Not Allowed
Do not post threats, instructions for violence, targeted harassment, hate speech, sexual exploitation, doxxing, spam, impersonation, or malicious links.
Do not mass-report users to silence disagreement. False or abusive reports may be treated as moderation abuse.

You can report a site comment and provide a short reason. Reports are visible to administrators.
Cards and Account Limits
Pending reports appear as yellow report signals in the reported user profile summary.
Administrators may issue red cards for serious or repeated violations. Three red cards block login and authenticated actions.
