It is often abused,often just to troll. Two things need to happen, it either is removed from the report page/GUI or the conditions need to be changed. Examples of abuse: -Someone calls out a hacker on the forums -Has significant evidence -Already reported the exploiter --------------------------------- He/She is reported and then banned for a personal attack, even though he/she provided reason and proof to the so called "Attack", when it is merely a simple post just to get the hackers name known, so he can eventually be IP banned. http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=122272028 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This type of report subject brings to mind a legal subject known as "libel". This should be introduced into roblox, it would benefit everyone. It would allow you to call out people if you have proof, if not, you face the consequences. That simple. Thank you for your consideration, Hyperiom

There is something called "contacting"

Whenever people post no, or just reply without an explanation of their actions, I wonder why I bother to post.

because personal attack is serious why would you post something like that on the forums anyway just report and email the mods or whatever and move on

Why not, if the mods don't take action, you might as well get the community too. It is not serious, if the victim did something serious they completely and utterly deserve it. You do not understand my point, do you?

You do, first of all, understand they get THOUSANDS if not more reports a day, correct? Let's see you look over all of those and decide which ones are bogus and which one's aren't. Also, public humiliation is NEVER necessary. Take it out with them in a PM if it really bothers you that much.

@Hyperion. I agree with this, but there's a thing called "Photoshop". It'd be too easy to fake.

Okay, so freaking eliminate Personal Attack that simple, remove a good percentage of reports. That simple.

Most of the PA reports are completely legit

Silver, I agree for somethings. But things like exploiting, you really can't photoshop a bunch of bricks exploding everywhere.

A person shouldn't be allowed to out another person on the forums for any reason. Action taken beyond using "Report Abuse" is in fact against the rules, and will stay that way.

@mort. You can't describe things in detail on Report Abuse. That's like if a robber breaks into your home and the most you can do is call 911. Can't defend yourself, and you can't attack it.

This isn't a forum to be a suckup to the admins, you're supposed to give serious reasons and suggestions. If you feel something should be a certain way, simply suggest it and give reasons.

#122303767Sunday, January 05, 2014 3:07 AM GMT

This also isn't a forum to complain about the rules.

#122304165Sunday, January 05, 2014 3:11 AM GMT

Its a forum to add and change rules. gg

Silver, Amen, you are the only other person with some sort of intelligence on this thread.

The people who think that have caused this glorious forum to become infected with rants.

#122307199Sunday, January 05, 2014 3:42 AM GMT

This is not a rant, if you think so, you may as well think every suggestion and idea is. This is a simple suggestion.

Well, that was a reply to silver. However, I should probably defend my position a little better than saying "No, because rules." From my experience on this game, the example given is one of the vast minority of forum complaints about users. Usually, it's some immature little kid who can't take no for an answer, or something similarly trivial. Perhaps the "libel" system you suggested could work, but it seems the majority of forumers as of late believe and/or spam that rules were made to be broken.

@Marble: NSA, Edward Snowden. If he didn't do what he did (Which is essentially Personal Attacking) then we wouldn't know about what they did. This is good. @OP: Support.

I'm going to do something rare and bump an idea I didn't make. This is an amazing thread.

I 100% support this, I've gotten a 14 day ban before because i reported a hacker who kept following me and my friends and using admin to shutdown games.

We can't actually REMOVE personal attack, but I suppose we could adjust this after listening to some stories on this page. Support ~ Do you want to see the Rabbits David? ~
