Reporting a post/thread for low priority reasons

    Hi, Just a suggestion, maybe a mod might give a point of view on this:

    I sometimes come across in the work and jobs forum, but similarly in others:
    1. Old threads related to specific recruitment campaigns/discussions that are long gone
    2. Threads unnecessarily being revived when newer more relevant threads already exist
    3. New threads opened; which related to an already existing thread

    I sometime report these if I think they could be merged or closed, but I also think they're less important than a posts or threads being reported for abuse.

    I don't mind doing a bit of housekeeping but I also wouldn't like annoying a specify mod with minor matters. Something that may require their attention but is not urgent.

    Could I suggest having a separate button, or perhaps even an option within the report section, to report things of a lower priority as mentioned above?

    It's still ok to use the report button to alert a mod to any of these things, it doesn't always have to be used to report a problem with the content of a post.

    We have very little availabel dev time at the moment for new features so it is unlikely that we'd get something like this done any time soon with a report button already in existence.
