If you report a post that doesn't break a rule you'll be banned.

:mrwave:

Posts that should be reported are:
Spam
Nudity in any of the OT forums
Sick/extremely offensive content... if you are at all unsure if the content meets this criteria then DON'T report it, simply PM one of the mods or me with an FYI that we might want to take a look at it... If one of us already posted in the thread then we obviously saw it.


Do not Report Threads because you think it's funny... Yeah lots of people say 'thread reported' but 95% of the time they don't actually do it- if you do do it for no good reason you're going to take the punishment for it.

You said "do do." Thread reported for offensive content.

I do not understand why this angered you so much Joe.
Because some people actually think using the 'report post' is funny- meanwhile it e-mails and PM's all the mods it can get very annoying for the people actually trying to clean up spam and whatnot.

For the last 2 months every time something like this happens I've been meaning to make such a post but usually it's the middle of the night and I'm tried/busy to worry about it... this morning the timing was right.

instead of Bans you should issue punishments. Take away their rep, or disable their PMs, disable their use of smilies, and the such. That would bring the raaar.

It would bring the rarr but it's more work for me to make new usergroups for them and to move them in and out of it.

Ahh. I would offer to help and set-up the entire thing for you but I know your answer. :jump:

As for alcatraz I did not enjoy it too much. It was just another useless sub-forum to me.

Setup the "report post" feature to email the complaint to the person that pressed the button.
