my bosses have talked to me on a weekly basis about how reported my posts are, commenting that 90% of the things I say are 100% okay but that people seem to report me due to the fact that I Write reviews.  it's been discussed at length.  While I certainly say a lot of things that get people going, for good or bad, I do get reported more since I'm a writer.  

I don't do anything ban-worthy, jsut a lot of stuff straddling the line and I'm expected to be more neutral/drama-free since I'm a writer. 

So yes, more scrutiny is on me since I'm a writer. 


Do you know how much other users get reported? Because I know many report me I have no doubt I get reported on a regular basis sometimes with cause other times 100% innocence. You may get reported for reviews since I don't actually read your reviews I wouldn't know if you've done anything to cross the line. But 1UP is notorious for crossing the line and reviewers on many other sites do cross the line from proffesional to rude and offensive.

I myself have never reported you for anything that wouldn't get me a warning or ban. Maybe by the current mod teams standards you don't do anything ban worthy but Rol , Myself and several other users were banned for saying and doing far less then some of the stuff you have done.

I don't know how much you get reported or which threads your reported in. If your reviews are getting reported by fan boys upset with the review that's perfectly understandable and as a writer your going to take flack for your reviews all writers do. I got hate mail on a regular basis and fan mail. There will always be people who enjoy your reviews and others who will get upset. It comes with the territory.

So no I'm not sure if you are reported more because your a writer. From some of the posts I've seen they just either straddle the line or in rare cases go to far.

But in the end I don't even know why you care if you get reported. If the mod team finds you innocent and the majority of users believe you were right then it shouldn't matter what one or two users think. Unless your getting 100+ reports in which case well maybe you should rethink your posts.

But your always going to have haters and people who disagree no point in getting upset about it.
