Let's talk about the posts on the forums that we have reported and what happened next. I will go first since I have reported one post and it was a guy complaining about people not getting probated for posting anime and he posted an anime picture so I reported the post and he got a 6 hours probation I think

i report all of the posts that are just people say that they're gay. you know the ones. not because it's no-quality poo poo-posting, but because my religion forbids homosexuality. homo sex is sin, in fact. so i want these people to burn in hell. barring that, having them reported and banned by the dutiful, dedicated, moderatorship of these fine boards will have to do

I think a good kind of post to report would be the one that guys who are angry about racism make where they say the full N word as a way of making fun of racists

I don't have platinum now and it's a good thing too because I would probably be reporting all these off topic no content posts by guys who think it is bad rear end to pay for a feature and not use it

Yeah it comes with the platinum upgrade that costs 10$ and also includes private messages which I am assuming the cosa nostra of online dudes acting tough in this thread also have no use for

As tempting as it probably is to the people that read his posts I'm sure that even reporting Ralp is a big fail if you want to be like Tony Montana from the movie Scarface on the something awful forums

Where is this report button everyone keeps talking about ? I too would like to take petty revenge on the people who disagree with me.

I use up my limit daily. Sometimes I can't find enough poo poo to report so I gotta make the posts myself.

I report people all the time because I am a troll and an anarchist. I sometimes report people for breaking rules that I don't even think should be rules.

Do mods have to respond to every report ?? I would just delete most of them because I'm lazy .

Fun fact:

You can't report your own posts. You can get to the screen where you fill out the reason but when you hit submit it says a random funny thing from a pool of responses.

There was a mod forum leak once about reports. There is a form that has to be filled out for each one listing assessment and resolution and poo poo.

Sounds tedious and boring. Like something that only money would incentivize you to do.

It seems like you might be able to add yourself to your own blocklist though, but I haven't actually clicked the button for fear of breaking the forums/missing out on huffing my own posts.
