Yes. Flag it, posting here is optional.
I thought this thread was to share things that are flag-worthy, perhaps I get the purpose of the thread wrong
It is? The whole point is to post games/movies that are against the rules
Kind of. The purpose of this thread is:
- to post things that need immediate action, like real-porn clips, or those screamers that take over your printer.
- to post questions about content you're unsure about, like that ad agency submission.
- to post ...I dunno, other stuff.
Then I was confused. I thought they said if I flagged it I didn't need to come here and post it as well.
You don't need to post general flags here. ...unless you want users copying and pasting your flag report to bump up their own whistle status using the work that you did, and doing nothing on their own. We do tend to get to things a bit faster when posted here, but...
Thar be whistle point trolls about, gents...

Well, if the mods change it, they'll clear your flag. If it's changed by the author, they'll clear it and won't dock your whistle points, 'cause they know what your intention was, so don't worry about it.
Pretty much, yeah. :)
