Keep up the good work @Blackhole_but_he_forgot_his_password!
I donāt mean any offence either, but someone is still flagging all my posts when theyāre remotely negative.
That, I have no idea about.
I spoke to grazer about maybe limiting flags to a certain role. The ability for anyone to just delete someone elseās message when it makes them unhappy is too much power to give to just anyone.
Like only trust level 3 / regulars?
Probably something else, weāll see.
I have never flagged anybody.
I did it like twice when I first discovered it was a thing, but itās such a rude move considering you donāt even know who did it. Itās like someone slapping you while you were blindfoldedā¦
Yeahā¦ there is a way to tell themā¦ I COULD demonstrateā¦ but I do not feel like flagging youā¦
Is that the amount of flags? Sorry, it is so small I can not see it.
Thatās just my messages, actually. And itās all flagsā¦
While I believe that Agent_Y has been complaining a little too much on this topic and a few others, I do not think that the flags made against him were appropriate or necessary.
Flagging should only be done to let the moderators know that the post in question has broken the forum rules. This includes things like inappropriate content, spamming, bullying, off-topic, etc. Flagging a post simply because you donāt like it or donāt agree with it seems like flag misuse, and you can be punished for that.
I donāt think that the flag function should be restricted to a particular trust level, but I believe that there should be stricter rules to prevent or discourage flag misuse, such as removing that userās ability to flag posts temporarily or permanently.
I have read and reread some of Agent_Yās posts that ended up being flagged and found nothing in them that would warrant a flag. Whoever is flagging his posts, make sure you have a very, very, very good reason to do so, otherwise you might get someone in trouble for little reason. Or you might put yourself in trouble, too.
Agreed. I have found some of @Agent_Y 's post that were flagged even though there was not one thing wrong with it, but there are some posts that could be flagged, but I do not like to flag, and have never done so.
Iāve only flagged about three or four times, and those posts were later deleted and the posters got banned. I donāt like to flag people either, but I only do so when those posts genuinely break the rules.

STOP FLAGGING THINGS THAT ARE NOT NEEDED TO BE FLAGGED.
cough cough, 10 year oldsā¦
So, Iād just like to say that the entire OTA has been flagging or messaging Grazer about Agent Y. I have flagged maybe five of Agentās posts the last few months. Itās 30 people.
Iāve flagged a few that were way out of line, but I donāt flag every single comment he posts. There might be an imposter in our midst, but idk who it would be.
I did flag one post on here. I assume itās everyone.
Seriously?
Agent_Y is innocent, and hasnāt said anything breaking ANY guidelines, nor has he done any of the reasons that is needed to be flagged. I donāt see why people flag him for having an opinion and giving advice? Whether itās rude or not, just take the advice.
Heck, I give rude advice a lot, but I expect people to still accept the advice rather than get defensive about something.
