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.

Guess I shoulda made it a wink, I was being facetious in light of being called out by a PBU in the ABL

What about that? I'd love to have such feature.

Would it be possible to make the text space for the report reason bigger than just one line? It's annoying when one presses enter out of habit and then the report gets sent before you are finished writing.

A similar suggestion is to confirm the submitting of a report. I know a few cases where I went to report something and hit enter before I finished.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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 let's you type something in, using one of the predefined options allows us to moderate far more efficiently.
  3. 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.
  4. If you repeatedly submit improper reports your privilege to report posts will be taken away.
  5. 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.

The comment box went away for everything but "Other". Why?

Why do people that contribute to TL have report immunities?
Example: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=439685&currentpage=22#436

People that contribute should still be held to a standard and when people see that they have some sort of immunity, it causes chaos and power trips. Not only this guy, but others eventually will insult and troll with no action being done to them.
Life?

The best bet in cases such as you've pointed out is to PM a banling and let them know what's going down.

Could we have the report button on own posts as well? So if you accidentally posted a reply in the wrong thread, you could report your own post and hopefully someone would delete it.

Eh, it's not really necessary. Just edit your post, remove all the text, and replace it with something like "Posted in wrong thread" or whatever.

I think being allowed to report a mod/staff should be looked into. Calling out a single post that should probably be called out is not possible at this moment. No one is perfect, and a little ego-checking isn't a bad thing. Just a thought...

You can PM another mod if you think a staffer went overboard.
