Fine tune the reporting of forum posts

As of late there appears to be an influx of newly registered users visiting the forum for various but obvious reasons.

While discussions have remained civil, these new users seem to have entered here with the “Reddit” downvote mentality and are imho abusing the reporting of posts.

Politely worded opinions by many users that contravene the views of these newcomers are constantly being reported so as to have them hidden from views until such time a moderator / staff can unhide them.

Frankly this is juvenile. Disagreeing with someone’s view isn’t “offensive” if it’s done politely.

I’d suggest either disabling the auto-hide feature completely, revert it to a true report feature causing an actual review by Trakt before it gets hidden / deleted, or impose some kind of time limited factor that members don’t have the ability to report until they’ve been here and have contributed for a while.

Just got reported as well… quite a silly system.

can you give a screenshot of the comment, i’m very curious what offended probably DEI

it has nothing to do with politics, it’s responses in the freemium thread.

eg. mine:

or the one below me, but so were posts further up from CajunRob and others.

yeah, my bad, i thought it was for comments in the site, not the forum. But yes your point is valid, this was addressed many times and it has to be resolved.

The reporting is going crazy :confused:
