but the person deletes it after you sent the post to a moderator, does it still show what was posted?

Super. Someone posted something they shouldn't have and I reported. They then deleted it, so there's no trace of it. I know others saw it, though.

Looks like the problem has been solved, temporarily.

I don't want this to turn into a RTPTM war. 99.9999% of members don't have to worry about this, this feedback thread and the issue that prompted it have been addressed.
Also, we're working on bringing on more mods to jump on RTPTM's so it'll become less of an issue if we're able to jump quickly onto problem threads.

If you are concerned that they might delete their comments, it's probably a good idea for you go ahead and quote them, as well as reporing them, so there is a record for us to review.

you know.. if you guys have any contact with the vbulletin creators
that really is a feature that should be available.. that if someone hits the report this post to a moderator.. it really should include the post in the sent message..
it seems as though that would be an easy enough feature to add.. and could make a moderators job easier, if they can see the questionable post up front and then make the decision on whether it needs immediate action or can wait a little while.

Thanks for responding quickly. Hopefully you can get this moderator situation squared away soon.
Might I suggest making one of the Red Sox fans (Mad Dawg or chrisih8u) mods in the sports forum?

Exactly. I shouldn't have to cut+paste or do a screen cap to send to a moderator. Even those could be fraudulent.

It would only be fair because all the other mods and admins are blatently pro-Yankee! Which I conclude from their lack of Yankee bashing posts.
