Automated email reply MSE different?

barnabee

I reported a post on one of the threads this afternoon using the 'Report Post' little icon, (the red bordered triangular one with the exclamation mark in the middle).

I normally get an email back stating the post wil be viewed by the MSE team. But today I got a completely different email starting with:

This is an automatic reply that should help you deal with the issue – please carefully read the FAQ links below to answer your questions.

and a whole list of links to FAQ.

Not much point having a report post icon if all you get is an email with an email telling you how to report a post.

Too many changes going on MSE at the moment that are getting more irritating. Lots of disquiet on the compers thread.

Provided you left the "subject" as the default of abuse then you will get the automated reply to say the post will be reviewed. However if you change the default from abuse to something else then you will get the email containing FAQ.
