Is Flag Anomymous
I flag stuff all the time.
What difference does it make if the hubber knows who flagged it?
I mean, flagging only asks a moderator to view the hub for any violations that might have been perceived.
If someone accidentally stepped over the rules, then I would think that they would be glad it was found?
Granted, there is a lot of stuff that can be flagged, but seriously, why should it matter. You're helping the community and the hubber.
I have no problem with criticism on my hubs. If I have a bunch of things wrong with or if it violates some rule, and staff doesn't see it, then I would rather be protected.
To me it's a win-win.
It's completely anonymous. And it won't actually do anything - other than bring it to the staff's attention.
Only a staff member can unpublish/ban or otherwise change a user or hub status.
So you've got nothing to worry about.

Feature suggestion: Hub Hopping Feedback
I'm not sure if I have mentioned this before here, so: it would REALLY help if we got feedback on stuff we flag - if only on the stuff that admins decide does NOT warrant action. Many times I have been hesitant to flag because I'm not sure - just a little feedback would make me much...

Staff: How long after flagging a hub do you take to do something?
Dear staff. There are violations being done by many people who have been on HP for many months and even years. Some people have 90% of their hubs in violation. Sometimes I wonder how long it takes after the initial flagging by the community for you to do something, because there have been times...
