    Posts suggesting scale weight gain after 2ish weeks is because muscle weighs more than fat.

      Frivolous reporting.

      Stalking for anything other than the fun of stalking.

      Wearing too much clothing in pictures.

      But if you took a cup of muscle and a cup of fat........Just messing with you.


      I think they should at least limit the amount of reports you can make in a day. I think it would cut down on vindictive reporting.

      Saying anyone or anything is trying to sabotage you.

      This is not World War II. You are not a munitions-loaded train.

      One strike for reporting something because you're butthurt.

      Two strikes for reporting something because you're butthurt if you've previously told someone to get thicker skin.

      Three strikes for reporting a topic that is "against the guidelines" if you've previously contributed to topics "against the guidelines".

      1 Strike for each reply you make in a thread rejecting the sound advice you asked for in the initial post and received.
    • Posts: 3,927 Member
      For starting threads about gross bodily functions that clearly require medical attention.
    • Posts: 1,216 Member
      Any thread that starts with "why do/are men..."/"why do/are women..." or "real men..."/"realwomen..." or any other statement generalizing everyone into a neat little box.

      - any mention of any "get thin quick" product featured on Dr. Oz.
      - any mention of black licorice
      - any mention of politics and/or religion designed to cause heated debate
      - frivolous reporting solely undertaken to get somebody you don't like banned
      - "loose" vs. "lose"
      - gratuitous use of the word "journey"
      - "they're" vs. "their" vs. "there"

      When someone comes into an epic debate thread on page 10 or higher and just simply and matter-of-factly answers the OP. That is unacceptable! Can't they see we're arguing here!

      -Anything mentioning 1200 calories. Ever.

      -Posts about mice

      Who takes this stuff seriously enough to report someone in the first place? I guess if someone is harassing you all the time or something.

      Intarnet is seriousss!

      Derailing a thread to flirt with another user who lives on the other side of the nation because their profile pic is "hot" (Actually I wish all forums gave strikes for this. I'm not anti-sex but COME ON!) Doesn't count in threads that have no actual topic.

      Telling people that what works for them isn't important or valid for whatever reason, usually because it's not what works for you. (I saw a fun thread recently where people were getting butthurt because some people avoid foods they might binge on whereas some people will eat anything in moderation. Different strategies for different brain types.)

      Obvious trolling.

      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Isn't that the truth!^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

      Once you get on someone's bad side, they seem 'blank' bent on getting you banned and reporting you...for no reason at all other than to get you off the site because they disagree with your POV.

      The ridiculous "Men/women - what do you think of..." "How should women act on a date?" OH MY GOD. It kills me.

      Unless the against the guidelines topic you are reporting are one of those really dangerous ones that really needs to go - remember the girl posting all the anorexic pictures and telling the girls how to do that?

      Asking why you've gained X pounds this week despite doing everything right and you have a closed diary. Love that.

      Posting a "what counts as water" thread.

      Speaking of which, when I take a shower can I count that as 1 1/2 cups of water?! Surely I absorb some, right? :laugh:
