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 suggestion. I'm suprised nobody thought of it before.

You fellas aren't clear on the concept. The moderation on FR is purposely set up to be anonymous. - It's a question of control.

The moderators can still be anonymous. It's the accusers or abuse button pushers that should have their screen names shown.

(Back from a 1-3 day suspension, for pointing out to a mod their unfair suspension of another poster.)
