most sites have some sort of Report button, but GR is the only one where I have seen it used so often for needless reporting. |

The problem is in days gone by, the report button was needed, some comments where very disgusting, n disturbing, and needed to be gone, there and then, |

Interesting....so basically you all seem in agreement that it's nowhere near as bad as it used to be when there was a period when it was nasty. So is there really a need now ? Stop anyone that's being childish right now. |

Yes I know that's why I stopped looking on as often, but if there's really no call for it now why have it there just for a few to mess around. |

I don't think we'll ever get any changes made to GR now :-( |

All a reporter has to say is that they are upset or offended by a particular comment, or even better (or worse depending on your point of view) the comment is capable of causing upset. |

I had a completely innocuous thread zapped a few weeks ago, so they're still around. |

The problem is for the hundred RR not needed one mighht be! And for me it should stay, just because people deem the post RR'd innocent and not needed for review, someone might genuinely be upset or offended by it, and they have every right to ask Gr to reveiw it rather than say on the post and get lynched, just beccause there veiw is different to the majority. |

As Stray says it is needed. I am sure you wouldn't want a post to stay a second longer than necessary if it was racist, homophobic etc. |

I agree it should stay but think it should only be available to paying members. Then GR can take action against its misuse. |
