Reporting A Post (Important Reminder)

[dannibear]

It has come to our attention that some may not know how to report a post, or where the report post button is.
These are the forum rules for TalkJesus:

Forum Rules

1. Treat others with respect when posting. Do not use harsh tones, respond in anger or belittle others' beliefs. No gossiping.
2. No profanity or coarse joking
3. No links (web addresses of any kind) unless you meet 2 requirements
   - 100 posts minimum in the forums
   - request Chad's permission via private message
4. No unbiblical teaching
5. Cite author when pasting their works
6. Provide Scripture when making a biblical point
7. Follow simple forum posting etiquettes
8. No soliciting anywhere on the site.

Rules for Posting in Forums

• Proper Editing Guideline
• Max 2 colors allowed
• Do Not Post
  • only smilies
  • one word responses
  • double post
  • all CAPS (considered shouting)

When you see a post that violates one of these rules, go to the bottom left of their post. You will see a triangle with an exclamation point inside. That is the report post tool. When you click that symbol, you will be directed to a box that will ask you to submit a message stating why the post violates one of the rules. Note: This is ONLY to be used to report spam, advertising messages, and problematic (harassment, fighting, or rude) posts. When we receive a report and find that there is a violation, the member will get a simple warning via private message if they break a rule. As stated by @Chad, please respect the community. Its a privilege to be here, not a right. You get banned immediately if you curse, insult someone else, or preach anything outside of Scripture purposely.

By reporting a post, you help us catch posts that violate the rules much quicker.

Thanks for posting this. I was under the impression this was to report profanity or improper web-links. This clears up many things.

Thank you, Dannibear. I've been trying to figure out how to report a post for weeks.

Thank you for this very informative thread

I have reported a number of posts over time.
Usually they have been posts that I perceive as being unglorifying to the Lord, rude, condemning or argumentative
However, I am often left wondering about whether I should have reported 'that particular post', particularly if the post remains in place.

I know the team must be very busy, but thought it may be useful, to have a little feedback.
Just a simple note that the issue has been recieved is being dealt with
Or a note to say the reporting was not really considered relevant

Thank you

A very good idea in my opinion Fragrant Grace, and I will be posting this idea to show the others and see what they think!

I never read this before either ! I got in trouble once posting a link ! I thought i only need to have posted over 100 times ! I did not know i had to get permission ! Also did not know they counted caps as shouts !

I used caps in the past to bring it out as important ! But i Do know many count them as shouting, i never have! But that Ok !

Funny How these things get started and become such a big deal ?

I once did the same, no worries! Now when I want to emphasize something, I bold the words.

@Fragrant Grace , that thought is a great addition, and will be implemented from now on.
