This is a guide to show how to use the "Report A Post" button.
Step 1: Make sure you are logged in. Click the report button. The following picture has the location and design of every report button this site uses. The Blue Grey one is in bottom left, as is the Sunset. The Cherry Coke one is in the top right. The button is always attached to the post. Be sure to click the correct report button, otherwise the problem may be ignored.

Step 2: Give a very short description of the problem. (You'll see why in a minute.)Spoiler!
Step 3: This is what we see. Notice that the thread title is the forum and is the same as the content of the problem's description. The shorter and accurate the description, the quicker we know what it is.Spoiler!
Step 4: Once we click the thread, this is what is posted inside. It restates the reason the post was reported, a copy of the message reported, and who posted it. The assigned moderators is essentially useless. The post also includes a link to the post that was reported.Spoiler!
Step 5: A Moderator handles the situation, and posts in the thread to indicate that it has been taken care of. This almost always includes the action(s) taken.Spoiler!
