Offensive comments can detract from the community experience and violate platform guidelines.

Any user can report a comment they can see: this will send a notification to admins, who can then archive the comment.

  3. On the bottom right, click REPORT.

The post is then automatically hidden from the user who reports the comment.

Handle a report

Admins can archive reported comments. If a comment is reported more than 5 consecutive times, it is automatically archived without any action from an admin, and an email is sent to the admins.

  2. At the top right of the comment, click 3Dots.svg → Archive. 

Archiving the comment will send an email to the user who reported the comment, and to the user who wrote the comment, indicating to them that the post is now archived.
