I want to report comments and posts that break the rules. But a user said that is considered spamming if I do it too much. What are the rules considering reporting?

      Yes, that’s why I want to know the rules around reporting, so I don’t get banned. Unless I can be banned without breaking the rules?

        There's some discretion used for sure, mods are humans. I don't think there's a rule about reports in general but if something is rule-breaking go for it.

        Can't speak for the mods here but years and years ago I used to mod some less conventional game modes in Garry's Mod. If someone otherwise seemed to be taking it seriously but were reporting a ton of stuff and wasting our time, I'd just tell them to knock it off and only ban if they kept at it for some reason.

          Ok.

          The lack of specific rules is concerning. There should be a rule that says only 10 reports a day or something. Or only one report per (offending) user.

          Thank you for the answer.
