How to report a post
Report spam, abuse or rule-breaking in a question or answer.
Updated 29 Oct 2026
If a question or answer breaks the community rules, report it.
To report
- Log in.
- Open the post and use Report.
- Choose the reason that fits best and send it.
What happens next
- Your report is private. The author is not told who reported.
- Enough reports on a post can hide it until a moderator reviews it.
- A moderator then restores the post or keeps it hidden.
Please
- Report rule-breaking, not posts you simply disagree with. Reply with a better answer instead.
- Do not report the same post more than once.
- Misusing reports can lead to action on your own account.
