Why are posts and comments being reported without valid reasons, causing unnecessary work on my end with the recent influx of join requests and pending posts?

Can we please cut down on the unnecessary reporting of posts and comments? It’s really taking up a lot of my time, especially with the sudden increase in join requests and pending posts. I had almost 4000 new join requests and about 200 posts waiting for approval in just one day!
It’s frustrating to see comments and posts being reported for things like violence when they’re not actually problematic. Please consider the reason before reporting to make sure it’s a valid concern. Thanks for understanding!
There’s a more polite way to express your thoughts. It’s clear you’re upset, but the manner in which you convey your message comes off as brash and impolite.
I’m thinking you might be one of those individuals she’s talking about haha
Wow, if you think that’s tacky and rude….maybe that’s something you need to work on. There’s nothing inappropriate about my post.
I agree completely!
Leaving
New text: Heading out
Goodbye and good riddance.
Hilarious…she didn’t leave on her own….I escorted her out. I don’t have the time for that nonsense.
I went back and read your post to see if I could detect any snark, rudeness, or curtness, but I couldn’t find any. Honestly, your appeal was direct, polite, and assertive. What more could she ask for?!?
Thanks for the honesty! It seems like she prefers a more subtle approach 😂
I am truly grateful for the person(s) behind the development and management of this group. The members offering expert advice with good intentions have been a real lifesaver for me and my family. Let’s make sure to follow the rules and guidelines, please.
I’m glad you’re benefiting from being part of the group. There are so many helpful members here who offer great advice to newcomers.
Wow, there are so many new faces here. It’s my responsibility to verify each new member to ensure they are legitimate, which can be quite overwhelming. I take great care in order to safeguard the accounts of my group members. It’s really a challenging task.
I really hope I don’t get kicked out, but seriously, only 3 mods/admins for 478k members? That ratio is just awful. Maybe they should consider adding more people to the team instead of telling others not to report.
I’m good at keeping up, processing within 24 hours most of the time. Reporting a post or comment with no offense is unnecessary. We don’t operate like a nanny state unless there are threats of violence or excessive rudeness. You’re all adults.
I have no knowledge of the reports, the individuals behind them, or the content they are addressing. If you believe it’s a waste of time, I respect that. However, with 478 thousand individuals involved, it’s impossible for me to know what might be deemed offensive by some and not by others.
It’s so common nowadays for people to get offended. It would be best if folks toughened up a bit and just brushed off that kind of thing and moved forward.
I don’t hesitate to call out the rude individuals, and if they persist, I simply block them. Keeping my happy circle even happier! 😊 If everyone just blocked the trolls, they wouldn’t have anyone to bother. And as for reporting, I only flag posts that are clearly scams. I once came across a timeshare page completely overrun by scammers, who even took control of the page admin.
When a report is made, does it reveal the identity of the reporter or does it simply show up as a reported post/comment? I’m puzzled as to what people find offensive on a DIY page 🤦♀️🤦♀️ they obviously have nothing better to do than to bother the admins.
Yup, it displays who made the report. I’m going to message each unnecessary report to find out what’s going on. It’s strange how there are so many nonsensical reports all of a sudden.
Do you know who is responsible for reporting? Just recently, it was determined that a photo of the moon was considered violent.
Yeah, the reports are coming from members, not .
I’m completely new to the group, not sure if this is related but I attempted to make my first post with the secret phrase and everything, yet it keeps getting rejected.
