Report post only allowing three types of report?

    Went to report a post in a no chat thread as there had been a trail of chat (and there is a chat thread on that topic in the same forum) but saw there's only three categories you can report now and even entering text in the box below still required me to tick one of the three boxes? Why is this?

    I was a mod in a previous life and can't see this making any difference?

    There's actually 6 options, but the problem is the bottom 3 are not accessible in portrait mode on a mobile, due to the scroll bar on the RHS not working.

    If you turn your phone landscape it works.

    But I agree with your basic premise. The options provided do not cover the whole gambit of reasons while a post may need reporting.

    Maybe it's a case that "breaks community rules" covers everything anyway?? Ie trolling, off topic, baiting etc

    It's being discussed on the main bugs thread and has just been backed out.

    The new system was just reverted, it has bugs and usability issues.
