1. Q/A will not receive an automatic violation for only 1 report. If a statement is a true violation, more than one person will report it. This will reduce haters.

2. If a violation is received, Community Service will provide a brief explanation. A link to the community guide is often unhelpful.

3. A person receiving a violation (offender) will be able to see who reported them (reporter) to give them an opportunity to block that user. Using the reporting fuction will automatically block the offender. If the reporter wishes to unblock, they could do so manually. This way, the offender can block the reporter so they will no longer be offended.

4. No reporting ability at level 1.

5. No 360 avatars at level 1. This will keep the porno avatars to a minimum.

Any other items you think might be helpful? I know there are some downsides to these suggestions, but I believe the upside outweighs them. Your thoughts?

i think those are great suggestions.

re: 3) many people will not report violations if others could see who's doing it, it would cut the amount of violation reports for little or no reason.

1. Yes, I wish they would implement this. The only problem is, we do have groups of people who will ask their buddy to report as well.

2. They do send a link to TOS. CS cannot send an explanation because that would require too much manpower.

3. They would never implement being able to see who reported. It would cause all sorts of problems and retaliation, though I DO think your idea about the automatic block is an excellent one.

4. I've been yelling this one for over a year now, though no one from the great yahoo in the sky seems to be listening.

5. I hadn't thought of this one, but it is an awesome idea. The only problems with 4 and 5 are a person can be "good" for what, a day? Isn't that about how long it takes to reach level 2? Then go on about their childish ways.

Been to the forum lately? Go there. It's a real eye opener. You'll soon find out that Yahoo really doen't care. I think they're just in it for the money.

You certainly hit the head of the nail when you said no reporting abililty at level 1. If you go into the profiles of all the outrageous questions they all are level 1's. Glad to see you back. Hey, I can cook. I'm certainly over 21!

All except for the part where people will find out who reported them. That might encourage some trolls to go after people and try to get them suspended. Otherwise awesome ideas esp. 4 & 5!

Got my vote

Another suggestion : Trolls often have more than one account so a peer review category If a question is reported we get to vote if the community thinks it is a violation grave enough to require suspension then we say so.

I like 1, 2, 4, 5. I would also like 3, but that could be used as a weapon for the trolls.

These are great ideas Food Dude! I am happy to know you are back after yesterday! Hopefully soon someone will apply these rules to Yahoo!

I also think when starting a new account they should put a 24 hold on it before you can use that account.

I woould agree and add: Only 1 report per person per answer!!! I got reported 6 times by the same person for the same answer!
