Can users contact Mods about other members that have been posting mean things

[celticpride678]

I was wondering if it was OK to contact a Mod to be able to talk about a user posting things that are off-topic and not helping in threads, just posting? Thanks.

Oops. misread your post.


I suppose you could:

Things Not to Do

These are usually not instantly bannable - but will likely get you edited and/or warned.

1. Useless posts. Do not bother making posts with only one or two words (e.g., LOL) or a smilie, or post simply to have the first reply in a thread. Such posts waste everyone's time and will be deleted. Posts saying "I agree", "+1", "me too", or the equivalent are also routinely removed.
2. Off-topic posts. Off-topic posts will be deleted/edited. If you keep doing it see #5. Threads and posts on controversial political, religious, and social issues are to be limited to the Politics, Religion, Social Issues forum, and made only by those eligible for that forum.

Uh, that's what the report a post is for.

I understand that, but this user has been making many "you have no clue" and "you are ridiculous" posts.

Sounds like reportable posts to me.

So, report the posts. Problem solved.

You just have no clue. Really, j/k, don't report me!

Can I just tell the Mods about the user and help them go through his posts? There are a lot of them.

That's what I think I will do.

I dunno, there are a few members who seem to make it a point to say things like that. It's the internet and they're all insignificant to me so I typically shrug it off. Report a post if you're bothered, you know this.

Report one post as an example and mention they do it a lot.

I guess you've not reported posts before.

Sometimes I know it all to well
