How many forum posts/comments do you flag per day?

Flag = Downvote

Its going to be fun when people eventually realize it

It’s going to take a lot of kicking and screaming before they will. As always things will get worse before they get better, if they ever do.

[Karkasy-wyrmrest-accord]

Generally only flag for hate speech/violence and when I feel that someone is breaking the rules of the forum or intentionally ragebaiting with politics/etc.

Wow forum poster - Someone is jaywalking. Please send the swat team.

Ohhh… Maybe the report function is a gateway swatting drug.

None because I’m not scared of words people type.

[Breadisfunny-turalyon (Breadisfunny)]

@Thugbug-dalaran

no one will post anything your tender little heart finds offensive.

thats the plan.

[Primalmatter-stormrage (Primalmatter)]

Sometimes for excessive spam and derailing I don’t know if I have enough for a daily average. Its usually when people try to end a conversation via gif wall.

[Doness-kargath (Doness)]

Depends how often I use the forum. I might report 10-20. Nothing happens though.

The Constitution allows you to speak up against your Govt and leaders without fear of being persecuted or jailed by the Govt. For now, we have that right

“For now” doing some heavy lifting considering where we’re headed.

[Trîçks-moon-guard]

None, I think I flagged 2 since 2009, flagging shouldn’t be a griefing tool and its not even that effective, do people really feel good about themselves for forcing others to click a “view post” button? Its 'Super easy, barely an inconvenience.

If I was a griefer I would want my victims to pull all their hair out and then cry themselves to sleep. I guess some are happy to just be a mild griefer.

I had a mild bully in junior high, sometimes he would just point at me.

[Thelei-stormrage]

Very few, and the days I do are normally sunday.

[Qamaits-darrowmere (Qamaits)]

√-1 times a day.

[Squeaksmcgee-area-52]

I don’t flag/report.

@Regretfulx-sargeras

I think around 5-7 per day for me. what about you guys?

Why exactly do you do this?

@Squeaksmcgee-area-52

Why exactly do you do this?

Most people online have a sinister desire to be a reddit janitor

@Dojacàt-moon-guard

Not surprising in the least bit.

I was making a joke referencing something often said by Two Best Friends Play.
You’d know what a joke is if you weren’t so focused on saying vile things about trans people here

[Squeaksmcgee-area-52]

I think it’d be smart of Blizzard to just get rid of the report/flag system but mostly because their ToS is too vague.

[Mirasol-mannoroth (Mirasol)]

@Squeaksmcgee-area-52

mostly because their ToS is too vague.

Pretend you are in a family friendly event around strangers, because that is what Blizzard considers the public portions of WoW. Meaning be nice, don’t insult/harass people, no profanity/masked profanity, slurs, hateful speech, spamming, trolling to get everyone fighting/upset, etc. When in doubt, don’t say it. Dinner party rules have always been to avoid politics, religion, and relationships if the host wants to avoid arguments.

Save the colorful stuff for friends/private chat.

[Squeaksmcgee-area-52]

I get all that. Thing is, some people don’t even understand what spamming is.

So as long as the report feature exists, it’s going to be abused.
I think they should either narrow down the reasons for reporting or just remove it entirely.

It’s too vague as it is.
