I'm not a moderator, but I do know many who are either current or former moderators. With that in mind, I just thought I'd take this opportunity to clarify something that is perhaps not well understood by many who get notified that one of their posts has been reported for a rule violation.

The policy in place currently with the moderator staff requires them to notify a member any time an posting of theirs is reported to them. This is regardless of whether or not that post is actually in violation of the rules. Heck, even I have been notified on more than one occasion that a posting of mine was reported to the moderators. But more often than not, the moderators look at it and decide what I said was ok and life goes on.

So a notification like that simply means that someone has reported your post. Not that you necessarily have violated any rules. I think it is important to recognize that distinction.
