could you make it easier to report questions please?

[bednobs]

ok so it's not all that hard but make a category for advertising (as we seem to have to report tonnes of them at the mo. It would save me whole words of typing.
Also, the silly letters you have to put in are hard to read!

[anneasquith]

why not leave the reporting to the moderators...................thats their job ?

[AB Editor]

No anne, it isn't. It is everyone's job to report content which is offensive or breaks Site Rules.

The reason is Bednobs, that we want to make reporting a serious business. I understand it is a pain, but can you image how we would be spammed without the Captcha?

All the best,

Spare Ed

i like doc never report, i just ignore

[wolf63]

I didn't know we had a moderator. Is this a new appointment or have I just been wandering around in my own little world and missing world events again?

[ummmm]

I do report the spammers now (not you Doc..lol)

[AB Editor]

Just curious: Why don't you report?

I applaud your ability to ignore it though.

Spare Ed

[anneasquith]

its simple to ignore..............press the button.................. and ed if it everyones responsibility to report, why have moderators on site ?

[ttfn]

Ed - it is a bit like Captcha if you can. I find the AB one rather difficult to read - my eyesight is not what it used to be (like the rest of this old wreck). For anyone with a more serious visual impairment it must be extremely difficult to decipher.

The Mods are there to remove the things we report Anne.

[ummmm]

And suspend people :-(((

[B00]

lol yes, like ummmm there when she goes to the bad place.

Why does anne seem to have a thing about the moderators?

[AB Editor]

There are 4 Editors who deal with reports and have the ability to ban people, make threads sticky etc.

There are several moderators - these are users on the site. They can suspend other users, but they cannot ban them. They cannot see reports.

All the best,

Spare Ed

[ummmm]

I wonder how many times you'll have to repeat that Ed :-)

[B00]

So there's an Ed, a spare ed, a spare spare ed, and a spare spare spare ed?

Cool!

[anneasquith]

craft,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,"my thing" is that i do not think moderators should be active abers, imo
