Reporting content
How to report spam, harassment or illegal content — with or without an account — and what happens next.
With an account
Every publication and comment has a Report button. Pick a reason — spam, harassment, illegal content or other — and add a sentence of context if it helps. Reports from members of level L2 and higher carry more weight.
You can send up to 5 reports a day as a sprout and more at higher levels. When a moderator confirms that your report was useful, you get 3 points.
Without an account
Anyone can report illegal content under the EU Digital Services Act using the notice form. Please include the exact link, explain why it is illegal and confirm you are acting in good faith. You will receive a confirmation and, later, the decision by email.
What happens next
- The report enters the moderation queue, sorted by weight and urgency.
- A moderator reviews the content against the community rules and the law.
- If content is hidden or a sanction is issued, the author receives a statement of reasons and can appeal.
Reporting someone does not reveal your identity to them.
