The report function is granted to all users who are on TL for over a year and those who have purchased TL+. Users with this function are entitled to report posts that violate the rules of the TeamLiquid forum. Please read these tips for how to best make use of this feature:
- Report anything that is a direct violation of the ten commandments, that is harmful to the forums, or that violates subforum or thread specific rules. Examples include flaming, posting links to hacks, advertising, and balance whine in Live Report threads.
- Select the appropriate reason from the drop down menu when reporting. If you need to enter an explanation please make sure the reason is clear so moderators can quickly assess the situation and deal the appropriate action. Please don't just select "Other" because it lets you type something in, using one of the predefined options allows us to moderate far more efficiently.
- Don't report someone who you have a personal gripe with or whom you are currently involved in an argument with. Let a third party report them if they are indeed in violation of the rules.
- If you repeatedly submit improper reports your privilege to report posts will be taken away.
- If you have questions about reporting you can ask them here.
Remember, the report button is a not a right, but a privilege. With it you can help us make sure the forums stay clean, polite and accessible but with it comes the responsibility of not making more work for us.

I'd be curious to see a screenshot of what, exactly, moderators see when a post gets reported. Does the TL.NET bot generate a post in a special thread? Or do reports go into some sort of moderation queue where whenever a moderator looks at a report it gets marked as having been read?

Yes, but once the report system upgrade is complete you will be able to see your own stats yourself as well

I think if it were to say "ignore this jackass" then you wouldn't see a report button.
Edit: or maybe they shadow-ban reporting for users :D

There are a few things with the new report function that I want to give some feedback for.
First the line "If you are reporting spoilers, do not include a copy of the spoiler in your reason. Just describe it, eg "unaired [tournament] spoiler"." could be removed since we don't get to write anything under the "spoiler" option.
Second, the option to rename/move/etc should have a small text filter to give a renaming suggestion. here I am mostly thinking about "Rage during LoL game, face 8 years in prison" ( http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=419471 ) where it actually was a Facebook post and that the more interesting part is that he already have been jailed for 4 months. The max punishment is seldom relevant.

Just a minor nitpick, but one of the options on the report menu is listed as, "Caster / player/ game bashing". It should be "Caster / player / game bashing", with an extra space between the word "player" and the forward slash.

Report function needs a "PBU" option

Not really. The only people who can definitively say that a particular user is a PBU are moderators, admins, and Banlings. It doesn't make much sense to allow normal users who lack the tools to detect PBUs the option to report them. The amount of false positives would make the feature too unreliable to be worth having. Besides, most PBUs give themselves away either through shitty posting or admitting in some way that they're PBUs. The former can be reported for standard shitposting, and the latter can be reported under "Other" citing their self-identification as PBUs.
Overall, a "PBU" report reason would make more work for TL staff than is necessary. Leave the PBU-hunting to the mods.
