It's not for public consensus.
the Rules Wrote:Reporting Posts
It is not appropriate to make a public thread to complain about another user.
If you feel a user has violated the rules, the best thing to do is to report the post in which they have done so. Doing so brings the matter to the attention of the moderators/admins almost immediately and action, if deemed necessary, is taken soon after.
Another method of dealing with complaints is to PM a moderator/admin. While it is still private and acceptable, the report system is better since it makes every moderator/admin aware and permits a quicker response time if the person you PM is not online.
In either case, it's important that these matters be dealt with privately and no longer in public threads. If you create a public thread complaining about another member, it will be removed.
In some cases, staff will make actions public in the Staff Log. This only includes banning and the reason for banning. Staff action taken against existing members will not be logged in that thread.
