Flagging does not automatically remove a post. Staff still have to review it.

Surely that's to stop people being able to maliciously remove posts... or am I being naive?

Yes, I'm pretty sure you're right. People would be maliciously removing posts right and left if they could.

Yes, IMO. I block people that leave vile comments...IF I see them attacking friends. I most certainly think they (we) should be able to report them

Yes. There are more offensive posts as of lately. Everybody should be able to "flag" such posts.

I think that we should be able to flag. i think the fact that the person who has posted has blocked us i think we should still be able to flag - offensive and repulsive is not less offensive or repulsive because the person who posts it has blocked people who find it offensive or repulsive.

What you do is copy the permalink, go to the "Report Abuse" link at the bottom of the page, and report them anyway. Their being blocked isn't a factor.

There are a few I don't block so I can keep reporting them. But I would block them in a minute if I could keep flagging them.

You can still report people even if blocked.

Yes I know, not that it does much good in some cases, but I like to do both.

No sometimes it does no good, at all.

However I'm big believer in schadenfreude; when inevitable legal repercussions happen, I will be there to laugh, heartily.

I agree, Sister, but I permalink repulsive posts and contact "Report Abuse" at the bottom of the page giving them the link and my reason for the report.

If unable to flag due to having been blocked by or blocking an individual; you can still report the about by copying and pasting the poll, comment, and user in a "report abuse" email at the bottom of the screen.

"flag" no..."report" yes. I believe you can directly report offensive posts even if you are the blocker or the blockee.
