How often do you report posts? I see plenty of insulting, ranting and adult posts, but do you bother reporting these, ignore them or reply?

    I never report. There is no reward or points or anything for reporting at all. That pretty much discourages from being a moderator

    How very true. I ignore these types of posts. I hope others do as well. Avoiding them altogether will hopefully discourage repeat offenses.

    I report criminal activity, violence and underage users. The rest get a free ride as they aren't harming anyone.

    I reply usually, unless it's really stupid. I only report things if people are being prejudice.

    I'll report them. Most often, though, I'm reporting answers ("tips --->") instead of questions.
