This feels about the right place for this one! But feel free to make it a question if that makes more sense.

Just recently, there’s been an increase of spam and hacking attempts from “security researchers” on the OVO Forum. For most of it, a quick Flag and blam! @timcavey destroys it for me. But the Ideation module doesn’t seem to support Flagging and as it’s publicly accessible on the OVO Forum, makes it harder to reliably report such junk and ping all moderators at once about it.

While it’s fairly easy for me to warn these “security researchers” that the OVO Forum is out-of-scope for bug bounties and vulnerability disclosure programs (the poor quality efforts I’ve seen would barely qualify anyway), it’s a little painful that it’s the only area of the forum that I can’t use the Flag tool on.

It would be really great if I could though!

Hi @Blastoise186! Indeed, we’re currently missing the option to flag a post for ideas and product updates and it is something we will be introducing. I merged your idea into the one above as they are identical.
