It seems particularly valuable for guidelines on when it's appropriate to flag a post to appear before you flag a post, and for a reason to be given for each flag.
Abuse of the flagging feature seems to be a big part of the problem here.
- ISL 13y agoAbusing the flag seems to result in losing your ability to flag. I think that problem is addressed silently.
- fusiongyro 13y agoI have tried to be careful to only flag the NSA stories that are overtly and unhelpfully political, or rehash content on other stories, precisely for this reason.
- DanBC 13y agoWhy do you assume that flagging is being abused? That's clearly one viewpoint - rightly upvoted submissions are being wrongly flagged. But some people would say that wrongly upvoted submissions are being rightly flagged. I'd be really interested to see a breakdown by age of account for different viewpoints.
