Reporting admin of another forum??

by krazee08 9/10/2010, 17:02

Is it possible to report a forum to forumotion itself, rather than reporting it to the admin of said forum? As it is the admin that has been causing the problem. I know there is the report abuse button, but that goes to the forums admin, and so too it seems does the report thing i've managed to find on here.

Any help much appreciated!

To answer your question. Has the admin broke the Terms of Service? If not I wouldn't bother wasting your time to report as it won't go through.

I had an arguement with a couple of the mods on his forum but the arguement was on facebook not his forum. I have since started my own forum, which is in no way a rival forum as we have different sections etc, but anyone who joins my forum that is also a member on his forum he is banning from there, when they havent said or done anything wrong. He also joined my forum under a false username and email address and spammed with very explicit pictures and other content in ALL threads. I have banned the account but hes now doing the banning people from his forum because theyve joined me thing. Its upsetting a lot of the members, and the only option they have is the report abuse button but that goes to the admin.

Hope all that makes sense.
Thanks for the links to FAQ etc i did have a look but could only find details on reporting to the admin, which wouldnt work on this occasion

Yes, because personal issues can't be solved by us.

If his forum, has anything illegal, only then you can report it to us.

Thankyou,
although it started as personal issues, its not turned into him banning people for no reason whatsoever, which is upsetting some of those people. He seems to also be hiding the fact that he has banned them from the other members, as it does not show "banned" on their profile. I believe the only reason he would hide it is because he knows hes in the wrong.

Thanks again for clearing it up though, could you please give me the link to where to report him if something against the terms of service should occur in the future.
