Does it send a PM to the moderator that is online with the thread link? What if there is no mod online?

Hello.

I don't think the Forum Ninjas would want us to know how it works. That is fine. If action is taken for the post I reported, than I am happy.

It just seems so unpersonal? (i'm debating with myself if that is a word) Would you mail a letter to the police or just call 911?

Impersonal is the word you are looking for, silly pants.

If enough members use it it can and will become much more effective than Personal Emails or PMs towards Moderators. This system can keep threads tracked even when there are no Mods on at the time, ensuring that it will, eventually, be handled. So, even if you do want to PM a Mod, report it.

ild assume there's a forum we cant see that gets updated when we press the button or something similar

or perhaps it makes the forum post in question stick out in some way to them

idk. i wish you could hit report then choose what rule they broke. like bumping or spamming or even feeding the trolls. that would make me feel better then "do you really want to report this post as inappropriate?"

Hello.

Like I said, if action is taken, I am fine. I actually had reported a post before, and when I viewed it again, it wasn't there (so the Forum Ninjas must have blacklisted the user).

I can understand everyone's curiousity, but all that really matters if it works.

Now, I know that a lof of people complain about the fact that reporting users never works. Well, I must be lucky, because the post I report usually result in action taken on that post.

  • 03.14.2008 7:42 PM PDT

you know they should really do something. i dont want to call the ninjas on just anyone. i want to have the ppl that leave 5 post in a row on their own topic to be licked by a hippo not the guy that does it twice.

It goes into the spam queve.

The mods thus look at it a lot and lock accordingly.
