in taking down a recent thread on atheism/ religion which contained no insulting or abusive comments.

Kindly advise exactly what you objected to .

We need to know precisely what you find objectionable to informed philosophical and adult debate .
This is 'chit chat' - and that is what we were doing.

Please answer- and if any other forumites would like an answer- please sign in here.

This was answered the other day

Apparently, if 3 people click 'report thread' the thread will disappear and that's that. It saves on staffing costs.

So the moderator does not remove the thread ,object to the thread , or even have an opinion or even any knowledge it ever existed.

So no point directing enquiries their way.

but there is an opinion, the bright spark that decided to implement the policy.

That is a bollocks system.

Still, who were the three that reported it? Have the Holy Trinity signed up to Betfair?

it was the three wise men that objected, saying they didn;t buy jesus all that bling to have his opinions trashed.

i reported the thread as 'silly' and it does indeed ask for a reason why plus explanation.

confirmation is "Your flag has been submitted and will be reviewed by an administrator shortly."

i think someone still reviews them, they'll maybe get notified when a thread reaches a tipping point, but not automatic.

As it was explained to me , the individual reports are reviewed by someone , but 3 reports cause deletion automatically

I think it was a betfair e mail to someone that set this out ,after they queried what was happening with their posts/threads .They posted it up on Politics but i can't c&p as that thread was deleted as well Crazy

Are people clicking the yellow triangle for this thread on the Chit Chat Home Page ?

If they are , then this theory is looking shaky tbh
By:

i used the report link in the original post.
By:

i checked them both, they're exactly the same.
By:

When: 10 Aug 13 23:48
on the home page are the 'report thread' triangles , which go yellow if you hover over them

I think report post would just remove opening post if 3 people did that

I have never hit the report button yet but I am more than willing to help out in this case...after posting this post I will report the thread...stand by for thread oblivion...or not..Laugh

Hold that thought...billybob oz has saved the day with the third report.
By:

As Erse says , maybe the 3 reports just flag a thread up to the moderator . But if he sees it is 6 pages long he thinks fk trawling through all that and just hits delete

There are no report buttons on the Classic forum.

It's for all you kids to play with on the Beta forum.
