Karma Points and ABUSIVE THREADS - What Exactly is an Abusive Thread? Great INFO for NEWBIES | |
Zuzu User ID: 24583969 United States 02/04/2013 10:14 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I think that alot of the abusive threads are probably Quoting: SilentlyKnowing thiose composed by angry people, psychos and folks who are presenting such violent anti-American posts that the whole GLP community could be censured for them. I recall one poster who put up a video of himself telling everyone he was going to go out and kill people--even filming his big stash of guns! It was really bizaar! There are also those posted by 12 year olds who have been up all night viewing porno and get "creative" talking about men and women's privates! Hope that helps. Cheers! SK I’ve had people to look at my karma and then say nasty things to me about the abusive post I’ve reported. Quoting: Zuzu The only post that I report are those that are linking to pornography or illegal activities that could cause problems for the site. Believe me, there are no shortage of those types of post during the overnight hours. I have never reported a post just because I disagree with it or don’t care for the topic. That being said, I know there are many people that report post just to be spiteful. This person had.. maybe 12 or so "abusive posts" karma. That seems like they're making a living at it to me. I started reporting after the last time I got caught in a mass site band because of people doing things such as SilentlyKnowing described. I have reported a few that were threatening violence directed at "high profile" people. These types of post can result in one of the alphabet groups visiting GLPs owner or even get the site taken down. What is SilentlyKnowing? It's the name of the other poster that I quoted. Proud to share the basket with you. |
Angelic_Warrior (OP) User ID: 23290196 United States 02/04/2013 10:15 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | ... Quoting: Angelic_Warrior Hmmmm Interesting! I would think if they're going to ban you, they should at least have to tell you why. How would you know not to do it again if it's never brought to your attention? Trin.. u there? The majority of people know when they're being abusive. Are you referring to the "content" of their posts? Yes ma'am..or sir. I think most of us realize when we've taken it too far. If I harass you, threaten you, constantly call you degrading filthy names in any of these threads..you have every reason to report me for being abusive, and I'd be an idiot for thinking you wouldn't or that I could get away with it. Gotcha... basically demeaning someone But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. I Corinthians 2:14 God doesn't choose favorites.. They choose HIM It is not the greatness of my faith that moves mountains but my faith in the greatness of God |

If I harass you, threaten you, constantly call you degrading filthy names in any of these threads..you have every reason to report me for being abusive, and I'd be an idiot for thinking you wouldn't or that I could get away with it. Gotcha... basically demeaning someone Demeaning to the extreme or at least something beyond calling someone a bitch I would imagine. I've been here for a while, I've only gotten in 'trouble' once and tagged for an abusive post. It wasn't for demeaning someone though..it was for suggesting illegal activity. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it. I am an evil giraffe, and I shall eat more leaves from this tree than perhaps I should, so that other giraffes may die. |

Debauchery User ID: 15455863 United States 02/04/2013 10:34 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They didn't tell me why. I knew after I posted the comment it would probably be removed and I'd get an abusive post karma. You can't talk about committing crimes here and you can't post things that would encourage others to do so. I've been around long enough to know better. I was agitated at the time though and just didn't care. And the LORD spake, saying, "First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.

What is abusive? Spam, Porn, Call outs against members, threats of bodily injury/death, heavy trolling & shilling, racial slurs, etc. I also remove posts using the "c" word. We check out every report to make certain the thread/post is abusive. Also, please note that if someone abuses the report function in an effort to harass another member by making bogus reports, they can land in time out as well.

Quoting: Angelic_Warrior I hit on the karma bar and their list of comments came up. I was shocked to see MANY 2 thumbs up for Reporting an Abusive Post. What exactly is an "abusive post"? Why would someone have such an abundance of double thumb green karma for reporting these. I found this disturbing. Please inform me otherwise. you did not find this disturbing |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 28366263 Canada 02/04/2013 12:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | However, I use the abusive button for staunching some of the flow of deliberate commercial postings, porn or typed gibberish (the gibberish stuf is usually from China, for some reason). There are tons of those kinds of posts - actually seems to be getting worse as GLP becomes better known. The typed gibberish, apparently, is an attempt to get a foothold into the system for launching malware, so that is important, if you spot one, to report immediately. The commercial postings just clog the system, so getting rid of those helps GLP readers, too, and I mostly just do this as I see it, and if I feel like it that day. I can't afford a membership, here or anywhere else, but after a few months of scanning the threads, and reporting a few as I seem them, I usually have enough karma pts to use to pin a good thread that might otherwise be lost, and that is a great feeling to get those really good posts pinned up at the top of the page. |
