If blizzard wants no one to ever report anyone on this forum, they will take your advise and start punishing people. Otherwise, if a bunch of people all think there is something wrong enough with your post for it to be buried, maybe you should be questioning why.
Also, be very careful of just looking at a post and thinking a post was false flagged - people can edit the post without it looking like it was edited if they do it fast enough.
And what makes you think youâre being falsely reported?
I hope everyone does their part and flags this thread lol.
Like someone pointed out earlier (that posted the TOS), I canât talk about my own example in this post, or I will be reported. So I am not going to take that bait lol.
I think you should open a ticket and ask this question. I do not think youâre going to get the answer you want from the moderators by putting it here. Youâre certainly not going to get an answer from the rest of the forum posters because weâre not moderators so we donât know what they do about âfalse flaggersâ for certain.
And my post was already reported as spam. This is the exact example of people false flagging others that donât agree with their own view point. Instead of furthering discussion, people just try to silence others and abuse the system. Hopefully a GM can look at this post and determine that it isnât spam, and it also isnât the first one to be created on this topic. False flagging is something that is done on these forums, and also in game to silence others and should be addressed like on the public forums.
Huh? I mean, Iâve had a LOT of my comments reported. Like, a LOT. But never was I actioned until a mod took a look at it.
This is definitely happening. The people who run it are terrible bullies.
My post being false flagged right now, should be all the example needed to determine that this is in fact, a growing issue. Hopefully the people that just abused the report system will have to face the repercussions.
This forum is about the discussion of World of Warcraft, not your disdain for the way flagging works and operates.
Go to the customer service forum or submit feedback to Blizzard via the proper channels.
I think the flag system works just fine. If itâs been flagged, the mods will take a look and decide what to do. In the meantime, if I want to read the flagged content - I can. Itâs barely an inconvenience and it keeps the forums cleaner.
Oh so the hundreds of political posts on these forums in general is ok, but my post about a system that is being abused (just like what happened to Asmongold in game) is not relevantâŚOkâŚ
Glad we cleared that up.
Are we done here?
This is so far from the truth. You are delusional. Though there are certainly some abusers, they are a minority.
I think most people here donât appreciate their posts being hidden and flagged. Obviously someone things a post is against the tos or might be malicious and just flagging because they disagree or dislike.
Many people agree with you but we all also dontâ agree on what the definition of âtrollingâ or âspammingâ is. Thatâs up to the mods.
Gm, ty for restoring my post and affirming that it was not spam. Hopefully, we can get some dialogue in this post instead of people trying to shut it down.
pretty clear you donât want dialogue
you only want an echo chamber
It just happened in my post, I was just reported as spam, and then a GM had to restore it. Coincidence 
? I think not.
Human paladin
I called it
You owe me 20 bucks
Sounds like the system worked just fine, then?
