To all my friends who use pinterest!!! I don’t know of a better way to get a hold of most of you except to post something on here…
I have loved this site and have gotten so inspired by it; however, I have noticed that there are people posting a lot of images and quotes that are offensive to the spirit. I have tried to screen them out, but there is no way to make a search safe. Not only that, but the user agreement states that pins should be clean…
Please help me keep this site clean by writing a complaint to Pinterest! hi@pinterest.com
Thanks much!
If you need some help constructing a letter, this is what I wrote:
Dear Pinterest:
I love your website! I am a pinning addict! However, over the past couple of weeks I have noticed an increasing amount of offensive photos being pinned on your website. There is no way to flag them or to screen them out of my searching. I am contemplating leaving pinterest because I don't want to look at any type of photo or quote that uses profane language or is pornographic. I have loved being a member, but don't want these images, suggestions, and statements in my head.
I read your statement of use and each person who gets an account agrees not to pin offensive photos or quotes... but this isn't being enforced. Please do something so that I and others can enjoy a clean, worry-free website!
Sincerely,
Claire Thomas

I was thinking the same thing! I was about to write a letter to them, so thank you for doing that for me :) I will use your message to write to them also. It's such a fun thing, and I hate that people have to ruin everything with offensive stuff.
