alerts can be more subjective but sometimes you make mistakes or the jury does, don't sweat it - or if you think it was completely off base you can appeal - just follow the instructions in the message you got.

I would even be careful asking too many questions about it, sometimes people will alert on those as well. If it crosses into whining or "interfering with forum moderation" as it listed. (I think I have had a hide based on that )

I think it is just an hour. Kali Sep 2018 #1

You can always appeal it. I had a post removed, and when I appealed it, my appeal was granted. Tipperary Sep 2018 #23

The general lack of feedback in the alert / jury / post-hiding system does not help DU Bernardo de La Paz Sep 2018 #18
+1. And the lack of an opportunity to rebut or clarify ones intent is likewise problematic. nt FreepFryer Sep 2018 #20
You can appeal if you disagree with having a post removed. Tipperary Sep 2018 #24
