Checking outcome to reports.

[rafaeltiro]

Recently I found a mod someone uploaded using art he clearly did not own or showed any signs of crediting or asking for permission from the original uploader (especially obvious duo to his additional "artwork" which apeares to be edits of the original in MS Paint) yet the mod is still up, is there a way to check what happens to reports made? To check if it was seen by someone or the reasoning as to why the mod is still up?

We do not provide "updates" or publish the results of Reports.

Once an investigation is completed, actions such as removing a mod may be taken, or not.

In most cases, a lack of action means one of two things:

 

(1) The results of the investigation did not warrant any action, or;

 

(2) The Staff have not completed (or perhaps not even started) the investigation.

 

NOTE: The two most common reasons for the first outcome above (No Action) when an investigation has been completed are: an "Invalid Report", (the evidence doesn't support, and/or additional evidence contradicts the claim) and; "Lack of evidence in the Report".

 

Using your query as an example, no matter how correct the claim, if the Report did not contain a link to the original source material we would close it and move on. The relatively tiny staff of the Nexus do not have the time to play internet detective. Not saying that this was the case with your specific Report, just giving a general picture.
