Inappropiate flagging

I'm speaking for a friend here, but I was wondering if the flag button's purpose is being abused. She recently had her project flagged into oblivion after she got in a fight with another Scratcher. While her project had absolutely no inappropriate material, it was still removed. What should she do, because as far as I know, she's pretty peeved.


This will be replaced by an awesome sig from here soon!  big_smile  http://blocks.scratchr.org/API.php?user=normal_girl&action=onlineStatus&online=http://i41.tinypic.com/314ast1.jpg&offline=http://i42.tinypic.com/24g9j5h.jpg

Re: Inappropiate flagging

If a project is flagged so much that it is removed, then it will be checked by the ST the next time they are checking the flags, and if they see that the flaggers were just being mean, then they will be banned, so don't worry.  smile

She should click the "contact us" button. Then she can tell the scratch team about the pointless flagging.

People who abuse the flagging system will be banned.
