How does one report a bad thread?
I don't see the "report" button any more.

Also, what can we do about someone who has an offensive name?

I think I know the thread and user you're that you mean. I merged it into another in the spoilers that had the same info. The user name hasn't been officially turned on yet, so we should be able to do something there. I'll look for the report button... not sure where it went.

In the meantime, thanks for posting this cause it helped me find the culprit.

How to report:

View user public profile, select "Give Infraction", then complete the information. User will then be notified to change behavior and the situation can be monitored.

Wouldn't clicking on the red-encircled-triangular-exclamation-mark-thingy on the top right hand corner of each post achieve a similar goal. I reported a post that way..one in the Hogwarts Express a day or two ago.

Oh. It is there.
A triangle thingie with a red border.
You have to wave your wand over it for
it to say "report post" or whatever it says.

It just needs to be easier to find.

Go ahead, report me!!

I just tried testing the system by reporting myself to me.
The thread, "Real life collegiate quidditch!" has nothing wrong with it, but I reported it.
The message should have come to me by now.
Maybe I can't report myself.

If anyone wants to help, please find and click the little triangle thingie with a red border,
at the top right of each post. Then write a simple message, like
"Just testing the system for Psyduck."

Thank you for your cooperation.

Nope, it's not working.
Now what?

You current regulars can just send me an owl if you see a problem.
But no one else will know to do that.
