who here keeps on 'reporting' questions? I hate it when someon posts a stupid but funny thing on here, and everyone overreacts and reports it so it gets deleted. It's stupid! Someone just tries to give us a good laugh, and everyone gets mad for 'wasting their time'. Gosh if you don't want to see it, don't post mean answers and don't report it unless its perverted, spam, or stuff like that

I think if people stick to the rules there should be no need to report any one. Don't use foul language, etc, just have a laugh and enjoy using the site for what it is there for. Happy New Year To All

I agree with you. But I did report someone for spam . I read through most of his replies and they were all the same, no interesting or funny answers, just an ad for a web site.

it's petty people with nothing else to do i reckon.
you've got a really good point. i got an answer deleted today as i was engaging in discussion or something - just made a comment (not rude or anything). it's silly. the guidelines need to be there but common sense should take over with some people more x

They do that? Some of it is offensive though. Someone last month posted something up about stapling the moths of loud black people. It was a racist question though. It had so many thumbs-down...

I just had to give you the thumbs up for this one. I wish I could have given you some more. Some people just don't have a sense of humour. They just live in a sad sad dreary world. Just be glad that you are not one of them. Life is for living, let's all live it and leave the saddos to their own fete. Merry Christmas.

i agree 100% its just a shame that some people actually seem to go out of their way to look for questions or comments to take offence to and report.
i have to say i pity them as their lives must be terribly shallow and empty.
