Appealing moderation

If your piece of content, or your account is flagged for moderation, then a member of the Arm Community team will review inside our moderation queue. There are different reasons why something may be flagged in the Arm Community.

Sometimes another member may report something, or one of our automated tools may flag something. On some occasions, genuine content or accounts may be flagged. Please note, just because your post or account has been flagged, it does not mean you have breaking any of our house rules. It may be there is a link we need to check is safe, or some repetitive text has triggered one of our spam monitoring tools (this happens with code blocks for example). Please see  Why has my content been reported? for more information.

When a community member has either their content or account go into moderation, they receive a notification. The notifications look like so:

The member will receive a notification letting them know of the moderation decision. You can see the notification for both an account flag and a content flag here:
