Every time I see some spamming the forum or abusing,threatening someone,I report him to moderators using the option given below every post.
I believe it is every members duty to help mods keep this place clean and given the amount of message posted, it is not possible for staff to handle this without members help.
But what troubles me is that every time we report someone,our email is disclosed to staff.
Please note that your email address
will be revealed to the moderators if
you use this..
Now is this punishment for reporting or what.Why is reporters email be disclosed?
Someone has asked same question like yours several months ago. Here is it
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1689124.0And theymos's answer about that
How SMF 1.x handles reports is that it sends an email to all mods with jurisdiction over the reported post, with the email's from address set to your email. bitcointalk.org still does this, though I also added a reports queue, which is what most mods actually use.
