Reports - Add little descriptions.

[Troublesomee]

Hi there!

I recently see a lot of players struggling with reporting if there new to it. Some people often don't know where they should report something under. That's why I am suggesting this.

Add little descriptions to some of the reporting options. I made an example.
(Not good at paint, pls forgive me)

I'd be an absolute mess if every reporting option had a description like this, so here are two examples to make it overseeable.
1) Put the text in a spoiler.
2) Make the frame larger.
There's no need to give a description to the ''Use of illegal client'' ones, as it's evident.

Any feedback/ideas will be greatly appreciated!

Literally none of those require a definition.
I’d be rather concerned about one’s English skills if they don’t know what any of those words mean, and if they don’t there is always Google.

None of these needs bigger description . Everyone knows what is swearing , also when you click it , you can see in the orange field : Warning! This offence may require the user to have been warned before they can be punished.

At any rate, the wording you have suggested for swearing above is likely to bamboozle any less confident reader out of reporting.

I wouldnt say more description there I think that they need to put a link to the guidlines etc on the create new report page as something like that would be a bit to bulky. Also they shouldnt be reporting people if they dont know what the rule is that has been broken

If you don't know what swearing means at all, I think you shouldn't report someone in the first place. They could make themselves more clear in the rules and make it almost required to read those first before reporting someone.

“Warning! This offence may require the used to have been warned before” isn’t really a description, though.

Thanks for all the comments.

You don’t need a dictionary to know what this stuff is

Lol

Someone please lock, I got enough comments from the no-voters and they’re simply right. [:

Okay, you wanted a comment, so here I am! :]
I don't really like your idea because you can also look it up in the rules, and descriptions would make everything messy.

I think most of the options when selecting reports are usually pretty straight forward and most players understand them. Although in some cases players may have difficulty with speaking/writing english and may not be able to tell the difference between "bullying" and "swearing", but the staff member dealing with the report will notice and apply the proper punishment.

On top of that, the rules are pretty clear on forums and if ever they still didn't understand something, a staff member would most likely be able to clarify the issue at hand.

We know, but a lot of people don't read the rules.

Forget to add something else xD, even though I agree with your suggestion, because it would be a good detail to see the description of each rule, while reporting.
