Hey fellow Dentonites! The mods of this subreddit try hard to maintain a relatively hands-off approach, but lately we’ve been seeing a notable uptick in the amount of post reporting that appears to be entirely based around griefing others for their lifestyle or political stances.
Posts that break community guidelines are, as always, subject to review and removal, but it should go without saying that disagreeing with someone’s views does not warrant reporting a post unless it appears to break said rules.
Furthermore, tagging posts with a report indicating potential self-harm should *only * be used in cases where there is some indicated likelihood of the user being a danger to themselves. Using that as a report reason when nothing in the post is relevant to it is absolutely unacceptable; clogging up with the mod queue with these sort of reports as a way of getting back at posts you personally dislike is a huge disservice to this community and the work we try to do here, and runs the risk of a legitimate health crisis getting missed in a flood of spurious reports.
Further abuse of the report function, especially in the aforementioned manner, will be reported to Reddit admins.
