I was thinking about what some people were grieving about with the downvote system. So now I'm asking you what do you think Bored Panda should implement to this already awesome site?
No inappropriate comments, no drug dealing, no hate language, for the love of god NO POLITICS, and no trolls or spam messages. This is a civilized site, and I've already gotten d**k pics and all of the above.
Have fun!

THE DOWNVOTE SYSTEM! I cannot emphasize how much this ticks me off. 10 downvotes or less can get you banned temporarily or permanently and the staff don't even listen or reach out to you! So many great members got banned due to a couple of rouge comments that were meant as a joke and such. Maybe we can replace the downvote system of banning with a downvote doing nothing and having a report button instead.
Also, I think it would be very cool if we can edit answers or even change the font of our answers. Or maybe having a helpdesk or chatroom for people with questions and members with getting unbanned and such.

Admins need to ease up on the censoring. Some of the words that are censored have absolutely no logic to it

- Good News should have its own category. Right now it redirects to the people category and there are mostly depressing and sad stories, the opposite of Good News.

I would suggest stopping contracting the vaccine threads. So for example of you have a thread of 100 images, don’t reduce it to 30 with the link to see the rest of the images. Just show the 100.
I would also like to see formatting in the comments. So we can separate our comments into paragraphs etc which would make it easier to read.
A notification if your comment gets 100 upvotes. You have it for 1 and 10 upvotes so why not 100

An option in our profile to always show the full post. If you've got a few "replied to your comment", and you have to load the thread, scroll to the bottom, click show all, wait for it to scroll to your reply, read it. Do it all over again. Particularly when you might have a few such replies/10votes etc. I'm not on dial up, just show the full thread (or put the show all at the top)

Quit selling out for ads! I used to spend hours a day reading the stories but having to close out 3 ads EVERY SINGLE TIME I open a story is too much.

Stop suspending people for downvoted opinions (the ones that are not abusive)

Some kind of DMs or chats (with a block option, for the trolls) would be fun. I know this probably wouldn't happen, I'm just thinking out loud :)

More questions that allow answers to be added, like this one, will encourage more participation. Conversely when a set of answers (pictures, quotes, whatever) is so quickly limited to display the first n only, based on upvotes, it's difficult to see any new answers. Maybe only restrict the number of answers shown after a few days, rather than just a few hours as it currently seems to do.

Editing comments in the app. I hate switching to the browser view but the app does not offer editing to me.

Fix the notifications. Sometimes I click on it, and it says there are none there. Sometimes I click on one, and it doesn't load at all. Sometimes I click on it, and it takes me to the article, but not my comment.
