Report button in SB

Not a bad idea, methinks, to add a little report icon next to each shout.

Just a thought.

Thanks.

-P

To report unappropiated shouts ?

We were talking about creating a group of Moderators just for the shoutbox, and that kind of button (or Delete or any other) would be for those mods only, (not for all) but.... Moderators have to discuss about it, right now is only an idea...

Why something happened ?

Well, some drunk shouting the other day. I've seen it happen more than once. Probably not the best thing for the image of YC to have a bunch of cussing and inap posting on a public shoutbox.

Yes, that's not a new problem, I'll contact the admins about the "ShoutBox Mods" idea...

(actually were ""The Shoutbox Keepers" )

Don't forget it was my idea!

I will talk to Chopin about the Shoutbox Keepers.

Your idea ?, I told you about it and you said it was a "good" idea, not "my" idea

Okay okay, OUR idea. We both did stuff in it :D (Remember, I came up with...uhm... something, I forget what :P)

ok

(the shouts are archived no ?)

The important thing is to create the group, who do you have in mind ? if Chopin agrees he will want to know who will be....

EDIT:

Wait, perhaps is not appropiated to discuss who in here... contact Chopin or I see you in the Reviewers section

I think the idea of a moderation staff for the SB is a good idea, but I really do think that there should be report buttons for the shouts. We can't expect the "keepers" to be actively checking the silly thing all the time.

Still no on an SB report button, eh?

Bump for staff. See post #10

I see what you're saying.

1) Potential for abuse. I can just see it being used in some e-drama -- because the shoutbox is so impulse it might be a bad combination.

2) We at least used to have an edit shout feature, which i think everyone might find handy. I'll look into it.

EDIT:

I've found how to edit shouts, but not how to force everyone's shoutbox to reload, showing the new, edited shout. So FOR NOW the best answer is to reload after seeing a particularly off-color shout - maybe a mod has changed it.
