    I think the abuse button is very badly positioned as when you have pressed the thanks button, the abuse button moves to that spot and if you're not looking properly you may press it thinking it's the thanks button.

    It doesn't report abuse anyway, it just opens outlook, which personally, makes my pc crash.
  • Twotimes, I agree on both counts.

    Is there anyway you could put the "Abuse" button on the left next to the "green button" that shows your online/offline there is a couple of times ive accidently clicked it instead of the thanks button when in compitions section ...

    I have already clicked "Abuse" 8 times when I wanted to thank. The email window opened and of course I got rid of it but it's a bit irritating I must say.
    Be careful who you open up to. Today it's ears, tomorrow it's mouth.

    Earlier today the abuse thingy was a button like the thanks and quote button then it went back to a little triangle, thought it would have for everybody but then I just pressed ctrl and f5 and now it's big button again, I can't keep up! :rotfl:

    Wish I hadn't pressed ctrl and f5 though because I can see this getting very annoying!
