wear but guess what ?? Yeah, I’VE BEEN FLAGGED. I even asked why this happened and still no response?? Like, do you have something against me or something?? I was sure we’re allowed to ask them to release certain things on the portal or the catalog yet I get flagged even though I never seemed to have done anything wrong?
I’m so confused.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar? The mods must honestly hate me ಠ_ಠ
It has happened to me due to ‘violation of feature guidelines’ which seems to be the issue here too, and I had also asked the responsible moderator on what I have to do for them to reopen it, however I still don’t understand what changes must be made to reopen the topic, and the topic got archived, so I just ignored the whole thing.
Hey!
So unfortunately, there are a lot of people who’s hobby are to flag posts. Exactly like spamming.
And what can you do? NOTHING!
Because these things are anonym and there is no chance to know who flagged it.
I had over 8 posts flagged with suggestions and they DID follow all the guidelines. Sydney answered and said she will take a look, but didn’t. She just deleted them like nothing happened.
SO the best you can do is just don’t make suggestions because people who won’t agree with them or are just bored will flag it in the next 24 hours.
It bas been closed because their might have been something in your title, or it could be a duplicate thread. Meaning that there was once another thread that had the same request as your thread so that could be another one.
Example:
So you have to search for the request that you want to make a thread about in the search button before you post it. To check if another thread has made the same request or not.
Hey your not alone on this I believe I had a friend that’s done this if not I did it and they flagged it . It is annoying .
To be honest I’ve stopped making topics and posting stuff as I don’t want to be flagged and I feel almost 80% of the time I end up getting flagged . Have you tried messaging @/Sydney_H about why you got flagged ? It dose take her about a week or 2 to respond .
It’s annoying to deal with because it happens out of nowhere and makes me not want to suggest things that episode could add - not that they’ll listen anyway - but just since they gave us a chance to I thought why not but I always get flagged for making certain topics
Ahh I totally forgot about how random people can flag topics too I was thinking it could be the moderator but it’s crazy how they don’t check the reason why the person may have flagged it I even checked whether I may have said or done something wrong and I don’t seem to have done anything like that
WHAT??? So many as well
She said the exact same when one of my threads were flagged but she also didn’t do anything either but this time she didn’t even respond
Yeah some of the reasons is what @/lanafrazer_episode says. Others than that im sorry to have to say that the mods can be unfair. Like people get flag because they make thread saying that they taking a break. When ask the mods why is it flag? The mods says you cannot say that you leave the community. Like what? Take a break and leave is not same thing. That why i do not like to be active here anymore. I just read people posting in forum but i do not always post.
I’ve been trying to use this forum for a while now, and I can’t seem to get my threads to stay up. Every time I make a new post, it gets flagged and taken down within a few hours. I’m not sure why this is happening, but it’s really frustrating.
