I have been banned on Badoo due to the generalized block and report feature I believe.
some people have chosen to block me due to my unwillingness to either meet them and= or share my personal phone number, why would this block be grouped with a report as a strike on my account? I am not sure if this is the reason but the block button shouldn't be so general if someone chooses not to engage with me or vice-versa.
I am really perplexed by this and this is the only conclusion I can think of. I have shared my personal number recently and I had felt disrespected due to my orientation and or uncomfortable and unsafe after having chatted with some people and had decided to end our engagement off the platform and off of my personal number
and i believe they may have felt i should be submissive to their advances, and once I return to the platform, I noticed I couldn't see our previous messages or their profile. This has happened 2x recently and these interactions should not be applied to my behavior on your platform and labeled as a "violation" Again, I have never had a problem in over 10 years until I recently began having more engagements and poor experiences due to my orientation.
My suspicions about discrimination about me being trans seems to be valid with this research I found online and I would hope you will take this following information consideration, as I have never even received a warning ever and am blocked even from creating another account. How is this fair?
The Badoo Block & Report feature is designed to help protect users from abusive or disrespectful behavior on the app. It allows users to report any behavior that feels untoward, even if they are not sure that it violates guidelines. When a user is reported, Badoo's support team will review the report and take action based on the app's community guidelines, which can include a warning or banning the reported user from the app. The feature is meant to empower users to take action when they feel uncomfortable or unsafe. However, there have been some complaints about Badoo, including allegations of discrimination against the LGBT community
. It's important to note that the effectiveness and fairness of the Block & Report feature may vary depending on individual experiences
...I feel I have absolutely fallen victim to the generalized effectiveness of the block feature due to my orientation, this is the only logical conclusion
I am hoping you will take these allegations seriously and have empathy towards the trans community and the difficulty of navigating the dating world and how some rejected advances will want someone to either block us or create an elaborate lie out of spite and revenge. This is not fair and I am requesting advocacy to have my ban lifted and for badoo to update their policies in consideration of the times we live and the nature of the generalized block report button and the complexity and psychology of a transgender person who is looking for a relationship but having to continuously dodge being oversexualized by men and how men react when they are denied using us a toys that feel entitled to use, disrespect and have banned due to their narcissistic egos. These are the real life challenges and I am upset that I am in this unfortunate situation
I have never once disrespected anyone or violated any terms. All interactions I have had on the platform have been not been initiated by myself and I have always clearly stated that I am trans in my title, my bio and my pronouns. I also make certain upon replying, that the party is well aware of my being transgender
Thank you for your time and help with this matter in advance
Desired outcome: Requesting Badoo to lift my ban,consider revenge reporting, ensure fairness in 'block & report usage. Advocate for unbiased inquiries before bans, with no warning or justified reason.Argue photo verification is unfair to trans individuals
This company does not investigate, they are less than fair, honest, forthcoming or logical about how they decide to ban accounts. Badoo definately appear to be make up fairy-tale rules that are not listed on their site as a biased excuse to ban accounts. In 2023, this is bad business practice. Be careful before you decide to support this platform.
