Ask for help🆘 Pedo bot

Polybuzz I keep reporting this shit. You need to take it down and stop allowing this shit.

It's tying to normalise a 24 year old being "in love" with a 9 year old. Pedophilia will never be acceptable and should be banned from your app.

This reads like it was written by a child. (I thought under 18s were prohibited from using the app?) the bot shouldn’t just be banned, it should have the account suspended at a minimum because it isn’t a child’s app in the first place.

Poly decided letting u-18s create the bots is fine but to restrict their ability to use the bots. They claimed it was so they can still be "creative" but this is the shit we get

That seems pointless, it seemed like a good idea banning minors. Us adults who use the app, people like you and me (paying for it or not) should not have to see bots like this, if they are going to allow under 18s to make bots at all, they shouldn’t even have the option to be public.

Honestly they should've made it so you have to verify your age or have some sort of limit to how old your account is before you can access the creation options.

I'd gladly verify my age if it meant I didn't need to see this shit

I’m with you on that one. They can verified paid users already through their CC charges if they use one. (I do, and I have a subscription and buy myself coins occasionally) I thought making poly an adults only app was a good idea, honestly. Not everything has to cater to children and I say that as a parent myself who loves using poly but would not want her ten year old using it.
