Flag notification to support Flag system and bussiness guys, why not?

[hd49728]

Trust flags, created on 12 June 2019, about two months ago. It is difficult to understand all ideas and operational mechanisms of Flags in early days. Fortunately, over nearly two months, things become clearer for us.

Today, I have idea on Flag Notification. Why not?

In the forum, we have Message Notification that works smooth over years, so I imagine that Flag Notification when created will be able to work smoothly too.

Reasons for Flag Notification:
- I think it is more helpful for good projects. Sometimes, their projects get FUDs, and fake flags that might last for a while before DT members step in and take action by giving oppositions on fake Flags. In the meantime, good projects might suffer FUDs and serious consequences (their investors too) from fake flags. So if developers of good projects or platforms can have rights to receive Flag Notifications, when someone create Flags on them, they will instantly receive information on those Flag Attacks. Then, they can take some necessary actions to solve their cases. It can be helpful for campaign managers too. They likely make mistakes with their post checks, payments, etc. and miss PMs from participants to complain about wrong postchecks, missed payments, etc. Those guys might open Flags on them. Once again, Flag Notifications are helpful.
- At least, Flag Notifications should be sent to them if there are Active Flags on them (with whatever types of Flags).
- If Flag Notification created, forum should give users option to receive Flag notifications or not. It should be an option. People who run their business here, do need it. For the rest, they might ignore that option.

- For bad guys, bad projects, bad platforms, Flag Notifications will operate in the same ways, but I do think they don't really need notifications. Because they do know what they do when they scam others.

Please share your opinion on Flag Notification.

Seems we're off different opinion towards the whole flag notification feature of a thing. I was off the suggestion, DT members should get flag notification message so we don't have to beg for support every now and then but I withdrew that suggestion after LoyceV gave me some disturbing stats about the amount of messages these guys (DT members) will be recieving.

About your suggestion, active flags are very visible especially the type 2&3 so the affected parties need no notification to see that their reputation is been questioned. Beside you need understand how the flag system works, flag just don't become active especially fake ones (like your first reason is pointing at). Fake (inactive) flags are just as useless as fake negative feedbacks, they do no harm to the project's reputation.

Since majority of the forum users rely on default trust setting instead of custom trust setting, hardly before any  fake flags gets enough support to cause any demage (FUD). DT's don't just supoort flags until they have seen enough evidence to do so. (Popular example, Livecoin exchange case)

I mentioned and asked for opinion on Flag notifications with active flags for thread owners, not DT members.
Reasons I already described in OP.
Just thought about one more thing: We all knew that Flags have three types, and Flag boxes will appear after readers click on links and open ANN threads that are flagged. What if thread owners can not see Flag boxes (only readers see those boxes).
By mentioning Flag Notifications, I imply a notification message in Inboxes of when someone got active flags in the forum.
