Anyone else feel sorry for the moderators?

concordancia

I see a lot of complaints about flagging and it seems like some people do it just for fun or stalk users to flag them. I just had a post flagged for spam. I included no links at all and had to re-read it twice to find that I had mentioned a brand name anything, and that was the totally free C25K program.

I have seen it suggested that people are confused and think the flag button is really a like button, but then you have to choose a reason, and all of the reasons are negative. Meanwhile, we have underaged, disordered eaters (and trolls) out there who are lasting way too long because the moderators are busy checking out all of these ridiculous flags. Not to mention the spammer who had time to start like 20 non sense threads the other day with their link in them. That truly was an art form of non sense.

Please, be kind to our moderators who have to review all these stupid flags!!

It's funny that your post got flagged

Yes, I never get the flags on some posts. Just seems random sometimes.
