When someone puts a "flag" on a photo, it should also post their tribe name as well to Identify who is going around and flagging nearly every single photo. As it is now, one can go through & flag every photo in a tribe with no accountability whatsoever. I'm saying that some folks are abusing the flag system.
I, myself, have never felt the need to flag a photo. I think it should be removed totally IMHO.

Re: ABUSE OF THE "FLAG"
Thu, April 26, 2007 - 7:35 AMHi Chopper. If you think that someone may be abusing the flagging system, please be sure to contest the flagging of your photos by clicking on the link in the flag notification message you receive. Leave a comment too, and your photo will be reviewed. If it's found to be in violation of our TOU, then it will be removed and you'll be notified. If it doesn't violate our Terms, the photo will be reinstated, and we'll determine whether or not the flagging was malicious. Thanks! -

Re: ABUSE OF THE "FLAG"
Thu, April 26, 2007 - 8:31 AMWhen someone flags a photo, it should show WHO flagged it for accountability. I'm not taking the time to send in all of my photos in my tribe for review because some nut case decided to go through & flag them all.
If it is a nudity issue for minors, I can understand that but I have NONE of those. And there is a setting for that anyway or there used to be which, makes flagging a bit over-the-top anyway. -

Re: ABUSE OF THE "FLAG"
Thu, April 26, 2007 - 12:13 PMPhotos can be flagged by either tribe staff, the Community, or a combination. Please contest just a couple of the photos, so that we can see if there's a pattern. .we can then deal with the abuser! -

Re: ABUSE OF THE "FLAG"
Thu, April 26, 2007 - 12:26 PMJust goto my "Separation of Church & State" tribe too see all of the flagged photos. Again, flags should also contain the one who flags the pic for accountability. It would detour flag abuse as well. -

Re: ABUSE OF THE "FLAG"
Sat, April 28, 2007 - 4:20 PMChopper's right. It's ridiculous that people can flag annoymously. It's way too Stasi/KGB, like unidentied informers everywhere. It's weird and annoying. It shoud be the opposite -- if someone has a problem with a photo, the PRIMARY route should be that they flag it As a secondary route, if somebody fears reprisal or something, they should be able to privately contact Tribe and ask that the photo(s) be looked into.

Re: ABUSE OF THE "FLAG"
Tue, July 8, 2008 - 7:18 AMAfter all this time, *NOTHING* has been changed regarding the FLAG situation. Why have a tribe suggestion/recommendation tribe to point out problems at all. the flag abuse has been going on for 2 YEARS now.
Either get rid of the flags completely or make the persons user name and pic available so they have to be held accountable for flag abuse.
It's like a different form of spam. Every single pic in several tribes I mod are flagged. Here's just one example from the solar mythology tribe:
