I guess it's the luck of the draw whether or not the moderators are looking.

I think the button was hit. Big difference. We should be able to know who hits the button? Might stop a lot of frivolous 'abuse button' pushers if their screen name was going to be made public. Pretty easy to hide and accuse people anonymously.

That's a darned good idea. The "ability to confront your accuser" was a foundation of this nation for this exact reason.

Would probably make the moderation easier too, and make the whole thing more transparent to all users.

I hope they take this suggestions. I'm suprised nobody thought of it before.
