Thoughts of the Rada! So here's the story. My friend Liu sells her artwork on Inkbunny as well as Furaffinity. Unfortunately, she's been getting stalked by a particularly ravenous watcher, someone that has been harassing her, asking for real life pictures of her and whatnot. Liu of course was not obliged to share such imagery, and told him so. So angry stalker guy decides to go to the admins of inkbunny and report her for being 'underage'. First off, this is a lie. Liu while I'm not going to share her age, is old enough to view and post adult artwork.
What's disappointing is the action inkbunny decided to take in regards to the situation. They suspended her account. And what do they repeatedly bring up to every support ticket asking for a repeal? Her skype account info. What the hell business do they have looking at her information on another platform? Oh, and you know the best part? They won't accept a real ID. A photo of her with her identification card isn't enough but her skype account is. I've had to deal with a lost account once before, when Starcraft 2 was still somewhat new. I had lost my info on my Blizzard account, and you know a method they asked for to prove myself? Photograph with me and my ID. If it's good enough for a company like Blizzard freakin' Entertainment, then what the actual HELL, Inkbunny?
Then there's the support crew themselves. Sassy Mo'fos. Seriously. Sarcasm in the trouble tickets and complete dismissal of any logic. So the troll wins. The scummy, maligned little man wins. Liu lost her account, a suspension that's scheduled to last 2 years. TWO YEARS! This is a part of her income we're talking about!
So yeah. I honestly don't have much of a point behind this journal. People will continue to use Inkbunny and that's fine. I'm just really upset with their support staff. Personally, I'll be avoiding that site. I guess I just felt like ranting about it. Maybe get some people to nod their heads and say "Yep, that's some bullshit" with me. Thanks for reading nonetheless.

I would try to contact some lawyer (maybe Saul Goodman :P) or just share the skype information.
Afterwards you can still remove them the staff of inkbunny from you contacts. When you consider sharing skype information, maybe you should also consider to make an account just for this "verification process" and delete it afterwards (or use as spam account!).
If this all isn't your style of doing things, try to team up with some others and think of something else.
Another idea popped into my mind while typing that above: They are a website which offers the possibility to trade with actual money and goods. So they should have a imprint. There should be a phone number which you can call them with. Try to talk to them and state the facts!
Whatever you decide on doing, I wish you the best!
I'm not sure I understand your statement. I mean I understand it but I don't see how it correlates to the issue that this journal presents.
