It's really hard to tell if you're account or games are in the process of being indexed, quarantined, or suspended, maybe have some sorta ui notice that shows their status somewhere on the page of user or their games?, seems like it'd save a lot of hassle and clear up misunderstandings. 

Maybe have a link with the notice that opens  anew tab to the rules violated or something, just seems like a common issue that people just don't know the status of their content and there's no ui or notice or anything to indicate what's going on. Hell I'd setting for a little text on the game profile that says something as simple as "Indexing..., please wait...". I know it'd greatly appreciated it with whatever's going on with my account atm.

Plus seems like it'd save support staff a large headache too.

No discussion of account restrictions, including topics that try to discuss something else so that you may bring up your account’s restriction. Your account is under restriction because you distributed content that very obviously portrayed children in a sexualized way. “old collab partner sneaking something sus in a very old project of mine” is no excuse, you take full responsibility for everything you upload.

Account restrictions exist to protect our platform from bad actors. Although it’s unfortunate that legitimate users may be affected, we do not share the specifics of our review policies at this time to prevent manipulation of the systems. Individual account issues must be handled directly through support.

I agree! We also need better language, because a lot of people don't understand what "indexed" means. I tend to forget not everyone is a web developer.

Agreed! Just some sorta ui to let peeps know whats going on with their account or games would really save you especially a lot of hassle, seen you personally explain "it's indexing, please wait" in various ways over many posts, XD

Would certainly help peeps know whats going on, hell I accidentally broke some rules due to my old collab partner sneaking something sus in a very old project of mine and haven't known about it for literally years til i got the email letting me know i was suspended? 2 weeks ago, right after one of my prototypes got popular. Got to exchange maybe 2 emails before having radio silence ever since and its been like 2 weeks so I have no idea what happening to my account right now aside from no one being able to search it or it's games on itch. 

Some sorta notice ui would greatly help and save us all some stress it seems, XD
