Can someone step into PI, please?

Dial Hard

Hi All

The PI/RI mod team have been a bit absent over the past day or so, which is understandable given the circumstances, I expect a delay in reacting to reported post. However, there is absolute incel nonsense being posted in relation to a thread about a very sensitive subject at the moment. Can a CMod or Admin not step in?

Thanks.

Thanks for the heads up

Hi Dial Hard,

Thanks for the heads up. However, did you PM any of the PI mods? Most of us were around yesterday, and I see that you reported the post at 19:29, but this help desk thread was posted at 19:33, which can hardly be said to have given the moderators a chance to respond.

If you feel that a post is so pressing that it needs to be acted on with urgency, a PM is probably the quickest way to get that information across.

Hi Mike

I'd reported a couple of posts over the past day or so with no action and hadn't seen any of the mods online. Which is fine, as I said, I understand everyone has other stuff on but that particular rubbish was so odious I felt it needed to be flagged, and there's not really any point PMing someone who's not online, in fairness.

Definitely PM. I get dozens of reported posts a day so, to save my inbox, they all go straight into a folder so I might not notice straight away. If you think something urgently needs CMod attention, please PM

Just because a post hasn't been actioned, doesn't mean a reported post hasn't be seen and considered by the forum moderators. As Faith said, if it's something particularly egregious, feel free to drop the mods or Cmod a PM. Anything else, the mod team will get to, I assure you.

I'm aware of that. As I said, it was more the fact that I hadn't seen any of the mod team online in a while. But hey, if a PM pings you a push notification if you're not logged in, then happy days, I'll do that in future.
