Can you get into trouble for reporting too much?

Recently there has been an onslaught of arseholes goaders and obviously the best thing to do is not rise to it as it bumps the thread/ fuels the fire and also not to call them out as they could be a genuine person who needs help. So my question is, can you get into trouble for being 'report' happy? I'm only asking as the last forum I was on years ago would penalise people if they were thought to be reporting too much. I have reported 3 posts in the past 24 hours (inc. Kerrang twat and goady M&S trouser woman) which I felt were justified, but getting the e-mail in my inbox from MNHQ that looks so official with its incident number is so off-putting! I'm not a busy-body, honest, I just want the website to be the best it can be, especially in light of the AF incident. Cheers!

WE LOVE REPORTS! CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THE BUGGERS!

We love reports about personal attacks
We love reports about troll hunting
We love reports that say "I don't like the look of this person"
We love reports that say "This thread is a bit weird"
We love reports that say "This is funny put it in classics!"
We love reports about stuff going wrong on site
We love reports about stuff going well on site
We love reports telling us when we've messed up
We love reports telling us how good our hair looks today

Sometimes it might take a while for us to respond (such as with the Prince George one, which is gone now), but we value every report we receive. Honestly. The bottom line is, if stuff isn't reported, we don't know about it And if we don't know about it, we can't do anything.

Don't worry about annoying us, or even annoying people on the thread - all reporting does is give us a heads up on situation, so we can take the appropriate action.

@scaevola

Your hair looks brilliant!

(Hope it's ok to say that openly, not as a report)

Definitely ok. MNHQ actively encourage this sort of thing Wink

@BOF

I'm not convinced they like my reports when the come in full dossier format, with links, historical references, and a full list of troll username conventions and tropes...I think their hearts sink Grin

Still, I shall pepper them with creative compliments and see if that cheers them up Grin

We LOVE your reports, BOF. Cake? Our hearts sink when no one reports anything Sad
