My and my friends have been on this site for YEEARS. Seen all the various sites layout changes. But the one change that's really hassled my friends and I is the reporting system. Whether its auto and manual.
We use to be able to harmlessly joke with friends, inside jokes, etc. Now ask has gotten so stiff we are use to some of our accounts just disappearing for having harmless fun.
I understand the reasoning, but here is what I would like to see, either have the power to age gate accounts if that's one concern or, take a hint from other social medias and allow us to have more private account options. All the times I've been report have been for "No no words" despite being an adult. Or for example RPS, or in character asks.
"Not the point of ask FM" True but you DO have a greater amount of audience who like to use their imaginations that way. Quite honestly it is also the ONLY reason I am on ask.fm, all thanks to the first account I followed. Otherwise this site doesn't involve me much in ways of interactions.
There needs to be a system in place to help those who just want to have fun. The malicious reporting is an issue, the reporting because we used a word associated to fruit shapes.
I am not saying let us go wild, but have some kind of ways to help of fix this. Quite honestly feels like I am living with strict parents that will kick you out of the house for some bad words.
And maybe trust the adults to properly report questions that are not suitable.
