Community Moderation & Reported Posts
As discussed in this thread, we're making changes in order to improve the atmosphere of Northwest Firearms. This new system will remove threads or posts which are reported by multiple members, placing them in a 'moderation queue'. After review a moderator will choose to delete or restore the item (depending on whether the complaints are valid) and issue an appropriate warning (if needed).
