Already banned.

post #437908 "this isn't the original image and needs to be deleted"

Not really vandalism but it's a bizarre flag reason considering the post is sourceless.

Sent them a message and am discussing things with them.

I think I'm having a problem about this as well, I just notice this lately.

Apparently someone is flagging some of my post and despite their quality being good are no longer being approved again. And worse it seems it started for a year.

Looking at the flags in the last year, I'm not seeing any specific user targeting your uploads.

You can just click on the "Appeal" button on the sidebar for each post.

Okay, I just hope they'll be approved. I just wonder who keeps flagging them for deletion regardless of it's good quality.

10 different users have flagged your posts over the last year.

"very evidently shit" isn't a proper flagging reason, even if it is crossed out.

I mean, its probably some kind of ToS violation for being uncivil. But that doesnt make it an invalid flag reason. (not my flag btw)

I can't say I'm unbiased in this case, so I won't push any specific issue here. It was a legitimate use of the flagging system as a check on those with unmoderated posting permissions. I will say it is an unfortunate continuation of unnecessary hostility, which happens way too often here any more. I would say we ought to do what we can to push back and keep that aspect in check. State specifically what's wrong, and that should be sufficient. For some reason people here feel the need to be nasty to each other (moreso than I remember from the early days here), and I don't think it contributes to a good community.

I don't even know why you feel the need to answer that, but it should be obvious, that the general check for sure is valid. 'Breaking' the community rules is not, so it shouldn't be valid to flag like that too.

Regardless of whether the flag is valid or not, someone should DM the user asking them to not make unnecessarily hostile remarks in flags in the future.

"lowres" doesn't seem like a very good flagging reason.
