I think the 2nd (?) response was the key.. they want to see an option that says "report objectionable content". So just add an option that says this, even if it does the same thing as an option you already have. Just add another. Then remove it with another update later. These people are literally robots and have to reject a certain number of apps a day, or something. Just do what they ask even if it makes no sense.

This is what I saw too. Particularly this paragraph:

> We confirm that your app has options to report and block abusive users but your app does not contain functionality to report objectionable content.

It may be worth explicitly pointing out to them that the "Report" button in the screenshot reports the comment, not the user (even though it is in the same menu as the Block User button). You may even consider changing the text on the button to "Report Comment" as even to me what is being reported isn't super obvious.

With all of that said, it is a serious that the reviewers are so reluctant to provide information on the problem. Even separating the custom message from the template, rather than sandwiching it between 4 paragraphs of copy-paste, would likely make it easier to understand their complaints.

[Kevin Cox](https://hashnode.com/@kevincox) Agreed, when you tap on a comment is gives you the option to "Report" (the comment you just tapped) or "Block User" the user that made the comment. Maybe changing the wording is what they're looking for...? I'll try a few things but the guess work of trying to decipher what exactly they want is just infuriating.

Thanks for reading!

Kafkaesque performative compliance is an oft-used tool in maintaining monopoly and accordingly one of monopoly's worst side effects. Sorry for your experience.

Trial and error is your best friend here since it's often the performance of request and response that is required from you.

What you possibly need to do is add a button somewhere letting users report your content as objectionable (not the UGC, for which you have said features).

That's my best guess but yea perform or die I guess. Good luck swallowing the bitter pill.
