If someone reports one of your stories because they noticed a mistake, how do you know so you can attend to it? And if you fix it, how do you clear the report?

Also a lot of people report things because of sexual, offensive, etc. content (even though Heisig himself suggests those kinds of stories in his book).

Basically I tend to ignore the report counts. I don't remember any case when it helped me.

My most reported story is the sign of the snake one.  Yes, I know my 'story' has nothing to do with the sign of the snake.  Yes, I'm comfortable with that.  No, I don't think anyone needs a story to remember the sign of the snake.

Under "all my stories", reports is on the list of "sort by" on the far right.  Once it is reported it is there forever. I have 64 stories and counting reported :-)

I change stories if one is reported and I feel something is over offensive.  I often let emotion get the better of me creating stories dealing with religeon, politics or if was just chatting with a girlfriend and haven't calmed down yet from the sexual energy.  I am also including kana from book two now and occasionally make typo errors that get pointed out.  I do agree that creating offensive stories is in line with the spirit of the book.  They should be clever if shared though.

People reported "your" stories. They're great. I rode off at least 50 of them and I didn't see a thing wrong. I made sure to star them too. Some people....

Wait how many report did you say you have...

>_>

I just need to... check something really... quick...

I remember doing that once. I was careful after I saw what happened. So whoever it was, I apologize...

It still puzzles me though why so many of my stories have one or two reports. Maybe some people don't realize what it's for??

It's not that big a deal having the reports.  If you know there is nothing wrong with the story, that is all that matters.

But aren't you worried that the reason for the report will come back later to haunt you? Say early one you make a story with elements that gets used as a primitive later...

Sounds like we shouldn't have a reporting system then, if it doesn't mean much. What was the point of it anyway?

I would prefer it was a direct link to the user's email so feedback could be given.
