How do you report insults/harassment from bug reports?

Post by Kayvon »

The reporting system checks private messages, forum posts, and game tables. There's no apparent way to report issues from bug report comments.

I know Xate said at one point that BGA would take that seriously, but there doesn't seem to be a way to actually report them. The best a developer can do is delete the offending comments.

I usually just PM xate with the links to the bug reports

What I did (and this worked):

What kind of problem did you have with X? - X behaved inappropriately in the chat
Where did this happen? - In the forum or elsewhere

'In the chat' is quite misleading, as the reporter can also select newsfeed, forum, and etc.

Thanks for both suggestions. I'll refer to these if it comes up again.
