When to use the report post icon ??? - Page 2

**Heather** · 11-02-2007

I find it funny that the people who most use the "report a post" function for non-spam-related issues are those who tend to make the most inflammatory remarks themselves.

When I get a "report a post," I usually then read the thread in question and then act/not act then based on whether or not I think it's warranted or if it's just someone being a "tattletale." Sometimes I call in the BGH for assistance if I'm on the fence.

I do agree that we should be able to work this out like grown people, and I like it when someone admits they've stepped over the line and apologizes publicly. Sadly, that doesn't happen nearly often enough.

Okay, SO not fair....what'd I miss now?

I have never reported a post, or used the ignore function. I like to do like Bumper and do my own censorship rather than having others censor for me.

Wow, Scott....little bit TMI there maybe?

But you're doing great, I sure wouldn't want your job, keep up the good work.

I'm just a lowly mod over on the Tulum board (but admit I haven't even visited there in awhile!

) and over there I've only received 'reported post' emails for Spam (which I don't really get anymore, James fixed the board up nice and spam rarely gets through anymore).

They all play nice over there...

Then again, there is no 'off-topic' section, so everything is about Tulum. And fewer members, obviously.

Can y'all please move over to the Presidential thread? I may need to be "reported upon"!

Hey sexy, judging by your avatar that healthy crap has done you the world of good!

Just put me on record as reporting anyone who disagrees with anything I say. Ban 'em all. Then, I can spend the rest of my days performing forum masturbation.
