‘This user is mean’ and ‘I don’t like this user'

1. You can actually report their comments instead of just putting “This user is mean.” Reporting needs evidence or it will be considered false reporting.
2. Same as 1 because how will you dislike a user who is always kind to you?

1. How can WIBDs be inappropriate? If you see a user loving a bad project or following an account built for improper purposes, report the project or the other user.

Okay, but then what’s the point of sending a “fake” report? Won’t that just clog up the ST’s reports?

There are plenty of users I don't like, but I don't think I could report them for that.

I'm talking about the ‘I don’t like this project' report option, where it just takes you to a page telling you why you shouldn't report stuff for that. It doesn't actually send anything.

For reporting profiles, I think it would be best if there were no “other” option. Otherwise I would expect to see lots of Scratchers reporting a user because they're “mean,” when they really should be reporting the comments instead. While you state that “this Scratcher is mean” is already listed as a fake report option, that would not stop any rotten apples from using the “other” option to report them anyway.

I do like all the rest of the options you give. Are there any other reasons why someone would want to report a profile? It might be better to just add those other reasons as separate reporting options, rather than adding a generic “other” option that Scratchers could misuse.

For ‘This user is mean’ well, report their mean comments. Even if you need to add this option to profile reports, it's not a fake reason because being so mean that most people would feel bad after reading the comment is considered disrespectful, and is a form of cyberbullying.
For ‘I don’t like this user' why is disliking a user becoming a way to report people? And why should you report people you dislike? Like, I guess only 8-year-olds and below would click the option saying ‘I don’t like this user'

The fake reasons are like the “I don't like this project” option on projects. If they click it, it'll tell them what to do instead of reporting them.

1. Yeah, it is unshared. It isn't even public. 2. St can view unshared projects, according to the ToU.

It also takes a couple of hours to get it buried under other activities, especially if the user is very active and checks projects a lot.

That makes the option completely nonsense. Why would you try to report a user when their ‘inappropriate activity’ doesn't get removed, or it will be covered soon that when it comes to reviewing, the ST can't even see the inappropriate item?
