Reporting Objectionable Content

Postby jimh » Fri Apr 24, 2020 1:24 pm

If any content on the website strikes you as inappropriate, off topic, or objectionable, please use the reporting feature of the forum software to report the content to a moderator.

The reporting feature is initiated by using a small icon that appears on the upper right panel of all posts. The icon is an exclamation point:

Icons which appear in all posted forum articles.

Clicking on the exclamation point icon will lead to a form that can be used to report inappropriate content. The form will offer four reasons for the report:

  • The message contained pirated software
  • The reported message has the only purpose to advertise for a website or another product.
  • The reported message is off topic.
  • The reported message does not fit any category; please use the further information field
A text field will allow entry of additional information.

Only registered users you are logged-in to the forum will see the exclamation point icon and be able to report objectionable content.

This feature of the forum has always been available. This article is just a reminder of the feature.
