Add "Report post" to the forum.

[Suggestion]

June 15, 2008 8:15:16 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Either I am blind, or the forum is lacking a proper report function. I think that the Stardock mods needs a better MCP, and for users to report post more easierly. With the official release of Impulse, the traffic will increase alot.

I hope with the future stages of Impulse, the forum will be upgraded to a proper solution. E.g. IP.Board, vBulletin, etc.

It's probably something we'll soon see anyways, as it *is* indeed a useful function.

I take it the button that says 'Report' just to right of the thumbs up button (to give karma) is just decoration and has no function at this time?



... started to click it just to see what would happen but didn't want to report Bebi

Hum yeah it is there, although it isn't there for the first post in a thread. Being able to report that would be helpful, for all those "buy nike, armani, blah blah" spam threads.

Thought it might be under the "Tools" menu in the first post, but nothing happens when I click on it.

Ahh damn! I did not notice that. Not sure IE loaded the image when I wrote the post originally.

Does it really works?

Very well.  About 20 Stardockians get an email with a link to the post and the reporters description of the problem.  It's taken very seriously from a very high level.  (I wouldn't recommended testing it.  )

That is what I mean about a proper MCP. It is easier to have the reports, mods options gathered in one place. Rather then everyone getting a email each time there is a new report.

If there is an issue . . they want to know right away.

It's coming. No ETA, but it's coming.  For now if you see a post that is spam or some such, make a quick reply and then report your own reply. I know its hackey, but it works for the time being.

Can you actually do this?

When I make a comment I see the report button on every comment on a thread except my own.
