Subject: Regarding the Report as Spam Feature

Is it to be used purely for spam, or can it be used for other infractions as well?

I would assume it's for other infractions too...but that's me.

Yes, other infractions as well (i.e. Trolling, bumping etc)

Also, move the "Report spam" button to the left side of the page.

"Ok, let's reply or message user."
"Oops, I reported it as spam instead, because the buttons are so close to each other."

Well, accidents can happen. And if a moderator deems it as in the wrong, they'll just ignore it. But if that continues to happen people seriously need some glasses.

Someone told me when you hit the button, a message pops up to confirm it. So it's all good.

Wow! Finally! [url= http://www.youfail.org]Here[/url] you go... I have to warn you that it isn't worth it. Such a failure this week. I would rather have not had an update at all.

Ahh, this is SUCH A NICE FEATURE!

I am assuming that the higher you are (I.E. Member, Heroic, Legendary, Mythic [?]) it will determine the 'Reliability' of the threads you report as spam, (i.e. Members marked with Blue flags, Heroic with Yellow, Legendary with Orange, and Mythic with Red). This will also help with the:

'OMG! Where arts thou teh Ninja's!!!!'

Ahh, all is good. Thanks Bungie!

-Quaere verum.

Got a report? Use the report tool or send a pm.
Chairleg Productions presents: 'Console Wars' and 'Games as Art?' (also on Halo Waypoint).

Sure it can be used for other infractions. Instead of users having to PM us about an issue, they can just use this system.

Okay. I just wanted to make sure because it could've said "report this post" instead of "report as spam". I just wanted clarification on the issue. Thanks.

Good. I am glad this is finally happening.

Nope. Your forum title affects nothing.

Doesn't all of that fall under spam? (Not in a sarcastic tone)

You missed the point like Vader missed the banshee, your whole argument is covered in bees.
Stop sending me group invites -blam!-s!

How does the system distinguish between abuse and legitimate reports? What if someone is reporting a lot of spam in a short space of time and it is legitimate?

Eh, at least I think I am halfway correct: This will solve the 'OMG! Where arts thou teh Ninja's!!!' problem!

I wonder if you want to report a whole thread...Do you have to report the thread maker, or can you report on anyone in that thread? Does the system just flag the whole thread or does it narrow it down to members aswell? I may have missed that part.

I believe it's member specific, but if there's an issue with the thread topic itself, just report the OP.


Also, why is it that you can report things more than once?

Halo3Planet, the place for all things Halo 3..

Need help finding skulls, make sure to go here.

I've only got one question regarding the new feature.

Is it still necessary to message moderators about bad threads? Will it make their job easier, or does it not need to be done anymore?

  • 12.10.2007 2:28 PM PDT

Controlling fission events without incident since May, 2012.

Another question that I've wondered for the past few minutes that falls under this category. Is it likely that a certain amount of "report as spam" buttons clicked on an opening post in a thread will get it locked? I'd just think that it would help to drop spam in the forum, say 30 people walk into a blog post or a troll post, but no moderator is around, can good members in force take down mindless drivel or offensive content?

I like how the moderators/administrators don't have a "report as spam" button in their posts :D
