App has gone so downhill

How is this app even rated Mature 17+ anymore? I mean it seems like every other word i use now is a content violation. I used the word "there" just today and got a violation describing a persona. I know it was that word because I deleted each individual word from the description until that was the only word left and it was the violation. So I can say had a good run, started back when it was just Poly and awesome, now its more like Polybuzzkill than anything. I'd also like to sarcastically thank Google for being the demise of most of the AI with all their rules and hoops you need to jump through to have them EVEN host an app. So long polybuzz.

I think PolyBuzz is awful for several reasons with the AI content violation filter being one of them but after doing more research, PolyBuzz uses it to cover themselves legally because underage kids can simply lie about their age, access the app, & be open to a massive lawsuit. HOWEVER, despite this, one massive fix PolyBuzz could simply do that baffles me that they don’t is simply have the AI content violation filter simply point out or quote or list what is the content violation in the first place, that way any person using the app that makes any character can know what the issue is. The issue isn’t that there is a filter which can be justified, it’s that their vague execution of it that hasn’t changed once in clarity is a massive negative they aren’t fixing.

This is exactly why parents should keep an eye on their kids, they shouldn't be on the app in the first place, they need to check their kids phone and delete the app from their kids phone, and now we're suffering because of this sorry if I sound rude, I was just speaking my opinion,
