What will you do if Jagex/JMods decide to refuse to answer you or anyone for that matter? You send in a report/ticket and you get no answer?
The same as people who don't get their reports responded to on FMR at present - suck it up.
The aim, however, is to achieve a more timely response to all reports.

Exactly.

All you're doing with this is moving the problem elsewhere and the core will still exist.

So in the end this is pointless.

I very much agree that the time between the thread being handled is troublesome, but I do not support removing the only avenue through which people are able to submit reports on Forum Moderators. There absolutely needs to be a way of doing this, and keeping it public as opposed to directing people to an inbox or whatever increases both accountability and transparency.

I agree, which is why I suggested an alternative.

In theory this is of course correct, but the fact remains that the system is - for whatever reason - completely broken.

I would welcome your suggestions for a functional alternative.

You know what?

In all honesty, they should do away with FMR and replace with with a function that allows us to report any given post with the click of a button.

What's so hard about that?

Just saying, but at one point in time they allowed ppl to "highlight posts" with the caution button under posts but that got abused so they made it for breaking IRL laws only.

So i dont see them bring that back or making an alternative.

Most other forums has lower registration/posting requirements than RS forums has, yet they maintain report functions and have fairly low abuse rate.
We have low report abuse rates and low registration requirements. On the other hand, we see ban evasion more than RS does, as creating throwaway accounts for posting is much easier. Life is like a camera: Just focus on what's important, capture the good times, develop from the negatives, and if things don't work out, take another shot !

This happens time and time again sadly.

It would be sad to see it go; overall I feel they are on the side of moderators, you will very rarely find they will side with a former.

And yes you are right, by the time they get to it, the majority of complaints wouldn't be relevant.

Not sure if I want to say yay or nay at this point.

It's a shame that our purple moderators couldn't full the role.
