You'll notice a little "FLAG" link next to each post. Use this to report an abusive post or user.

PLEASE DON'T ABUSE THIS FEATURE.

Thanks

I clicked it. That was cool.

If we had a button to flag content that is either too absurd or dangerously humorous, Mark Nelson would quickly be banned. (Maybe even prosecuted.)
½Nelson: consider yourself on notice.

bastards!

anyway can you guys add another one: "Flag -- but I'm from Boulder"?

Greg, that's persecuted. Or "linguistically cleansed" as they would say on pearl street.

Andy -- move the flag away from the quote button or you're gonna get flagged more than quoted! In the heat of forum battle; flag! 15 yards, unsportswomanlike

There is a popup to prevent that (try it), but if I knew HTML better I'd move it to the lower, right. Just got to google a little to find the answer ;)

I'll stand by 'prosecuted'. I see a civil case brewing over how many times you've caused other MPcommers to spew drinks out of their noses. Class action, even.

Are ones "flags" recorded like the "positive contributions"? And are points deducted when you're flagged?
If you're flagged, and it is recorded, can you delete the contribution and start with a fresh slate. . . or are drunken rantings always held over ones head?
I may finally get some recognition on this site!

Can we have a "Drama Queen" button too?

Why is it a flag anyway? That's so sporty. I think it should be a gavel, like when the committee chair calls you out of order!

C'mon Andy, you know nerds know gavels better than they know flags...

LOL...and L and L! Guideline #1 heads EVERY post, and look how that turns out. You think your puny little polite request posted once will move a molecule?!

LOL some more! :)

Yikes! Andy's request not to abuse is so Quixotic I was going to flag it as inappropriate. But a pop-up warned that abuse would result in account SUSPENSION. Now there's a guillotine!

And on that.... OFF WITH HIS HEAD!

Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
