Stop reporting posts you don't like! (You know who you are) (Page 1/25)
Cliff Pennock JUL 03, 11:59 AM
There's a certain member here, who resides in TO/T mostly, who keeps reporting posts "he doesn't like". Meaning he simply reports any post from any member he doesn't like. He told me once that he does this until I (as in me, Cliff Pennock) stop the vile nonsense going on here" (or something to that effect - I could look up his exact words if only I would care enough).

In the beginning I actually checked out every single post he reported until I noticed the earlier said pattern. Since then, I simply ignore everything he reports.

Just to give you an indication how dedicated he is: since the inception of the reporting system (august 2016) he has reported 10,978 posts averaging over 1,200 posts per month.

And apparently, he is upping his average. In the past 20 minutes, he reported 87 posts!

Okay, you know who you are. I know for sure you are reading this. You can continue reporting posts if you like, but I just wanted you to know they simply get ignored now.

87 posts in 20 minutes ??

Frick, how does anybody read that fast ?

It blows my mind the amount of time people have on their hands to devote to what is essentially a huge waste of time.

You sure that isn't a bot? 12,000 reports in a year? Can't be human.

This is the mindset of many. Even though it seems completely outrageous in the minds of normal folk, it is completely "within my rights" to many an ill person.

I believe that I accidentally reported a post the other evening. I was on my phone, and my fingers were like sausages. I was going to leave a comment as to what happened, but it was such an out of context report, that I just let it go. I also believe that this was the first report that I have ever done.

I am not going to express my opinion on just who I may think it is, but I do have one.

No doubt he uses the rating system the same way.

I'm actually stumped.
I can't for the life of me think of who it could it be.

Would this person admit to it?

Any ideas?

This is gonna' drive me crazy, now...

P.S. I wonder if i'm this persons No. 1 complaint?

Just gave Cliff a positive for hosting us.

Should have thought of it years ago, but never did. Just stupid I guess.
