What a report does
Someone on our team reads it, and it moves the listing up the review queue.
What a report does not do
It doesn't remove a listing or penalise the artist, no matter how many reports come in. Otherwise reports would become a way to go after artists.
Reports aren't anonymous to us
We record who filed each report. The artist is never told who reported them, to avoid retaliation. Reporters do build a track record with us.
Reports from people with a good-faith record count slightly more. Abuse lowers that weight and can end with losing the ability to report. None of this is public or shown to the reporter.
Being cleared counts
When a report is closed with no violation, that outcome is recorded. It is not a public score.
