Very quick: How to look up moderation reports on BGA? Against oneself that is.

I would assume, that thats possible after just exploring the route how to contest a moderation, the right way; Since it asks for an report URL.
It is forbidden to contest them in forum, which is a pity, because it was really funny :D

Thanks in advance^^

Edit:
Answer:
Omg, what an nice UI. :?

To whom it may concern, it works that way:
paste URL: https://boardgamearena.com/moderated

and in that section, there is the URL:
If your moderation does not match the BGA moderation policy:

- Note the following reference (report URL): http://boardgamearena.com/report?id=*an ... er=*anoned* <-- This one with numbers instead of *anoned*

- Contact us though Support below, choosing "Contest a moderation" category

- explain why the moderators decision does not respect the moderation policy.

Edit2:
Limitations! : If you got moderated twice, you only see the most recent one !! :D

xDD

ok actually thanks - but that makes me even more confused, since it is expected to post the url of the report when you challenge a mod decision.

Ah, you meant your own moderation?
If you got moderated, maybe you can take a screenshot of a notification you received, of your profile page, or of a forum discussion where the moderation has applied.

If I had tried to challenge mine, and run into the same issue, then I probably would've gone with

in the absence of me finding anything better,
the URL that ends up in my address bar when BGA shows me the report
is the URL of the report

, ​ ​ ​ even if the URL that ends up there is just ​ https://boardgamearena.com/ .


(though, with an explanation in the challenge if I had made one without finding a more specific URL)

Don't you get anything in your profile?

In the past, after I reported some other player and a decision was taken, I could see a link to the report/decision in their profile. I assume this was not public and only I could see it. Maybe you can see something similar in your own profile (hopefully without the report, which should be anonymous).

Nope nothing - maybe the decision is annulled - thanks for your help.
(It is curious though how little information about that one can find through official channels)
