I think it would be a good idea if users had the power to flag a threat or post they see as inappropriate, that way staff can find problems easier. Maybe not all users could have it, because there are some people out there who would just keep clicking it to bug the mods, so maybe this should somehow be reserved to people who have been consistently on Res forums for a long time? What do you think?

I like it, but some people might abuse it or even may accidentally click it and that would annoy staff, although it is a good idea, some people will ruin it

I support the idea, for all users to do it.

There's always going to be people to abuse the system, so I also support rules to be in place for warnings being issued if someone abuses the system.

I also think that when people flag a thread, it should re-direct them to another page where they have the option of writing in why they're flagging the thread. This can prevent the accidental slip of a mouse and also be useful to staff as a lot of people would probably take the time to write a few words on why they're reporting a post.

I for one, don't really like having to send in a Support Ticket to report things, although I do if I see something serious. I'd feel like a snitch if my Support Ticket list got too long with reporting stuff. xP

Support.

 

It could be in the form of a small pixel icon at the top of every post that would link to a link to "Report the post". Of course there must also be a form of some sort for it.

Support. C: So long as we had a sort of safety net; my finger's big and it moves around a lot. XD So I'd probably end up reporting my own thread or something.

Well they could also have a "Are you sure you would like to Report this Thread?" And a Yes/No button for accidental slips of fingers.

I agree with ipod, then our accidently clickings can be stopped, or even if sibling decide its funy to steal the mouse and click random buttons -_- it happens for whatever reason it is for our accidents

Love the idea.

 

And just so you guys know, the accidental reporting that happens now doesn't bug us at all. <33 I still hit that button myself at times.

It's actually hilarious sometimes to see the things that get sent in xD
