    The vashikaran spam crap is not abuse, it is spam. Please flag it as such.

    Thank you everyone for flagging the spam - it is very helpful when you flag spam rather than reporting it. :)

    yes I hope they are reviewed by a mod before disappearing forever - was in a thread about milk this morning and some posters, including me, wrote what I thought were very reasonable points about human breast milk - and somebody flagged them as reports.
    -
    Not sure whether the reporter just disagreed with the posts or thought the word breast was inapproriate or the topic was taboo or what??? :s

    Yeah, I have one point on my account for abuse, I really can't figure out why though unless somebody disagreed with my opinion (and I write politely and don't curse etc ... oh well)

    I've been flagged for spam twice. Very strange.

    I am a real person, I swear!

    I've got 5 flags for spam and 51 abuse flags. It would be so helpful if we could click on the flags we get and it takes us straight to the posts in question. If I knew exactly what I get reported for, then maybe I could change something..

    Hey guys,
    Just to confirm, all posts that are flagged (including those that are flagged by 5+ people and hudden) go before the moderation team.

    Nothing is taken for granted as spam and if you end up being flagged because another member simply disagrees with you, it has zero consequence to yourself(it does waste a LOT of our time filtering through false spam reports though so, the act of flagging posts that you simply disagree with is frowned upon. Simply put, don't do it!).

    Keep flagging the spam.
    If everybody continues in doing as they are and flagging the actual spam topics, it keeps the forums a LOT cleaner for everybody!

    Have an awesome day!

    I would go so far as to insist for people NOT replying to spam posts, as they'll be more difficult to spot. Most spam posts, like the vashikarans, stick out, but the 0 replys make the less obvious more visible.

    Very good point, best to just click spam and not reply as shared. I'm here getting rid of them as quickly as I can. Lots tonight. Thanks all for helping out :)
