Something's wrong with the blocking system. Please fix it!
This provides nothing that can be used to troubleshoot with. Issues can't be fixed if they are not known or clearly expressed unless staff had already seen and been working on it.
Lately, half of human-user-generated submissions fail the anti robot check or are marked as spam multiple times before being submitted with no issue and zero changes. Frustrating for those of us creating new content, and easy enough for determined spammers.
Yeah m8, sometimes i had problems blocking people from my specific stories. I already listed their usernames on their blocked users list, but their casting suggestions are not even removed. And after a few hours, they got removed. And also had this issue of my blocked users list on the account settings. Whenever i changed my profile pic, all of the users that i've blocked are unblocked automatically, it's pretty tiring to block them again one by one. Moreover, i kinda had trouble remembering each usernames since i had some memory issues. Makes me hesitant to even change my profile pic rn.

So captcha/antispam is false flagging and inconsistent. Difficult to troubleshoot but a place to start - I've heard the devs are trying to work on this among other issues but unfortunately I can't say how fast it is or how often they're able to check in. Either way I'll leave a note elsewhere and hope it is seem and worked on.

That is a nasty bug, and I'm definitely pointing someone at this thread to have a look. Right now I'd try to save the page/copy a list of the names so you can put them back in if required.

I might double post if there's a request for specifics that can help out.
