If you see offensive or other "bad" posts on the site... - DogForum.net

Unfortunately, there are a lot of idiots who have access to computers in the world. Some of them are bound to find their way to our site. If such a person happens to post trash on here (profanity, spam, etc.), just click on the Report Bad Post button. It's the little ! in a triangle in the lower left corner of every post. That will send an e-mail with a link to the post to both the staff and will create a thread in the Forum Director's forum to let everyone on the staff know there is an issue that needs to be investigated. If there's a whole string of such posts, it's only necessary to report one as we'll just do a search for all posts by the member and delete all of the offending posts.

This is a family friendly environment, and we'll work to keep it that way.

I totally missed that button last night... Next time I will push it. >^_^< I'm sure though that it was pretty obvious when you signed on this time that somebody without a life was spamming LMFAO. Some people. >9.9<

I wasn't aware that button sent an e-mail. That's cool.

A couple of people did use that tool with the recent incident and a few times in the past. Please make judicious use of that tool whenever something seems not quite right be it something obvious like spam or something more subjective like a rude post. I endeavor to read through all of the new posts every day, but reported posts are very helpful in keeping the tone and content of the site appropriate.

S.P.A.M= Stupid, Pointless, Annoying, Message. Or in other words, people posting adds, messages just to make people mad such as "Dogz R stupd! I eat dogz 4 dinner! ROTFLMFAO!!!!!!111!", picking fights with people, posting the same message over and over again, ect....

People without lives do it because they think it's fun, but if we just ignore it and report it, it's not fun for them any more.
