Unhinged Postings

[admin]

I would like to acknowledge that some stuff posted in the past seemed unhinged and perhaps indicative of clinically depressed posters.

This forum exists to help men restore and help people coordinate efforts to fight male, female, and intersex forced genital cutting.

I see and review all new threads EXCEPT those in Progress Galleries. If we see anything that has the potential to harm intactivism, or to prevent cut men from finding restoring help, or that indicates a self-harm situation unfolding, we should use the flag symbol in the lower right to call it to the attention of moderators.

The person that worries me the most writes hundreds of words per post and has amassed 40 pages of paranoid drivel and has not, it seems, ever been challenged as to his motives. In the main what he writes is dark surreal nonsense. There is scant mention of restoration but the topics of killing and of rape figure constantly. Following the admin directions and looking at the bottom right of his posts for the "flag", it is not there. Unhinged describes this person perfectly, where is the flag when you need it?

Here is a picture showing where I find the Flag option:

No flag visible here under any posts in the Progress Galleries section. Edited to add that I use the Firefox web browser.

OK, now I've logged in using Firefox and I see the option to flag posts, even in the Progress Galleries section. So I'm stumped.

On my android phone in Firefox, I just checked in galleries and see no flag option. It is there in other sections of the site.

I blocked a user because I was tired of seeing said dribble and nonsense.

In private messages the user came up in discussion before I blocked him. We wondered why his posts were allowed in the forum. Now I can see others have had the same thoughts about it.

Wow that's worrying. It's possible I've read past the person you speak of but admittedly I generally for the most part skip past really lengthly/wordy posts thus likely missed the sinister posts mentioned. But I had my suspicions and went back and quickly saw the posts mentioned. It's the kinda stuff you hear about on the news. I too am concerned he is allowed to make posts here. PM sent to admin as the flag is not present

If you don't see the option to flag, I guess people could copy-paste a link to something they are concerned about and PM it to Admin.

[WoodyHoody]

Still no flag. How can I block him?

[forescore]

User settings > account > scroll to the bottom

I would expect moderators to ban such even if no-one clicks a flag!

Since you are admin cain't you do something?

Precisely my point
