lol I can see when people report posts in the bottom left of the page. It's not hidden from the public! I can give you names of who has recently reported the posts too if you don't believe me (If I happen to somehow be the only one because my work comp sucks bad x.x) aaannnyyhhhooowwww I don't think this is even marginally important, so I wouldn't worry to much about this in the greater scheme of shit you're fixing. :wink:
 
Yeah, I can see them too. Kinda funny.
 
Yeah, it is very minor if you don't mind people knowing that you're reporting posts. I thought Miros asked for everyone to stop reporting posts until it's fixed?
 
I reported a post earlier, but good freaking luck guessing where from.

No outing me, Kotsu :o

If'n he did, oops; I don't remember reading that. Either way, the post I did report was exceptionally mean-spirited and definitely warranted reporting.

but I like mean spirited... ; ; I'm so bored at work right now and feeling silly lazy. lol Too lazy to even bother helping myself and do work. I want a soda. I is on diets tho. Lost 10.3 pounds in 1 week so far. Water is boring... must get home.... crystal light...

Oh, I'm now just typing everything on my mind. boobies
 
Do spitting to lose weight. After a few hours of that your "boring" water will look like ambrosia.
 
Honestly, when I say this, take it to heart. Instead of reporting the post, PM it to a moderator.

The report post forum where we look to find issues with the board, is not showing any new topics ever since the change. Report post is useless until we fix it.
 
I get up at 4:45AM every day, go to the gym from 5-7, shower at gym and leave by 7 and at work from 7:45AM until 6-7, go home, home between 7 and 8, and find something to do... which tends to be helping people on ffxi... ; ; I need moar sleep

Oh, moral of that rant is that I drink water like crazy at the gym cuz my fat ass sweats like crazy from 45 minutes of cardio and an hour of lifting. x.x

I second this. For the time being, instead of reporting, just pick some mod or other that you trust to treat you fairly, and PM your concern to them. If possible, use the quote-post button and copy the result into the PM, so we get that friendly little quote-link to use to *find* the offending post.

Of course, don't expect the personalization to make the process work differently than otherwise, aka don't confuse "fairly" with "favorably":

Some things, such as a missed spambot post, a double post, or an event scheduling thing in general discussion, are just obvious and we take care of them. Some things we just roll our eyes at, because there's no problem with the reported post and (for example) people need to grow a thicker skin for the flameboard.

And some things are complicated (note that "flamebait" complaints usually fall into this category) and we'll probably end up reposting the PM on the mod forums to discuss it before taking action, which will delay the response somewhat.

(And all of it is pending the mod in question actually logging on to get the PM, of course.)

Hopefully the report post function will be fixed soon - although the poor taru has a ton of stuff on his plate as it is - but in the meantime, this'll be a viable workaround.

EDIT: Yay moot point, since report post is fixed.
