Reporting a Bombing

NOTE: The report bombing button is an image of a bomb.
NOTE: A "# of votes / # of comments in the last 24 hours" meter is shown next to the "report bombing" button and should be used to help determine if a bombing has occurred.

"Bombing" refers to comment and/or approval/disapproval spamming of a review.


Users can report a review bombing at any time via a "Report Bombing" button on the review page. It's like hitting a fire alarm. It stops all comments and approval ratings from being shown publicly on a review until a moderator investigates.

Invalidly reporting a bombing can result in severe disciplinary action on the reporter.

NOTE: that reporting a bombing from the review's page sends it instantly, so if you change your mind you have to rescind it from the "My Reports" section of your user control panel.
