> You should report [what you consider] violations to Dr. Bob by email or via the report this post button. Dr. Bob has requested that reports about chat include a cut and pasted chat screen containing the violations including the fingerprint (string of numbers) at the top of each screen. I don't know if this is required or suggested.
And let's consider that required.
> If I understand correctly, Dr. Bob will then decide whether the situation falls under his new guidelines on when he will enforce Please Do Not Posts. I'm not sure the procedure after that, because how is the poster to know whether Dr. Bob will decide to enforce that particular request. I'd be interested to hear the procedure myself.
