flags and community moderation

Our flagging system allows users to mark inappropriate postings and helps us weed weed out or categorize the posts accordingly.

By using the flagging feature located at the upper right corner of each post, you can take action if you feel a posting is inappropriate, by clicking on:

• miscategorized - wrong category/site, discusses another ad, otherwise misplaced
• prohibited - violates LS Posts Terms of Use or other posted guidelines
• spam(overpost) - posted too frequently, in multiple cities/categories, or is too commercial

If a post receives enough negative flags it will automatically be removed (only one flag per person per post is counted).

Users whose are always getting flagged are subject to staff review and additional remedial measures.

You can also nominate funny or memorable postings for inclusion in "best of".

Most of the posts that get flagged are in violation of the LiveSimon Posts terms of use or other posted guidelines.

If your post has been flagged off and you'd like help figuring out why, visit our flag help forum and provide the appropriate information about your posting to the helpful volunteers there.

Flagged postings that meet our guidelines and Terms of Use may be reposted, reworded as necessary.
