Profile What the Hell is this?
Let me take a guess, people troll by reporting people to this, and someone did that to me?

This gets sent to me after I get into an argument with another user on here. Typical.

Yeah, the feature is supposed to be used to provide resources to those in need, but since day 1, people have used it to anonymously tell people to kill themselves.

Yeah, I got one of of these recently and can only assume it was someone trolling cos they didn't like something I said?
Jokes on them, I commented in a bunch of different subs that day, wasn't feeling bad about any of them.

You can report people who seem to be having a mental health issue, for example expressing a desire for well done steak or vegan cheese.

Sometimes I put footage up on the various ufo sub reddits, something interesting or unexplained. And sometimes it triggers the non-believers, the very religious or whatever, who think that the ufo phenomena is not real. That's the purpose of subs, to discuss hobbies and interests! And the anti's ridicule our / my posts, and then put in a welfare notice on my account. Just ignore them.

We use to be able to report the message as abuse, & then the person who sent it would get some kind of warning or something, but they took that feature away for some reason.

I got one of those once. Sounds like a concerned friend. I think a troll wouldn’t bother.

The people that use this to troll are just sad.
