Joined today, and I suspect it's ORT reborn. But the link in moderation is irrelevant to IT - it's a christian loony site again - so I'm going for spammer this time.

I'm sure someone will buy it for you for Christmas.

Was that the only "abusive" comment they did? If so, it is inappropriate to post this message in this forum. The message itself has a flag to mark it as abusive which is what should have happened.

Why is it inappropriate? This is the "Spam and Abuse" forum.

From the sticky post above, emphasis added on my part:Quote: The spam and abuse forum is a place to report content that may have slipped past other members. To have content removed, multiple members need to report a piece of content (or a member's account) and so if you find something abusive, or that is spam, hidden in a seldom visited corner of the site you can report it here so others can review and report (and hence close) if necessary.
As pointed out earlier, the message itself has a flag on it to mark as abusive.
My real problem is that, in my opinion, that was hardly an abusive comment. If you look at it from their point of view, they came here to get help and you told them to go somewhere else. Granted, I agree with your comment and would have told them the same thing. But OP replying "no thanks for that "smart-ass" noise" hardly seems worth banning the user from the site. Surely we can be more thick-skinned than that.
If you had just posted a link to the message and claimed abuse and not a link to their profile I would not have had any problem with it. There is a sense in this forum that no rude remarks are allowed yet we have several members who abuse others in the Lounge all the time that no one cares about. I am not pointing fingers at you, just stating that it is common for the standard to be much higher for newbies than for those who have been around for a while. I wish we were much more forgiving and not so quick to ban people. This is an open site, not a club.

It wasn't the OP, it was someone else and this was their first and only comment after a year and a bit of being a member. So hardly a contributor to the site.
As to being thick-skinned, I could not care less what people call or say about me, I merely report the fact that the messager is being abusive.

I posted a link to both, so everyone could see and make up their own minds. And it would appear that 9 other members agreed and voted him/her off. If you feel that was wrong you can appeal to Chris.

As I pointed out earlier, this should be irrelevant but is often the determining factor.
Richard MacCutchan wrote: I merely report the fact that the messager is being abusive.
But I never see you report the ones in the Lounge from our certain famous members who get away with much worse and quite often.
Richard MacCutchan wrote: And it would appear that 9 other members agreed and voted him/her off.
There is no way you believe that all 9 of them actually did their due diligence. We all know people just come in and start reporting, trusting that the reporters did their due diligence.

It does not work.

The Lounge is a different forum, and some abuse is acceptable there. This was brought to my attention some time ago by 'himself' when I suggested a certain Australian was going a bit far.

That is hardly my problem, it's the way the site works.

Not true, I see many issues where Chris has responded to requests from the community.

Yes, proving my earlier point.
Richard MacCutchan wrote: That is hardly my problem
I knew that would be your answer. Not a criticism, but simply a cop-out.

Well your first sentence in this post proved my point as well as I have reached out to him before, and nothing.
Again, I suggest we be much more forgiving and much less trigger happy.
