    Just a reminder to everyone that the moderators aren't on the website 24/7.

    If someone posts something completely inappropriate for empty closets (especially porn, abuse, harassment etc) then please report it using the report post feature, located in the bottom left hand side of a user's post ([​IMG]).

    This will alert the moderators so we can take the appropriate actions.

    Likewise, if you have an issue regarding the chatroom, please contact the Chat room Mods Jim1454 and Steam Giant, or one of the forum mods if they are offline.

    Also, if you need to contact us for whatever reason, Paul, TriBi, Becky and myself are always available via PM.

    Have a good day/night guys, and thanks for helping keep EC a safe place to chat!

    Dave

    Thanks for the reminder Dave. I totally forgot about it.

    Also I think we should let people know what "Forum Trolls" are because after the incident we had earlier many people didn't know about them.

    There are some weird bored people out there that just try to make our lives suck, but don't fear! We can fight back by just not doing anything. They feed off our replies so ignoring them will just make them stop.

    These people post hateful messages (they PM too) to us and post disgusting pictures (trust me there are some bad ones out there) but remember, just ignoring it is the best thing to do.

    -Tom.

    I've used the feature a couple of times - I've never forgotten it. Not that I like having to do report posts every once in a while.

    Don't be afraid of reporting stuff. We don't mind getting false reports or multiple reports about the same thing.

    Someone signed up and posted homophobic abusive comments in various threads. Dave banned him and deleted all his posts within about half an hour. This was about nine hours ago.

    It's good to know the mods are quick with these sorts of things, y'know, catching homophobes and so on.

    Yeah, I missed it, as well. I don't mind, though. Whatever happened, it's nice to know our mods are active and taking care of it. :slight_smile:

    I'll repeat Jamie's words; whatever it was that happened, it happened in August. You weren't here then, urman.
