- argonaut 11y agoNo, only flagged stories that reach a certain threshold [number? quality?] of flags get a [flagged] tag.
- dang 11y agoThat's false. [flagged] is displayed when a story is flagged by enough users to be killed (closed to new comments). This story did receive that many flags, but we don't kill threads when they have a lot of comments, so in this case the flags demoted the article but didn't kill it. No moderator touched it or AFAIK even saw it until now. Edit: hmm this one got killed after I posted the above, which looks like a bug in the software. We've unkilled it now.
