The 'Report to Moderator' Button
« on: June 10, 2009, 08:23:05 PM »
Hi everybody!

The Moderators here would like to remind everyone about the 'Report to Moderator' button.  This feature of the forums is to be used when someone feels that a post they've read is inappropriate in one way or another. 

First we would like to thank you all for your help.  Even though we are vigilant, and there are always at least 2 or 3 of us on the boards at all times, we sometimes don't catch things immediately.  We would like to remind everyone however, that the  Report button should be reserved for something really bad, not for minor issues.

Some issues that we would really like to see are:
 - spam
 - links to inappropriate sites
 - offensive language or pictures
 - disparaging comments relating to race, gender, religion (or lack/difference of), preferences, etc.
 - if you are the author of the thread
 - if you wouldn't want your child to read it

Please note that there are at least two or three moderators on the boards at all times and while we may not catch the offensive posts immediately, we usually get to them in a timely manner.

If there is a post that you would like a moderator to look at, but is not severe enough to report, please feel free to send a PM to a Moderator that's currently online.

As always, if you have any questions on this, please feel free to contact any of the Moderator staff.

Bump...again,  still applies...the report to moderator button is only for very serious forum offenses. Please refrain from using it to ask questions that can be answered via pm.

Bumping this again...we have had a number of people reporting posts of their own asking for it to be moved...this is more easily accomplished by simply sending a pm to a moderator.
