What the Mod said about the alerts could very well be the same argument used for the recs.
Simple truth of the matter it boils down to the Mods discretion if a post is removed or not. We know how that works. 😉

The admins here at RHP need to give the mods an option to grant alerts to non-subs, and the ability to take th ...[text shortened]... if for some reason the non-sub decides they will abuse the alert system.

More interesting is what long-term members are not trustworthy enough. Name names.
I don't think we will see anyone do that though.
I don't see any need for panic though because 5 ALERTS will remove a post. Who knows perhaps someday that is the way it will be?
