Forum:System abuse with spoilers

Okay, Nitrome updating their website may have fixed a lot of problems, but some new ones took their place. One of the new trends right now are the Spoiler Trolls. People make their comments spoilers even though their contents are just spam. This is something we should report as "System Abuse". Now just because you're not a mod, doesn't mean you can't do anything. Now I request that all of us take a move with this. If atleast most of us will report the spam, then hopefully the spam rate will decrease. Now I'm not saying that we ho around suggesting to be mods, the report comment button is free for everyone to use for a reason. If you see spoiler that contains offensive material or spam, report it as System Abuse. If you see an offensive comment, don't just ignore it, report the comment for profanity or bullying. Now you may be asking, what are the parameters of what kind of comment should I report? Now actually, we're people, not robots. There are no specific scientific parameters on what to report, we just use our common sense and assume good faith. Now its important that you politely send a message to the user whose comment you reported. It's important that you do not aggregate the user for they'll only complain and won't understand the message. Just tell him or her in the simplest words as possible what they have done and that they should avoid doing it again. But if this person still disagrees and goes off causing more trouble, then it's time that you ask a mod to deal with the situation or you could contact Nitrome by E-Mail. I am not saying that this is 100% guaranteed to work, but that doesn't mean we should sit here doing nothing. -- 22:48, February 18, 2015 (UTC)
