2. Click on the "Flag as inappropriate" option. A dialogue box will pop up asking you to confirm this action - keep in mind doing so will report the comment and permanently hide it from you:
3. Next, the comment will enter the flagged queue for review by our Moderation Team. You won't need to do anything else - if we find the comment to be part of a pattern of spammy or abusive behaviors, the user in question will be permanently banned from the Insticator Commenting platform.

- From the menu, select 'Report this comment':
- You will be prompted to select a reason for reporting the comment. In this step, you also have the option to add additional comments to provide more context. Once you've made your selection and added any necessary details, click 'Report':
