Default PSA: There's a "Report" button for a reason

For those who don't know, in the upper right-hand corner of each post is a little, red triangle with a "!" symbol inside. If you click on this button, labeled "Report Post", it takes you to a page where you can report the associated post as spam/trolling/nudity/racist/whatever and the mods will take care of it when they can. Responding, and especially quoting, a post you feel does not belong in a certain section of the forums only highlights the offending post, and creates additional work for mods because now they have to delete two posts instead of one.

Jesus, for people who claim vast knowledge of game mechanics, you're lack of knowledge about forum mechanics is embarrassing.

A moderator, we don't have those.

Your lack of knowledge on forumquest staff is embarrassing.

Reporting is useless.

Everything I've reported has been removed within 12 hours. Not "instant", but I can't complain.

Good to know you are a crying loser. It's almost as if your other posts never proved it enough for us.

it's probably because it was browsed by a GM.

Unless one of the new GMs actually started looking at the reports, but last I heard they don't get notified of the reports.

Using the red ! used to send a PM directly to Rogean's cellphone.

I don't know if it still does or not.

I've probably said too much already.

So you're saying that you actually patrol an Everquest emulator forum to report mildly inappropriate posts and then spam F5 to track when action has been taken?

Please kill me if my life is ever that bereft of activities.
