Flagging a post will send it to the Goodreads Customer Care team for review. We take abuse seriously in our discussion boards. Only flag comments that clearly need our attention. As a general rule we do not censor any content on the site.

We will not remove any content for bad language alone, or being critical of a particular book.Barry Lyga's blog
