amh210 Posted May 29, 2006 Share Posted May 29, 2006 Dear Admin Team,:)9 Can you please post the link to the Objectionable Posts forum so I can see some samples of what I'm supposed to object to? It's hard to know when to press the soon-to-be-repaired button without some samples. I've been told I'm pretty good about pressing other peoples buttons so I hope that skill transfers well to this context. If the Objectionable Posts forum is really good, admins can password protect it and issue the passwords only to FPNers who meet certain standards, i.e., number of posts, percentage of Objectionable Posts contributed, and demonstrated ability to get the nib out of a "51" without damaging the pen, nib, or finger. So much of FPN is wonderful I think the Objectionable Posts forum could be one of our most popular features. BTW, Please don't tell me to check out some other Pen Boards to see some Objectionable Posts. I'm loyal to the gang here!

Elaine Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 It seems the button is working again. I just missed my big chance to be objectionable and go unpunished...I think I’m gonna use it to communicate with our moderators... As far as I can tell the report button is still not working. Also, I know you're just kidding, but many times that a post is reported it's not a matter of someone trying to be rude, and we don't "punish". In the recent case, it's a matter of opinion on whether a joke was offensive or not. These things are often so hard to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
