You may only submit 10 reports in a 24-hour period



Does it always do this, if you try to report more than 10 people? Or did someone get mad at me and take my privileges away?

Thanks guys.

i think this was done to stop people from reporting every post by people that they do not like. it cuts down on the kiddie wars.

Re: You may only submit 10 reports in a 24-hour pe

If something is really offensive in a popular forum like the watercooler, chances are we're getting several reports on it already

The limit prevents people who get mad at mods from flooding us with reports.. it's happened a few times.

It also slows down members who are angry at another particular member, and Hey Mod all that member's posts.

Sounds like a reasonable limit

I'm glad I didn't make a mod mad, thus them taking away my "Hey Mods" privileges

Thanks for your responses.

Gee, you mean users actually report ten a day?!! I haven't reported 10 in an entire year. I almost never use that button. Maybe that is because I don't read the silly entertainment forums and I don't believe in solving differences between a particular member and myself should be handled by reporting them. I use that button only for extreme flaming (not ordinary flaming) and when someone posts a warez site or live virus site.

Re: You may only submit 10 reports in a 24-hour period

I use it fairly often... mainly to get a mod's attention to move a thread to a more appropriate forum. I do also flag personal attacks... but as far as policing anyone... I try to let the forum hosts handle that one on their own.
