Why are Abuse Reports shown in the recent topics list on the front page?

[ Edited ]

Or is it only we mods that see that on the front page?

I think that one's just for your ilk. I don't see any on there now.

You need a testing alt.

For us to see it would point a (potentially) unsubstantiated finger at someone, and name the accusor too. The former is unconfirmed at the time of report. The latter just shouldn't be public knowledge, ever, imo.

But displaying the posts would be a valuable service to those in the community who want to know where to buy Uggs in Australia, the virtues of Candian pharmacies for buying Viagra, Russian escort services, counterfeit Beatz headphones, knock-off Louis Vuitton handbags, internet hosting services from India, and things in undecipherable Arabic texts that may or may not be ads for something, or instructions for sleeper cells.

A couple mods tripped over the Open Topics folder and fell into the Abuse thread, but I'm happy to report they were rescued safely by our spam emergency response team. I did notice, however, that one of them was weaing Beatz headphones and Uggs. I didn't ask about the Russian girl.

There are now eight music videos posted on my YouTube channel, including a cover of "We Gotta Get Out of This Place," which joins "Little Pieces", "Black Market Daydreams," and "When the Grid Goes Down" (complete with disturbing video )

If I admitted to or even alluded to having an alt Phil would squash me like a bug.  :eek:

Having said that, it's ESSENTIAL to having a testing alt.  :idk:
