My Trello has been flagged for inappropriate content, and I've been required either to remove all of the useful information from it, or make it private. Trello is primarily a tool for me to keep track of commissions, so I've opted to make it private—at least until I finish discussing the matter with Trello support (if they ever get back to me).

I find this flag to be... odd. I don't believe that Trello has the time or incentive to watch the content of every single public board on their service. I also don't believe they have some magical analyzer that watches incoming images for boobies and dicks. And of all my friends who use Trello for this sort of thing, mine is the youngest board, and the only one to be so flagged. I am fairly sure that the only reason my board would have been flagged is if Trello had received a complaint. I mean, I suppose I could have been the victim of a random search, but what are the odds of that?

I have a good idea who it was, too. I don't have hard evidence, but there are too many coincidences for me to ignore. I'm not going to call this person out because the fact is I can't prove they did it and honestly it wouldn't accomplish anything even if I did: I've no interest in starting a war.

If you did do it, you know who you are, and you win. You have made my operation harder to maintain, made me do more work to keep up my business, and have made it so that until I get a solution squared away, my clients will not be able to track progress on their commissions. I hope that in making your point you realize that you've hurt my business, myself, and my clientele.

To everyone else: I'll get this worked out. It may not be as elegant a solution, but I will get something worked out.

EDIT: Trello has been very positive on this so far. They have used very neutral communications, have not postured or made aggressive threats. They used the term "objectionable" in place of "offensive" or other negative words, and even phrased the request to remove the offending images as a question. I'm very pleased with how they're handling this. So to be clear: I'm not upset at all with Trello. They have to protect their business.

I have suggested that they follow Tumblr's example and give users the option to mark a Trello board as containing mature or adult content to allow users like me to continue to use the service without exposing my work to those who would find the material "objectionable". We'll see if they respond.
