Profile picture for cocmt
If I am already logged in to the site, why do I have to enter my information again just to flag a spam posting?

good question... seems like, in addition to the "flag content" button... you ought to have "report spam" button.... that doesn't require anything more than pushing it once.

flagging a content doesn't necessarily imply that it's a spam, it can be because of foul language, or flooding the forum with the same posting or personal attacts to other user....

yeah... but you shouldn't have to re-enter your e-mail address, in order to "flag" it... as long as you're logged in.. it should KNOW your address... dontcha think?

Almay-
if logged in to Zillow, you actually don't have to enter your e-mail address to flag content (it auto-populates that field in the background)

ahh... good to know... thanx.

now if you could just have some radio buttons inside the "flag content" area.... for
* spam
* language
* threatening
* obnoxious...

or whatever, that'd save a step, too

You're the one with the groupies...lol

Does zillow intend to post their new guidelines so we can all be sure we are within the rules?

I think their new guidelines are:

* If we get enough flags... I guess we'll have to do something - heavy sigh -.
* If Carrie, Marci & Almay keep sending all those dagnab flags, we'll have to ban them to keep our sanity. (do I sound a bit jaded?)

It's probably to draw attention to the fact that "Yes, you are sending a report of some kind to Zillow". People sometimes get click happy or worse, maybe you accidentally didn't logout at the office and the person behind you didn't notice.

Stranger things have happened.
