Hi @MakerWorld team!
I wanted to suggest a change to how flagged models or profiles are handled when they violate a guideline. Right now, when a model is found noncompliant—even for something minor like a missing printed photo—it gets fully disabled. The problem is that once this happens, there’s no way to edit the model to bring it into compliance. The uploader loses access to make any fixes, and even basic information like the original images or description becomes completely inaccessible.
This feels unnecessarily frustrating, especially when the issue is something minor that could easily be corrected. Instead of fully disabling the content, could you consider setting it to private instead? That way, it’s not visible to the public, but the original uploader can still access it, make changes, and resubmit for review. This would encourage compliance without discouraging contributions.
Of course, I understand that for serious violations—like inappropriate content or abuse—a full disable makes sense. But for basic guideline issues, a private status would strike a better balance between enforcement and user-friendliness.
Thanks for considering this.
