Reporting Posts

[Nevermind]

I think it would be a nice addition to have a drop down menu for reporting posts. When you click "Report Post," you will see a window with this drop down menu;

The drop down menu will contain a list of reasons for reporting the post such as flaming, wrong subforum, advertisement, etc. I believe that this will make reporting posts quicker, cleaner, more efficient, and easier for everyone involved. Also, there should be a tab for "Other" which allows you to write your own reason as to why the post is being reported.

Bump. I think this should go in effect also. I like to be specific.

I would love this to be added, would be easier for the users.

Great suggestion, Leader. I suggested this around this time last year.

There should be a drop down menu for reporting posts. The reports should be as followed:

Begging: Includes begging for donations, vouches, vouch copies, group memberships, awards, etc.
Cross Posting: Includes the posting of the same content in multiple subforums
Flaming: Threatening behavior and harassment towards others
Gravedigging: For replies that are made after three months after the most recent post
Infected Download: Any downloads that show up as infected with malware, viruses, etc.
Low Quality: Any non 25 character posts, LQ posts in general, and posts unrelated to the OP's topic
Marketplace Cross Posting: Posting of sale items in multiple market place subforums for more extensive traffic
Not Allowed: Hacking, black hat activity, nudity, and or anything that may be unsuitable for younger audiences
Personal Data: Includes personal content of other members such as one's DOX
Profile Violation: Includes more than one image per signature, profile images (avatar/signature) that include nudity or adult content
Reputation Abuse: Asking for reputation, hinting towards reputation, and or offering reputation as currency
Spam Posting: Anything that may come off as spam such as product advertisement
Wrong Forum: For threads that do not resemble the forum's topic in which they are posting
Other: Includes anything that should be reported that is not listed above. Once clicked, members should be prompted to explain what it is that they are reporting and why they are reporting it.

Keep in mind, if this were to ever be added, the bold words would make up the list, excluding the report description.

I believe this will add more stability to posts that have pending reports. In other words, it's easier for us members to report posts, and easier for the forum team to review the reports.

Thanks for the feedback and support, Jason.

I strongly fucks with this.

 

[Poop]

I like to make my own reasons doe. There should be a option that says "other" and allows me to write my own.

 

[Nevermind]

I'd like to see some more opinions.

 

[Michael]

Exactly what Poop said. I'd like to be able to write my own but a drop down menu would be nice.

 

[Nevermind]

I'd like to see this added sometime soon.

 

[Glitch]

I'll agree with @Poop , while I have not reported any posts I think if I may need to report a post I should have an option to specify a reason.

The reason why FK doesn't use those drop downs like HF is because, it's much easy to type what you want.

 

[Porsche]

this is a awesome idea, it would be great if this could be implented

I still think we should get dropdowns. It would also make it easier for staff to categorize them.

 

[Hope]

This is a great suggestion. Hope this gets implemented.

 

[Sexy]

I also like that, because I bet it's hard to know what some people say sometimes for the comment, good idea

We have had this before, I may add this back int he future.

Thanks for processing my upgrade though!

Also, @Philly , is there anyway to fix my post count? I should have at least 400 posts by now. (You should be able to do it from the adminCP. I know you can definitely do it through FK 's SQL tables though.)

No problem, what are you talking about? :O Your post count surely didn't magically go down, what you have is what you got.

@Philly Look, this happened when @Shift 's posting contest was deleted:

And I was originally at -19 when it first happened. I'm not the only one either. @Hey , @Satanism , and @Hope were also affected.
