They need to fix everything. I can barely report anything on the site without being banned for it. The admin come around later and fix it and apology, but because that's happened so many times, safety's first response is permanent ban which means I have to use an alt to contact them and get them to fix it. Despite the fact that they told me several times all the suspensions and warnings would be removed, they aren't. I reported something for being a duplicate a couple weeks ago (it was there was another copy on the front page of the sub, and it was one of their report reasons) and came back an hour later to both a permanent ban notice for 'report abuse' for that, and also the fact that my account wasn't actually banned because someone had come through and unbanned me. The site is bordering on being beyond repair at this point.
Oof that reminds me of youtube and their nightmare of a copyright claim system
It's really quite bad. This time around the system has gone through banned the throwaway I used last time, so now I have to make yet another throwaway to get a message through to them. On top of that, they've really dropped the ball in Modsupport. Used to get response within a day, maybe 2 at the most. I've been weeks without a clear reply there lately. Other than 'oh we see you were unbanned that time, so no worries bye' even though I'd put several questions to them about why they hadn't cleared the suspensions and bans from my account history and a few other mod related questions.
Ouch I didn't know they got that bad but I can definitely believe it particularly with reddit firing people recently (I heard 5% but I might be very wrong)
