As I understand it, user reports go to the community, the community’s instance, as well as the user’s instance if the user is from a separate instance.
My concern is if a user is breaking instance rules across multiple communities it might not rise to a level to catch the attention of instance admins. If my understanding (^) is correct I imagine there is an absolute flood of reports at the instance level making the correlation of reports against a particular user hard to single out.
Is my understanding wrong? Or maybe reports are automatically correlated? Or failing that is there a way to report a user directly to instance admins?
If you are making reports and don’t think they’re reaching the admin, which IIRC can happen if the community mods solve the report first, you can always just DM the admins with your case and evidence.
