Needs 25 characters so I'll repeat myself; How do I report post comments as being rude/disrespectful?

Why would you bother? If you're gonna let anonymous feedback get to you... you really need to toughen up.

Just tell a higher staff member and they can check and see who the comment was from and determine something from there. That's the best solution I can think of.

I looked into your post comments and determined that it'll need a discussion with other higher staff for a reason I'm not comfortable stating.

slightly off topic, but, can I ask who made a certain post comment, just for my curiosity? Or is it reserved for more serious situations?

No. It's reserved for staff for the purpose of keeping the anonymity of it and making it capable of moderators moderating them. It also reduces the purpose of flaming someone through them just because you got something you didn't like. Though, I must say, I don't understand why moderators specifically have that ability. Oh well.

Regardless of whether or not you let anonymous feedback get to you, it's arguably more important to let the person flaming others anonymously that it's not okay to do such a thing. Even if you don't give it any importance and/or meaning to yourself, you should still say something to the upper staff so they can do something about this person who thinks that post comments can be abused to anonymously flame other people.

So can they be reported then? Because I just got another one from presumably the same person regarding this thread.

Well, yeah. Like everyone else said, tell a staff member because if they really are that horrible, you don't want the posting to continue. Plus, you have all the evidence you need. :3

Your most recent one is absolutely fine. There's nothing disrespectful in it. But the one before is being dealt with accordingly.

This is a good point and I am slightly baffled as to why I didn't think of it before posting here.
