Well, this latest feature to the forums might not show up for y'all, but let me tell you, behind the scenes it makes a huge difference! This mod will be used for reporting any double posts, offensive material, etc.

Basically, as the photos below show, all you have to do is open up the offending or double post, click the "report" button, and then tell us what the problem is. You don't have to provide a link to the double post itself, as the mod will do that automatically for us. It is, however, greatly helpful if you provide a link to the original post that was here first! That way we can merge the two topics quickly and painlessly.

Also, please do not reply to the double post with "hey, this is a double post!" or "use the search feature!" Just report it and we'll handle the rest.

So, to recap, All you need to do is tell us why you are reporting this and we'll take it from there. So simply, isn't it?!

Haha, good stuff. I really hope it helps cut down (and respond to!) some of the small problems we've had around here lately!

Yep. Dead freebies and double posts are the main problems I aim to combat with this system, so please submit anything you see that's wrong.
