Wow, doesn't Answer Bag check out a flagged question before they reject it? I see nothing wrong with the question.
-
I have no idea. The only thing I can think of is that someone might assume that the anti bullying club would be bullies themselves. Other than that, it doesn't make sense to me either.

I have no idea. It seems really silly to reject a perfectly legitimate question like that, considering some of the crap on here that doesn't get rejected...

If I was you I would go to Feedback and ask them to reinstate the question. Say something like:"I'm asking to have my question reinstated. It says that the question is Profane/Suggestive/Abusive and I don't understand why it is to be considered Profane/Suggestive/Abusive. I don't think I did or said anything that is against Answerbag rules. So please reconsider and reinstate my question." "Thanks You Rich~LucyBell . Something like that Lucybell. See what they say. Never hurts to ask. +5

A legit question too me, don't know why AB rejected that question. +5
-
They probably don't like the idea of having a "club."
-
I dont know, strange
-
Maybe a bully complained because he felt harassed? I think the AB moderators need to do some explaining.
-
I'm surprised everyone missed the reason as to why. It's an open forum site, you have suggested against the site to form a "group" which can be antagonistic. You cannot rightfully form a club on a site unowned by you persay, and thats why it was rejected.

I see nothing wrong with the question either. <<<Shrugs>>>

1) The question was also "Asked Oct 31 2007", a long time away. Its last answer was given on Nov 2, 2007. This is the rejecting message: "PROBLEM: This question has been rejected. Rejected - Profane/Suggestive/Abusive" As far as I can see, this is an old kind of rejecting message: I think that this question has been rejected a long time ago, probably shortly after its last answer. 2) What is proposed in this question is something different than the later proposed Antitroll club, which gives users uprates when they have been downrated and eventually contact the Staff. As I understand it, the idea would be for the members to propose themselves as helper in a situation where an user is been bullied. The question is: what should such a group do in this situation? Try to bully the bully? Be a bully in their turn? 3) Actually, we have already a very good solution for such cases, as said in the Terms of Use. Such bullying conduct is just forbidden on Answerbag. So in the moment where bullying appears, you just stop the communication with the bully user and make a feedback to the Staff. It is the role of the Staff to handle those things, not the role of such an anti-Bullying club. I think this is the reason they rejected the question.

I suspect the moderator didn't read the question and follow-on properly, and assumed that it was advocating anti-social behaviour. Yet another recent example of poor moderation.
