We Updated the Rules for Report This (Forum) Post

Dear Etsy Admins,

We think the REPORT THIS POST in the FORUMS needs a little revision, a little tweaking, to meet the urgent needs of your Dear Readers. We are just trying to pitch in and help shorten the rollouts and revisions from 18 months to 1 day. Oh, and bring some sense of "organization" to the Forums, which currently = chaos.

So, how about another edition nifty thrifty changes?

Why are you reporting this post? (Etsy Bitch Suggested Revisions)

• Thread is in the wrong section of the forums. It belongs in the classifieds on CraigsList, your local PennySaver, a personal blog, or in an email to your mother
  
  
• Post discusses private matters that have nothing to do with Etsy, business, ecommerce, stores, handmade, swimmy, hammock-construction, the right color for cupcake icing, or anything of actual interest to others anywhere
  
  
• Post is not abusive or insulting enough and no one is boo-hooing because their feelings are hurt
  
  
• Post is deemed to be negative and we do not like negative people, they give off bad vibes and are really yucky. Don’t make me scold you again! Don’t forget, we can mute you in a NY minute!
  
  
• Post, topic, and thread have been moved around so much we forgot what it was about. But we are so sorry that happened to you! Congrats for being so un-definable!
  
  
• Post is from an alternate or "sock puppet" account set up for the purpose of making a point or begging for help because the last 29 requests have been ignored, moved to another topic, locked, or disappeared from print.
  

Any additional comments?

Report this post... additional options that are needed.

I'm sorry, but there are just not enough options for reporting a post. We at Etsy Bitch have come up with some of our own that really need to be implmented.

• Post describes body cheese in intimate detail
• Post uses those goddamn fucking little hearts
• Post asks a rhetorical question everyone damn well knows the answer to
• Post is blatant sympathy-seeking whine
• Post is blatant attention-whoring smut
• Post is blatant promo thinly disguised as a question
• Post is by Rokali
• Post is signed at bottom when everyone already knows who is posting it
• Post is thinly veiled attempt at a threat from admin
• Post is extremely too much fail for this early in the morning
• Post hurts my brain, make it stop
• Post needs serious spell checking and/or language translation

Report this entire thread:

• Entire thread has turned into a trainwreck, please stop the gawking
• Entire thread is pointless, please mute original poster for wasting time & oxygen

Any others you would like to see added to the pile?
