Title:YIKES is this Red Flag and Report Abuse here to stay on ALL Posts??
Views: 1810
Views: 1810
Please tell me this will not be on all of our Posts .. It is way too big, too obtrusive, takes away from anything else posted on a post. It is so ugly and very distracting. If it must be on all forums then can't it be else where other than on every post in the forum???
Thank you all ahead of time for any information about this.
Hugs, Faye (aka GrannyFaye)

Wow , what a shock today ,nobody will like this big red ugly flag on our posts . Group members sending me emails to try and remove it , please make it smaller .
The groups that are not posting trash or porn of some kind will not need it , the groups that do post porn will not report abuse anyway ...

Your right Roxy It is Hugh.
HERE is Aimoo's Red Flag
I took it into PSP and took the white background out and also reduced the size . This size, if we MUST have this thing is much better.

It needs to be smaller GrannyFaye...maybe 25x25.

Actually GrannyFaye...the flag should be the same size as the rest of the icons on this page....take a look around. I believe the majority of them are 16x16:

Your very right about that Roxy. I just did one to try to get Aimoo to take notice of the size difference plus, they have a white background on the flag and not everyone has a white background on the skins in their group.

The red flag is also all over my board threads in my group. It's pretty much in all the threads in my group. So far I'm only seeing server 4 getting this & not the other servers. Why is that??? It wasn't here yesterday. What's the purpose of this?
It looks big & distracting & it takes away from other people's posts. If we must have it can you at least put it somewhere else to where it's not in everyone's post??? If we don't need it, please take it out. There's nothing in my group to be reported. Please let us know why this is here & what's the purpose. Thanks for your time in this matter.

This is terrible. I do hope they (amioo admins) think about this and do away with it.

I hate this also and I really feel it is unfair for any of us, to have to have that ugly flag and so stinking big! ReallY! I also have it in my groups I thought oh no what did I do wrong? Well to me it should be taken out, put down by the allow signature area, u click on a word and then it pops up, not just right in the middle of the stinking post! This is awful and I dislike it very much. I 'm thinking of moving out now due you guys throw these suprizes in here, we dont need this. Most groups if they dont want it like I dont in mine, aimoo should have it moved down smaller by the allow signature line, in a word and then the flag pops up when u click on it, why are u doing this I'm so glad i didnt pay for my group and maybe I have no room to share since I didnt but I dont want that dang flag in my posts, and I'm about fed up if u guys aimoo cant tell us ahead of time what is going to be added in OUR POSTS< it really isnt fair. I dislike it and am now in a cranky mood. I am going to work on my other site. Geesh.

I found them on server 4 only too. I agree they are far too big and should be with the other small icons if they are too stay. It looks like something a 3 year old would do in the design stakes.

I don't understand why they have it at all. They already have a way to report abuse groups. Please take the red flag off. Some of the groups I was in have left Aimoo because of this and other problems. Why can't Aimoo fix the stuff they have and stop adding all this crazy stuff?

This is madness any responsible Owner or Admin will delete any unsavory posts and sort out the poster. Its only those who are irresponsible who let XXX into thier threads and no matter how big an icon they wont report it or delete This is a stupid move on Aimoos part.

So far I have only seen those ugly red flags on all of our posts on groups in Forum 4. Aren't we the lucky ones. LOL I keep peeking in on other groups in Forum 2 and also Forum 1 and I do see this crazy thing them on those two forums.
I see no use for that at all. I know in our groups the permissions are set so that no one can post on any of the catagories unless they are a member and none of our members would be posting Child Porn which is what Aimoo is trying to do away with. I can understand getting rid of CP but why should every group with responsible managers be punished?
Please reconsider and get rid of the ugly big red flag. Like others have already mentioned those posting the CP will not click and report that they have done so.

I've seen some strange things done on Aimoo but putting this red flag in EVERY post in a forum really ticks me off. It looks stupid and it serves no purpose other than to be an eyesore. You already placed a report icon up in the toolbar, isn't that sufficient?
I agree with the posts above...
People who actively manage their forums have NO NEED for this feature.
Forums that are locked down to members only have NO NEED for this feature.
SMH at this...

Is something going to be done about this?
I don't want to leave Aimoo but if it comes to that, I will.
The flag is just way too much.
The words "report abuse" is fine ~ no picture is needed.

I don't believe this!
I hate it, and don't even know how to use it...but it is very ugly, and seeing it scared me to death...I thought someone had reported a video as abusive, but then I looked around and saw it all over the place...I am livid!
I work so hard to make my site look beautiful....this is worse than ads! I want to scream...we had no say in this, and my forum has never had any problems with porn...because I watch it and care for it EVERY day....I do not need this, and I insist these flags be removed!

I don't care what size it is....putting it on every post is excessive!
Besides, we already have an icon for reporting abuse.
All we need now is a tutorial to be sent around to all of the forum owners, so that they can post an announcement to their members and let them know how to use it!
I do not want a report abuse message disturbing the flow of my threads and adding one more unnecessary and confusing icon. As far as my board goes, people will probably think that it means "Is this video abusive?"
It is definitely NOT appropriate for my forum, face the music!

The Techs used the flag as a tester when they added the feature. It will be changed for a much smaller icon.

Why does it need to be posted in every post that members/owners make?
That's what I don't get. It's redundant & looks like the poster is posting something wrong. Is this really necessary in server 4 groups?? No other servers have this except server 4. If it's necessary, then put it somewhere else & not in the posts.
I understand about having it, but not in each post.

I still think its offensive being put into every post even if its just the words. Why can the words not be placed with the rest under the forums header picture. As I have exampled here, and leave our posts free from report abuse icons or words.

Like I said in another Post, this better be GONE us people having Diamond, this is not right.. And I have been to a few groups tonight, and they do NOT have these...
Put them in here, on every post... REALLY, it's only fair... This group is no different then ours... Babs group don't have them either... And a few of my friends groups don't have them either... But I'll tell you what.. They better get them in there groups too.. Not just server 4..
I sure will not pay for diamond when it runs out, until I have these advertising out of my group.. And that is excatly what they are...
We have the report Icon up on top,. That is all we need.. My God.... Every Post, you make the group UGLY....

I know why they are doing this.. But us server 4 people have to Suffer,...
It is because on server 4 is most of the CP, So if they put this lil things on every post they can they click those lil flags to report in the CP groups...
But yas know what, that is WRONG... We don't have Porn at all... So you messed up again Aimoo... Now get it out of our groups.... Tonight....

It can't be placed where you suggest as it is for reporting a message, not a forum and it will be much less obtrusive.

I paid for no advertisements and still have time left on it..I will not renew..this is a form of advertising by putting it in our forums in an intrusive place. This will prove to be a major downfall for Aimoo. Admins need to listen to the members. I do not have it yet but seeing it here is enough for me.

Many thanks to aimoo for listening to our complaints about the red flag and kudos to the techs for removing it.
Also I would like to thank those of you who joined in to help get Aimoo to realize this red flag on every post was a big mistake .
Sending our Hugs to you all .. And Alice and Babs and Karrier and the techs.
