Click on the little red triangle with the "!" in it and report the inappropriate actions.

It's at the bottom left of the message pane and looks like this:

It was in 2 messages. I do not see that symbol there.

Look over under the avatar and/or username of the person who made the post (on the far left).

That symbol is not under their name.

That seems odd.

Next option then would be to go to the post and click on the number in the upper right corner of the specific post message (your post above mine says #6). From that post, copy the url, and then PM one of the moderators or administrators, telling them of the harassment and sending them the url.

Btw, what's the post count on the person? If it's really low and the person has a way to remove the report links from his messages, the folks running this place really need to know about it.

It's at the bottom left of every message. See it down there on this one?

Not odd at all see below.

What gasrocks did not mention was that he is talking about a private message which do not have a report button. So the best action in those cases is to forward it to a moderator. (which has been done in this case I think).

Was it in a public post or a Private Message?

It it was in a PM then put the sender on your "Ignore List" and you will not receive PMs from them.

Wow, and all this time I thought name calling was okay.

I got a lot of people that I gotta report. :lol:

No need, Mark. We already know who they are - they all reported you.
