(TL;DR at the bottom)
Hello! Welcome to V1.5 of my idea!
From what I see nowadays, I think we could use report options, like the ones in-game.
These options would include spam, trolling, 'violation of WNTS', and necro-bumping. It would basically be report options with check-boxes.
The 'spam' would mean over suggested ideas and bad grammar/spelling.
The 'trolling' would mean VERY bad ideas and inappropriate threads.
The 'violation of WNTS' would mean breaking one of the rules on the WNTS thread. But this rule would only be included in the S&I forum.
If someone bumps a really old thread, it would count as necro-bumping.
This would be helpful for legitimate forumers (and new forumers) to report bad and inappropriate threads.
You should also be able to add a *picture (COMPLETELY OPTIONAL)) to show what the thread creator did wrong.
*The picture would have to be a PNG/JPEG (JPG, JPEG, etc.), PDF would be too large of a format.
So basically, I'm suggesting a new report system in the forums that's like the one in-game, but with check-boxes.
Thank you for reading my thread! Please post any comments, concerns, or flaws.

Sounds pretty good. You have my support.
But, I have a question.
Why this? I don't see any problems with just typing in the report box what the user did wrong rather then a Check box. |

@Spooky Because most of the newer users tend to report according to opinion. So if someone they dislike posts a thread, they report him for unfair reasons.
EXAMPLE:
Bob: *Makes an epic idea* Joe: *Is a new S&Ier and dislikes Bob* Bob: *Gets 9001 supports* Joe: *Reports Bob for being a 'show off'* Bob: *Gets banned because of a bias report* Joe: Umg the n00b gutz baned!!11!!! imma go repot ovar 9000 uddr pplz!!1!!1!!11!!!1
See what I mean?

| Support, but Necrobumping isn't a crime and it's good when you see a good suggestion then you bump it. Even if it's really old. |

@Turbo What if it's a thread from 2007-2009? Then it's just really old and it would be pointless to give feedback as the OPer is most likely dormant/quit.

We don't need to add pictures to the report, if the moderator can already see the post/reply/thread.
I like using the report options, along with the comments we can already attach now. |

@Mikkel They can?! I thought you give them a report and they look through a log kind of thing (Tonykaree13 12:38 PM: *******) and they determine to ban the player!

| How do you think moderators decide to use their moderator actions if they cannot see the post/reply/thread? :/ |
