Flags are a problem!

I don't know if this fits help or feedback

I went feedback

Anyways, picture this:

You're having a good day on the Forums

Just having fun and commenting a random posts you see

You share an opinion and somebody opposes it

The two of you argue and you don't think anything of it

It was just a friendly disagreement

Later, you log back on and your argument comments and over 50 other random ones have been flagged!

Most of them there is no reason behind!

Flagged!

All because of a disagreement.

That's not at all fair

I say the flag system needs removed

Most people use it as a disagree button instead of using the actual disagree button, and some take it to this extreme

Look at @Thur55555555555 for example

198 flags over absolutely nothing

And their flagger took it to an even further extreme, flagging anyone that supports Thur

If this is how flags are being used then they shouldn't be an option!

And I know, it's not like flags do anything

You just get two points removed

But it's still an issue that someone can go through and just spam it like Thur's attacker did

If you don't remove the reaction, at least make sure there are human workers going through the flags, ensuring that they are actually reasonable

I will post something like this once a week until a change happens

Thanks for your time!
