''I am the Shadow of the Samurai. End of your life.'' (Cue mindless hacking with katana)

No system is perfect. I'm not gonna argue with you Goat, sure, Viper's post was of course not worthy of report.

But abuse WILL happen.

I think there needs to be a seperate button for disgusting links.

Example:

Post 1: YOU GUYS ARE -blam!- PRICKS I HATE YOU GO DIE

You would click 'Report'

Post 2: disgustingwebsite

You would click 'Report Link' or something.

It would be easier for the ninjas to sift through. I think a link like the John Cena guy was doing needs to be seen before some guy venting his useless opinion.

everybody listen to mac2po he is 100% right

Disabling the Report Button would bring more harm then good. I agree there should some type of form to fill out when reporting a post. It would turn people off doing it incorrectly.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

No, I don't think he is trolling or idiotic, so you shouldn't flame him for his different ideas.

But I understand where he is coming from, it is annoying to make a thread completely following all rules and then get reported.

I think mods should be able to un-collapse a good thread with bad reports.

Commando ain't strong enough, and boxers don't got enough fight in 'em. Briefs're just too short, and thongs're fer the ladies.

I stuff it into a gun holster. It barely fits.

Y'all're still derping about the hyperbole title? Goddamn...

Hello! I'm Bunie.net's resident medical student (hell i'm sure there are more but I'm the only one who openly declares it!) I love my emblem, and I am periodically active.
I have a Twitter

I like the idea of a description, perhaps a tweet like amount of characters to explain why?

OP - You're a dumbass with the reading comprehension skills of a second grader.


Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

Found another topic that shouldn't have had the OP reported.

I'm finding out more and more that if you're in the Flood or Reach forum, the OP is almost always reported if the majority of that forum population doesn't have the same views or opinions as them.

Sorry, Goat. Looks like trolling will be that much harder. *sigh*
No, there is nothing we can do. The report button is a helpful tool when used properly, and the benefits outweigh the slight inconveniences some people experience. Not to mention this thread belongs in The Flood.
Most of the mis-reported threads are trolling threads anyway, and who needs those?
Case closed.

It's ridiculous that this thread has lasted so long, there is no question that we need the report button. Adding a form to fill out wouldn't decrease abuse, it would just waste moderators' time with the senseless crap abusers vomit onto the keyboard. I think the current solution fits the problem perfectly.

In moderation, as in life: keep it simple, stupid.

haha i love how the OP was reported

  • 07.16.2011 6:46 PM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

A reason for reporting? Great idea. I doubt anyone would put "asdfdfogihnesdgn" in the text box where your reason would go. And I doubt any of the mods would have a problem reading all of your "reasons" instead of simply looking at the post and deciding if it should be taken care of.

I'm all for this.

He'd have instantly stopped and knelt down, one fist on the ground, hoping to be impervious to the officer's attacks. When this would have failed and he's in the back of the police car, he'd blame his predicament on his friends for not being team players.

Think before you post

Goat, I just think you're hyper-sensitive to this topic because you post a lot of things that people tend to report. While sometimes, perfectly legitimate posts might get reported because people disagree with them, the feature does a lot of good.

Thank you, Count Obvious.

If we were to have reasons implemented, a reason still wouldn't be necessary when reporting a post, and you could limit the characters to 50 or something...I'm pretty sure a few 'alskdj' lines won't totally kill your week...
