END ANONYMOUS NSFW FLAGGING!
Many of my friends on this site routinely have perfectly innocuous pics and other content flagged NSFW by spiteful, jealous or just plain malicious little twits and there's nothing they can do to stop it. This kind of thing compromises their enjoyment of the site, sometimes to the point where they simply give up and go elsewhere. Now we know that verifying the merit of an NSFW flag instigated by someone other than the owner is labour-intensive and not taken seriously by the Administration of Fubar, but by allowing this kind of injustice a great deal of ill-will is generated that can be fairly easily avoided.
Another way has to be found to protect the PG-rated nature of the public areas of this site.
The easiest solution would be to
end the practice of anonymous NSFW flagging. Anyone who flags someone else's content as NSFW should have their identities made public and attached to the content in the same way pic-ripping details are recorded. Frivolous or malicious flagging would end overnight.
Here are some other suggestions:
Given the cohesive nature of the community here, volunteers could be found who would spend a certain percentage of their time onsite verifying contested NSFW flags in exchange for fubucks or points.
Someone who has been 'blocked' should not be able to flag anything posted by the blocker under any circumstances.
And just as there are penalties for not properly flagging NSFW content, there should be commensurate penalties for unjustified flagging, in particular being unable to flag others user's content for a period of time (if not permanently).
Please give these ideas due consideration.
If you agree with any of this, copy/paste what you need from the above paragraphs (or write your own of course) and email them to shop@fubar.com. Clicking on that link will call your default mail program, so if you want to use Fubar mail you'll have to enter the address manually in Fubar email. Just make sure to put "END ANONYMOUS NSFW FLAGGING!" in the subject line. If enough people do so they might actually do something about it, but don't hold your breath.
