How exactly DO you report things on Reddit and how do you message mods?

Lets take a journey down the sidebar! So of course, we have the rules, then we have the disclaimer about custom flair, related subreddits, and then an advertisement. Below the advertisement, we have the Make Someone's Day button (that's how to submit a post) and below that, a box listing the mods and a small button on the upper right of it that says message the moderators. Click that, and a message will be made to us.

To report, look below the body of any post, there should be a button that says report. Please click this only if you think it's breaking rules, not just if you don't like someone.

I think that was my bad. I'm new here, and I hit Report on that "tell me a joke" thread that was resolved after only two hours.

However there's no mention on the sidebar about messaging the mods about a report. I am pretty sure that I read it before participating in this subreddit, and I'm rereading now to make sure I didn't miss it.

And you did the right thing reporting it. You're right though, its not explicitly stated in the rules to message the mods if you report, but it's considered good taste to do so in many subreddits, for the same reason it's appreciated on here; it helps speed up moderating.

I totally get why it would be preferred, not disagreeing there. I just find that explicitly stating expectations leaves no ambiguity

I will put that in the sidebar then.

Nope, not this. Snitches help create a better, less polluted community, not bogged down by scammers, leechers, and general ne'er-do-wells.

EDIT: Of course, someone thought it would be fun to go back, edit their comment and have what I assume is an alt post the same comment in response to mine. KejsiBihcoh originally said "Snitches get Stitches."
