System flags

I just told someone else this, but it’s good advice: don’t drink and post.

They needed more attention, I guess? They ran out of fake politeness? I’m not sure. But it’s definitely interesting to watch.

yeah…I feel your pain with that poster…but better to ignore them than get a vacation.

It doesn’t really matter. If Forum Moderators decide to take action based on the flags, they will let you know which post. Otherwise, the flags just fall off in 24 hours.

Flags don’t fall off. I still have hidden posts from years ago.

False flaggers should be flagged, and lose all flag privilege’s.

False flagging can absolutely get you vacationed.

Hmmm… I’ve see posts that were flagged and then visible the next day. So that is why I said that. Maybe sometimes the moderators clear them then.

Personally, I don’t actively flag topics that I disagree with. I just mute and move on.

I don’t want a vacation, I want them deported. No more entry.

False flagging is the most toxic thing you can do aside from being flag worthy horrible.

That’s when mods remove the flags. They don’t wear off on their own, though.

Reckon tonight’s been just one guy going off?

Pretty unusual to have this many volatile threads at once.

Heck, sometimes you don’t ever have this many active threads total

I can’t see what this other ’ person ’ said that you’re replying to, since they are on ignore.
But, I know the name though. The reason I ignored them, is that all they do is poke and prod, and instigate. In an effort to cause the other person to do what you just did.
We don’t need account wide ignore. We just need people to stop being lazy and just ignore as they need to.

Oh, no sympathy for you if you get a vacation by the way.
You kinda deserve it.

Edit:
Even after saying I ignored them… they still felt the need to reply to me…
I have no words… :man_facepalming:

yeah, sometimes the forum software bugs out and I’ll get stuff from months ago or sometimes Ithink it just says stuff like that and Im not even sure it supposed to belong to me at all.

This is what happens when you go with crap software options. lol

People either learn from their mistakes or end up perma banned. I’ve known of a few who got that far for mass flagging on alts and one who wouldn’t stop using the flag button as a dislike and also got perma banned after a while.

Literally all I did was ask them to re-write a completely unintelligible post lol

Not that you’ll see this, but it’s a good example of your hyperbole in either case.

Wait. There were actually people who got banned for abusing the flag system? I always thought that was a myth.

For that comment, on a post about false flags…I almost feel bad having to defend a proper position…in this…position.

VERY well stated.
Thats EXACTLy what that one and that small group they show up with do when theyre in here. Troll and bait to get a response, then coordinate flag bombings to get someone actioned.
Its why they WONT put us on ignore…they WANT to see what we’re saying so they can try to provoke a response…which is why they HATE it when you ignore them and cant see their baiting. lol

They come down hard on people who swap alts to double flag things, I’ve heard.

Tinfoil is on a bit tight there, compadre.

Nobody cares about you enough to do that.

There’s also no such thing as “flag bombing”. A post can only be flagged three times before it goes hidden and can’t be flagged further. It’s not hard for three people to see something inappropriate and think “hmm, that’s inappropriate”

Alt multi flagging is one thing, I want people with a record of one flag for every post definitely not needing one being punished. Flagging out of disagreement, or you just don’t like a person is kind of pathetic and should be monitored.
