I wish to thank the many people of this thread for explaining exactly what an 'abusive' post is, and the method in which to combat it. Truly an eye-opener.
It is disheartening to go through the reviews on a movie / game that you have just watched or played, and see nothing but caps or swear words or slams. Furthermore, it clearly states in the rules that reviews should be for just that: reviews. Not a posting of a contrary position of a review. They are there for us to empower the artist with suggestions or encouragements.
After reading this thread, I felt confident enough to go ahead and flag a couple of reviews - I'm afraid though that I accidentally hit 'abusive' to one, rather than the 'no' button. Hope that doesn't break my whistle. :) (I am going to be fairly cautious in the future that I hit the correct buttons - I like this site, and am grateful for its presence. I want to see it cleared up to the benefit of all, as well.)
Once again, thank you for the enlightenment. Ciao for now!
One other thing, and I beg forgiveness at my ignorance: what is 'outwar'? I have never heard of the beast before, and cannot seem to get a clear image of it even after google-ing it. Please assist? Thank you.
