Is Something Being Done About the False Flaggers of These Forums?

Seems like you’re pretty ticked off that you were RIGHTFULLY flagged and now want to complain for being called out.

We need a downvote button that doesn’t fade out the post. I think that may solve part of it.

I think you’re wrong also. None of us know how many people flag posts because they disagree but it certainly doesn’t seem like ‘most people’ like you claimed.

I mean do you use reddit? That’s how subcultures form because people downvote what they don’t agree with, and so those people get pushed out of the sub and you’re left with an echochamber.

I think the GD is still pretty balanced in that regard. I’d say majority of the time the right posts get flagged, and I’ve also seen threads that were wrongly flagged be unflagged via mod discretion.

But I wasn’t rightfully flagged, and is the premise on why I made this post lol.

But you weren’t silenced. You won’t be silenced unless a mod does it.

Yes I was, I was silenced for a day and had to be restored through a GM ticket.

Wow you one-upped me within the span of like 5 seconds :joy:

Great minds think alike though :ok_hand:

ok… and?

Do you want blizzard to hire mods to sit behind each person on the forums and stop them from flagging a post before they click that button?

I imagine there is only an automated silence if it receives something extreme, like 50 reports.

nah I saw yours first, it was such a good reference I had to post the video just in case there’s someone out there who hasn’t seen it.

People who use their alts to mass report to silence opposing viewpoints is an example of abusing the system.

You vastly overestimate how much effort people are putting into these forums if you think they are conspiring to cycle through all their alts just to silence you.

I think it is far more likely that you in fact said something insensitive, and many different people actually flagged your post.

Why do you care this much about being flagged?

TRanslation : Rules don’t apply to OP . MHPs are above the rules

Post history matters.

Again, this post isn’t even about me. It is funny that people keep trying to bring me up as the main focus.

I think I have pointed out before how your original post mentioned you being flagged for a “song lyric.”

I think your post history indicates you complaining about posting a song lyric in the trans-rights thread.

Context matters
