If the report button was changed for an "Ignore user" button instead? The function is that you cannot see the selected users answers and questions anymore, and the abuse of the report button would, of course, stop.

At least then I wouldn't lose all my damn points.

A good way to solve the problem of reporting people, not a good way to solve the problem of violators of yahoo answers, because they will still be around even if you ignore them or not. Thats almost like asking people to ignore the violence you see everyday, ignore threats, ignore evil. Ignoring something is a remedy only for the ignorant.

I like this idea. It gives individuals responsibility for what goes in and out of their minds. I'm all for choice. I have to admit that I can really get worked up over what I consider predatory behavior on this venue. In this case, I would like to see a button which causes the predator to receive a fatal electric shock.

sounds fair, but in the grand scheme what does it really matter anyway?

Sorry but some stuff is so hateful and sick it needs reporting. Most of the people that get reported shouldn't. The ones that need it don't...go figure. I think that Yahoo needs to really look at how they handle the "hot" forums.

The report trolls would not approve because they live to have others deleted.

I think that Y&A should be responsible instead of the users doing the reporting. That would be fair.

I think it's pitiful if someone cannot handle someone elses views. Shame on them.
