So, what's up with the "flag" button?
All members will have the ability to report posts that will now come directly to both moderator and admin attention. Keep in mind that TB will review and take appropriate actions. This flagging option is NOT to be used as a “dislike” button or on posts that may disagree with you, etc.
The Bump will keep records of all reported posts and handle abusers of this flagging privilege individually.
In addition to flagged posts, we will continue to address any violations of our Community Rules. Review them here.
What should I flag?:
Spam- Any posts advertising services
Harassment- If you feel a user is harassing a member to an extreme level.
Online Vandalism- Posts designed to raise a user’s post count.
Personal Information- Any post where a person’s personal information is being given without their consent. This includes name, telephone number, address, email address, work information, etc.
Impersonating Other Members/The Bump Employees- Any user name designed to be a copy of another user’s name or Knot Employee.
An obvious violation of the Community Rules should also be flagged: https://community.thebump.com/cs/ks/blogs/nest_baby_editors/pages/the-bump-community-rules.aspx

@SassyMommaC @YaMrWhite - I like the idea of an FAQ, but I also totally dislike the idea of giving "medical advice" on the internet. God forbid someone does have spotting or cramping that really IS something and then look back at us and be like, "BUT YOU SAID IT WAS OKAY!!"
I'll go ahead and add the flagging guidelines to the main post too
@YaMrWhite I put a medical disclaimer on the welcome page. It says that as a general rule we're not medical professionals (and if there are nurses, that's a different story) and told them to not look to internet strangers for advice and call their doc if they're really worried.
@SassyMommaC I'm with you on the miscarriage thing - absolutely nothing can be done at this point so there's no use in stressing. Maybe we can put that somewhere? or is that bitchy?

FYI I posted a thread where people can share their announcements. We will have to keep it bumped until someone can make it sticky. (Who can do that?)

Paging @DarcyHermione! Can you make the "Post Your Pregnancy Announcements Here" thread sticky for us?
