This is advertised as a fun social app that is generally family friendly, but as soon as you open it you will be met with public posts of people asking for adult images, and sexting requests. My personal messages are flooded so quickly with chats from men I’ve never interacted with asking for me to participate in inappropriate activities, so much so I thought the app was flooded with NSFW bots, but when I asked other users about it, I was told that it’s real people dming anyone they could. I thought there was no moderation at all with how dishoveled it looked but it turns out there is a bit of moderation… because I got banned. If you do get banned they won’t do what most apps do where they tell you what you did that broke the rules. For context: I did not swear, I did not engage in any inappropriate discussions with anyone, I did not participate in any hate speech. I reached out to the email given in the more tab to see what it was I’ve done that may have gotten my account suspended, and twiq got back to me a few hours later, providing me a message that I sent that said: “I love my baby (I call my dog my baby lol) but when she drinks water out of her bowl she always runs over to me and gets her drool all over my pants, cut it out.” and they simply told me “you cannot say that”. I’m puzzled, I reach out again to ask how it broke any guidelines considering the message was quite wholesome and non threatening. I also asked if they had a list of their rules, an FAQ or anything that I could see for myself. There hasn’t been a reply yet, but they did change my ban from a week long one to a two year one so, yeah there’s that 😭 I had only been using the app for a few days so it’s not like I have an emotional attachment to it where I feel I need to use it, but it does feel sucky to be treated poorly and not have any explanation to any of my questions, especially considering I was pretty polite and patient and can’t think of anything I’ve done to warrant this… and maybe I’m a little bit befuddled too because how did me talking about my dog get me in trouble but a bunch of men talking sexually publicly and privately on the app get to remain and keep behaving in a way that should be against the rules? 😭
