Using the Report Post Feature

Grenadiac · Post by **Grenadiac** » Sun Sep 25, 2005 2:37 pm

The new forum has a feature called "report post". If you find any posts that violate any of the rules, click the Exclamation Icon in that post (located at the top right of the post). This brings up a form where you fill in what rule the post is breaking. This makes it easier for moderators to enforce the rules by giving them a list of "reported posts" that they can edit/delete/move.

I have a question thoug could we use it to report oversized sigs? not really what it was meant for but it might make things easier as long as we said first that it was a sig report

I would say no, we have a thread for oversized sigs.

Well, if you helped people a lot, you'd get a helper emblem, if you helped people really really well and were very knowledgable, you'd get rank three, if you helped people, but not really good, you'd get rank one, and for two, inbetween rank three and one... You'll figure it out eventually

I should get a rank 1. lol.

Yes yes yes.

You can click report post, but it won't be entered until you click submit in the page that follows.

im just asking out of curiosity...
if i was to lets say report someone eg ummm, kirk for no real reason, does it get tracked?

just asking as if i would be mean to kirk

Kirk · Post by **Kirk** » Sun Sep 25, 2005 5:45 pm

We would know who reported it, yes. So all of you thinking of spamming it, I'd advise you not to...

Basically, it's like 911. But less calm female voices.
