does alerting more than once get a post locked any faster?

there's a disgusting troll thread out there I'd like to kill but I don't want to bug the mods with more than one alert if it is just a pain to them.

1. The mods like it when you alert multiple times. Keep it up!

10. thanks - that's why I didn't want to bug them, but I have no idea where the alerts "go"

or how they appear. In any case, it got zapped shortly after I posted this, which was right after my alert on it. Some nut ought to get a little visit from the Secret Service.

6. You should alert.

Alternatively, you could let all of us know which thread it is. :evilgrin:

9. Just like pushing an elevator button.

:rofl:

Seriously, though - just alert once. Don't flood the mods with alerts. They might not get to it immediately, but they will get to it.

And if you flood them, they just might put you on time out for a while.
