    I should be able to add that function back in now :). If anyone has any suggestions for forum functionality, they are sometimes quite easy to add, so feel free to post them in our new page here. With the upgrade, it looks like there were a couple of things we missed out.

    We can definitely take this on as feedback. Our active users are great at spotting those who start something quite hostile, especially if it’s something they’ve done in the past. It can often derail otherwise genuine debate, which is why many are keen to shut those kind of comments down. I...

    Just a big thank you to those of you who are reporting spam on the forum! It makes mine and @Jessica Booker's job a lot easier because we can immediately see it in our reports. If anyone does see spam that hasn't been taken down, you can find the report button at the bottom of each post.
