In my case, it generates an email notification which links to the post in question and shows whatever comment the clipe reporter makes.   ;D

If I then click the link and then see the post is in the bin or the relevant comment either amended or deleted, I do nowt else.  If its still 'live' and worthy (in my opinion) of action, it gets moderated.  If I think its all fair and above board then I leave it alone.

If another mod does the same view thing as I have done and decides to moderate the post subsequently then, thats also fair by me.

The admin team have, I think, a reasonable fair/even grasp of whats wanted as regards spam, insults, innappropriate comment et al but that said, we are all fallible.  What suits one does not by default suit another and thus, if somethings deleted/moderated then in 99.999% of cases, will not subsequently be 'unmoderated'.  But that does happen sometimes.....  :-*

So, if you hit the button in error and then immediately bail out of that topic, does that still go through or do you have to type a comment and ok it.  :-\

Basically, what I'm asking is, did I report a post accidentally the other night. Surely I can't be the first person to do this.  ;D
Just to be clear, I would never knowingly hit that button, I would just move on to another post.  :y

TBH, I'm not sure. I look at the alert mods notifications kinda 'en masse' when recieved and if one needs something done, I do it.  If not, I leave it alone.  I do not always read who the sender is given the volume that sometimes is incoming about the same subject and simply do a blanket notify read/delete in my mail prog as required after making my descision.

Hope that clarifies a bit?   :)

The Jury is still out on that one  ;D ;D but cheers for the explanation.  :y

Perhaps I'm just the first to admit the error.  ;) ;D ;D

I've only ever used it for reporting spammers, and I'm not sure if that was on here or not... >scratches chin<

I usually just ignore any dubious postings too but if I did read something that particularly bothered me then I doubt I'd press 'the button', I'd be more likely to make a comment on the thread instead.
