This thread would have appealed to me more if it was written with crayons.

I broke one of the cords for my X11s because I couldn't get past the final American course in Doritos Crash Course.

More importantly, why can you reply to yourself?

I can't report any of you.

*feels left out*



Really you should be able to, sometimes mods just want to report it and have another mod do their job.

For the EXACT same reason I can ban myself.

Self-flagellation. It's all the rage in some countries. You should try it sometime.


When I read the title of the thread, you were the first thing that popped into my head:

Recon bans himself. Funny blam! right there...

OT: why not?

So, If people report themselves, the mods can see that in their queue, how many times have they actually banned someone for reporting themselves?

The moderators can't see who reported a post. They only see the amount of unique users reporting. However, the system itself does track who reported what and the result of that report - so if you submit enough reports to waste the moderator's time, the system will report you to the moderators for possible abuse of the reporting system.

I think my question would be not why can we report ourselves but to the mods and bungie staff:

What is your reaction when you look at the report que and the person reported is the same as the person reported by?

That Unleash Ninjas button is much more 'pressable', for lack of a better word...

The things that drive us nuts huh? I'll bet it was left there because what ever code is used just puts it on everyones post, including your own. The report button that is. Of course you can't report a Moderator or Bungie staff, but it's probably a lot of work to take it out of everyones individual posts. I'm sure there are more important things to tend to.

Just a guess here.

Why do people in ship mutinies always ask for "better treatment"? I'd ask for a pinball machine, because with all that rocking back and forth, you'd get a lot of free games.

Maybe in order to understand mankind, we have to look at the word itself: "Mankind". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "mank" and "ind". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is mankind.

I think the fix was easy, but Achronos thought it was too funny to fix.

Oh but you can. Some people from the Flood reported him and even got his post flagged for off-topic posting.

But if you make reports and the mods end up banning/warning said user for that post, there is a sort of 'incentive' is there not?

I feel like if there is, this is one of those rare occasions to promote the report button with it =P
