### 5/5 — Mascot is shutting down.

*2023-10-29*

Mascot, we’ve loved your app for however long it’s been up. You created the separated oc bio system where we can individually use each oc, the partner finder, amazing server designs and easy app to get into. People have put SO MUCH work into their OCs and bios, and I, being one if those who’ve put my heart and soul into the RPs and OCs from this app, was heartbroken to see the “Mascot is shutting down” message. We’re trying to do GoFundMe’s, we’re signing a petition, and we’re sharing all of this so we can keep your app running. It brought so many people together, and we only have a couple of days to talk to each other before it closes forever? Give us longer! I know money comes into the equation, but this app (in my eyes) is perfection with the way everything works. People will be losing all of their hard work in this app, and universes where OCs come to meet each other will be gone. Just take this into consideration, Mascot. We love you, and we don’t want to leave your app.

### 2/5 — mascot ..?

*2023-09-04*

I do not have hate towards this app it’s good and all but there be pedos , young people on here , racist people spamming about black people and me im black myself . their is too much ads! there are even nasty ones . in gcs people be cussing and arguing about stupid stuff and other stuff like that . mascot do better bc there be pedos on this app trying to get with older or younger people!’ there was this one girl in my dms trying to get with me and she kept lying and changing her age , and trying to get with me and she was sending nudes to a 8 year old on here! i would say probably no ads and also y’all keep updating it and it’s really annoying about the update and keep having to leave the app over and over again and trying to get it back . but for honestly , this app is really good , you can chat with people and make new friends! even gcs and ( argue with ppl teehee 😋 ) . i really recommend this app if u feel lonely or need somebody to talk to or also js here to talk and feel free! i really give this app a 3 or a 4. and i think the dm page is a little too muchhhh … the people dming u saying weird stuff that u don’t be liking i really recommend u to have like a “ delete dm “ when people dm u , n u can either delete it or keep it and rp or talk with the person. this is my opinion btw no hate on this app. and i think u should put it to like 13+ or so.

### 5/5 — Don’t know how to fix it

*2023-08-24*

Hey, so there’s been a problem that’s been happening, can’t tell if it’s with the app or the phone, but I’m hoping i can get help on it. So, I deleted the app and reinstalled it after a month or so, and then it keeps saying “ A server with the specified Hostname could not be found. “ and I can’t log in at all, and can’t get back into my account, I tried so many times. But overall, it is a very fun game and good to play when bored, you can join so many GC’s, write your own little story, and all that, especially the best place to make friends, and of course, Roleplay. Thanks for this wonderful app, and hopefully I can get back into my account soon bc I miss talking to my friends in here 🥲.

### 1/5 — The bugs, can’t log in.

*2023-08-23*

This app is going down hill it isn’t working like it supposed to. It had broke down at 6:15pm and it’s still not working all the bugs is ridiculous. I thought of deleting the app then redownloading it, and now I can’t even log back into my account. It’s been down for a long time and there is no update so I don’t know what y’all are doing but this bug needs to be fixed. There is no reason an app should be broken down without an update. Me and many other people couldn’t get to our DMs. Now we are worried that everything we’ve worked hard for is going to be gone by the time this matter is fixed. If there is a bug or even if it’s being hacked this matter needs to be delt without a update on what’s going on. We have no idea what’s going on and no one has said anything. I’ve been on this app for almost a year and now I don’t know what’s going on. If it’s an update can you let me or others know because this is honestly a lack of communication.

### 4/5 — Great app, terrible people, some things to fix

*2023-08-23*

First off i’d say i love the way the app is laid out, i absolutely love it. But one problem i have is drama and how mean people are. I never start drama, EVER but somehow i always find my way into it, mainly defending people. People are homophobic, disrespectful, transphobic and racist on this app. 

I also don’t know why i can’t log into my mascot account. It says 
“User with the specified host name cannot be found” And i would love to know why. I’m not a bad person on the app, i usually just chill and relaxed, i mainly only talk to my friends and my boyfriend on the app, so i would love to know why it’s not like; working. I spent a year in the app and i never experienced a problem like this, i put a lot of time and effort into making my characters and the fact that i now can’t log into my account gives me the ick.

### 4/5 — My account was banned?!

*2023-08-23*

Overall, I would like to give this app a 4 star rating because although the negativity I’ve witnessed is heavy, the amount of wonderful roleplayers I’ve been exposed to is amazing. However, today when I went to go on my account it’s saying, “Error; A server with the specified hostname could not be found.” ?? I have never (and will never) tried to delete my account before. Unless I was hacked I can’t think of an explanation because I have never upset someone on that app before. I’ve never even really had a true friendship with anyone off of that app. I tried to log in with different emails and it’s all saying the same thing. I don’t know Mascot, I’m just confused and would really like my account back, please and thank you.

### 2/5 — New mascot(?)

*2023-08-08*

i've been on this app for almost like three years now and not once have I had to deal with so much that I'm dealing with now on this app the plots profile thing y'all decided to make makes it hard for me to click on a persons profile and read what I need to read before I talk to them like their triggers and their name their pronouns whatever they have on there I cannot read it because sometimes their characters are hidden because it automatically hides your characters and because of the plots thing i cant see the character they are on. I don't know where it came from, but it's absolutely disturbing like I don't like it. Most of us don't like it.  you know making profiles is like you can make your own profile with all the plots, we don't need a whole separate thing for plots. also, the other day I got an ad when I tried to make a character and when i click other people's profile I get ads on the bottom?! usually I can text you guys about this stuff like back in the day I used to text you want issues and they would be fixed like within two days but now since you have a lot of people using your app, you can barely reply to anyone else ? your app is going badly. We don't need that plots stuff. I dm page or the tinder knock off was so much better

### 4/5 — Great app, but does new improvements…

*2023-07-26*

I really love the app and how it develops creativity and social skills. However, there are two things I don’t like about this app. One of them is the image restriction. It’s kind of annoying when you have to send 10 messages in order to text a photo to someone and sometimes it doesn’t even work work and I’ll be in all end up texting more than just 10 messages another thing that really annoys me is is wondering if people are online or offline, I wish you were some kind of system where you can see a little green dot indicating that they are online and a red one for when they’re offline. But on favor I hope you enjoy this up and it helped me and my love for Roleplaying and meeting new people. 

^w^

### 5/5 — Loving my current rps, yet I miss the channels

*2023-07-12*

I was in the middle of relaxing without doing much typing on a group chat on the app, and then I noticed how others can’t see the channels and start saying there was a new update. I personally didn’t believe it since I thought my phone would hopefully not update to the current version, but unfortunately it had and now I’m struggling to get a break at replying with less detail on a roleplay group. I know I haven’t used this app for a year, but now I’m just really confused because why take away the channels for the updated people? Is one of my first questions I have when looking at the current situation. And also, the plots make no sense because first, there were finders on there to help roleplayers find specific things. But now without channels even though I can slightly understand, I can barely see what’s currently happening in my own group chats.
