Contacting the moderating team

If you need to contact a moderator or simply wish to view the complete administration team, you can click the link 'The moderating team' found at the bottom of the main board page (the first page you see when visiting the board), or from 'My Assistant'.

This list will show you administrators (those who have administration control panel access), global moderators (those who can moderate in all forums) and the moderators of the individual forums.

If you wish to contact someone about your member account, then contact an administrator - if you wish to contact someone about a post or topic, contact either a global moderator or the forum moderator.

Reporting a post

The report function is a feature of the forum software. It allows any registered member to send a short message regarding the contents of a particular post or a topic to all members of the moderation team, who may then edit or remove that post or topic. The report button is found to the bottom left of each and every post in the chat forum. The button looks like this:



Reasons for reporting a post might be to alert the moderators about spam, misplaced postings, and inappropriate content. Check the forum usage guidelines to see what is considered inappropriate content.


This function will let you report the post to the forum moderator (or the administrator(s), if there isn't a specific moderator available). You can use this function when you think the moderator(s) should be aware of the existence of that post. However, do not use this to chat with the moderator(s)!. You can use the email function or the Personal Messenger function for that.
