I've added a few new things to the logger. First, you can now link to a specific message on the logs. To get the special URL for a message, just click on the username next to the message in question and it'll pop up in a new window. It might be better to start a bit before the message you want to show, as that message will be on the very top. Here's an example: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/4753340/PTC%20Wikia%20Chat%20Logs/2014/4/9.html#774523820. The top message should be Pixel saying "THAT IS DISGUSTING".

With this new feature, hopefully it'll be easier to link to exactly what you want in the logs. Just note that this only applies to messages made since today; older messages in the logs won't do this.

The next big thing is the reporting system. The admins have discussed ways to make the chat a little less crazy, and we've decided to go with a reporting system. You are able to report 2 times a day, and you submit your reports directly to the bot just like bot directives (this means typing a message like you always do). If you were to report me, it would look like:

/report Randomouscrap98

If you want to provide a reason, just state the reason in a separate message just before/after the report message. The reports will be collected and displayed on a webpage which is publicly viewable (although I won't link it right now). The reports will be ordered based on those with the highest report count, so those of you who have been really bad will be right at the top when I check it. I'll be able to see exactly who reported you, when they did so, and I'll get a link to the report message in the logs. This allows me to check to make sure you're not reporting someone for no good reason.

PLEASE NOTE: I will NOT tolerate random reports or reports made just because you don't like someone. If I see that you have placed a report for no good reason, YOU will be banned instead. Also note that since you only get 2 reports per day, don't go "spending" them for silly stuff.
