Poor moderation or help

I made a report about a number and it was sent to moderation. I asked a question in the thread and a member answered it just fine.

There was a second member "Slim" and she badgered me , not reading or understanding what i was concerned about. After posting back and forth, she labeled me a troll, even though i was only posting replies to her replies. She started flagging my posts an putting them into moderation, then leaving her comment as the "last word".

I posted lots of numbers over the years and now i wont bother. There are plenty of sites people can get info on phone numbers , so i'll comment to them instead.

I read the comments below and that AnonMouse person sounds pretty upset for not being this Slim person. Thats pretty convincing for me to stay away from there, cause you wouldn't want to see how upset I'd get if someone like that tried bullying me!

Smart thing for me to do is just avoid that kind of kid stuff.

Guest

Its very interesting you should come here and try to "spin" things to make you and your buddies look innocent, Slim. I was fine with what BigA posted and was done until you decided you wanted to play the "your-a-troll" game.

I had no idea what i was getting into or i wouldnt have bothered to reply to you. Your the one who didnt read what we discussed and your the one who didnt understand what i was posting about. Once you did realize it, you turned it into "your being nasty" and deleted them. I never got nasty, i only said you were calling me a troll and i commented in defense, but still not nasty nor was it a TOS violation.

You deleted the post i made that had information about Nomorobo being the owner of that number, but you didnt like that either and deleted it, then posted your own "Important Announcement" which wasnt nearly as informative as mine.

You people over there just dont play well with others and want to be cyber bullies. I feel sorry for the victims yet to discover the beating they will encounter just for trying to be helpful.

Hubert Tib

I will explain-calmly. The person who put this up (going by the name 'John' on the site) had it explained to him that his spammed posts were in the wrong place and was politely told the proper place where his posts should be.

'John' got belligerent and began acting like a troll, going so far as to threaten other posters that they would be sorry. Also, do not blame me for the posts that are starred out-they were in no way vulgar, it's just that pissedconsumer has a VERY aggressive filter and I'm still learning what triggers it.

Anyways, if you're going to threaten people that are trying to help you, you're going to get called out over there-and coming here is not going to spare you from that. This 'rant' is nothing more than a troll crying because of his own actions-nice to see that people side with someone like that (note MASSIVE sarcasm).

Hostile Registered Member interactions

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
The registered users @***.com are bullies who only post to entertain themselves and occasionally toss in some important info, self-justifying for posting at all. Instead of clearing out unwanted posts, they would rather bait people into an argument so they can each take turns marking your post with negative likes [-1] at the same time pat each other on the butt with a [+1], all the while the thread fills up with useless garbage , mostly from them. I even seen Sir Bedevere lie about why they didnt remove a fake post when asked, saying it wasnt a TOS violation, when in fact it was pointed out the specifics of the violation. He just removed that post, leaving his to show with his reason its wasnt a violation. Then on top of that he removed a post of the guy who questioned him and that guy didn't violate any TOS. Slim is the main troublemaker, baiting people into posting by grilling them with questions to make them prove their reasoning of their post, then discredit anything they say, so his buddies have a reason to troll the thread. They challenge anyone who asks a question and gangs up on them. When they are shown they were wrong about something, they simply remove your post into a PPMA ("Pending Post Moderation Approval"), which is never approved. The site is littered with PPMA, along with registered members posts heckling suspected troll/Shills, many of which they baited. There are also posts of them making fun of how people spell, why they responded to an older post, etc. Its understandable any message board needs to ensure trolling and spamming are monitored, but they act suspicious of anyone posting who responds to a reply made by them to the Original Poster. If you even remotely sound like your against them or their motives, your post is removed by PPMA. The site isnt even creditable with many numbers, since they dont challenge short story responses. Many trolls/shills take advantage of this and post nonsense stories , where some are challenged, but not removed because the registered users would be able to leave their own heckling posts without looking foolish. So its sometimes difficult to even find if a number has good information about it.

They are good at using the TOS as a reason for deleting someones post, even though most of the posts removed never violated it. If they didn't like what you said, they just put it in moderation *** and nobody ever re-instates it once its there.

Look around the site to see the many ppma and you will find so many of them replying to posts that no longer exist. Ask yourself, why are theirs still visible if whomever they replied to isn't there anymore?

I agree 100% - why does a site where people share information need moderators? let alone moderators that bully those contributing information.

I find it interesting that none of the supporters of 800notes.com are able to answer any of the questions posed to them on this page or on any of the other pages where people have had a negative experience.

Instead the supporters of 800notes.com do nothing more that attack the person posting the questions or negative reviews.

I feel sorry for these people whose clearly are social outcasts in "real life" and only social interaction is via the internet.

I've been on the site and have seen the issues going on there-the ONLY reason for someone to rant about getting 'PPMA' is if the posts in question were so-there are a LOT of trolls on that site and many posts that do not belong. There is a difference between expressing your opinion and ranting because your troll posts got removed.

Doing exactly as the the reviewer has claimed, that they are 'grilled' with questions to prove themselves.

Unhealthy Moderators on 800notes

I have had the same experience on this website, and but will continue to add posts as needed as the information needs to be out there, despite what another user or moderator thinks. I detail all the unsolicited calls I receive under the user UnPrOtEcTeD VeTeRan, and yes I cut and paste a lot, but also receive countless calls to report. I would recommend most others just use it for reference because there definitely are trolls.

Guest

As soon as I reported a scam call and described my experience for others to see, a highly active moderator named BigA immediately trolled me and attempted to gaslight me. He tried to make it seem like I was the problem.

What a crummy site. Avoid.

WAY TO MUCH TROLLING ON THIS SITE!

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
You think initially its a good place to post scam phone calls you have received. That proves to not be true once the mods, owner and others on the board immediately begin trolling you as much as they can. They even create puppet accounts and gain access to information via collecting your email and password to then gain access to that email account. Sure, it could be someone else doing that. I suggest you go somewhere else to post phone numbers. Go to the FTC, FCC, iC3, and other places to report scam calls to.

Try contacting who I thought was the main moderator of the site. Nothing happened.

Then I poster on there, politely, to say that I thought the moderates were being unfair. It literally was like sharks attacking a piece of fresh meat in the water; that’s how bad it was....

Original review Apr 23, 2022
800notes.com used to be a decent website, with some information for people to research about those wonderful telemarketing calls. As we all know, telemarketing calls have increased exponentially over the past decade.

It seems there are several moderators on there who will flag anyone who posts stuff that they dont like or approve of. They delete the comments, or belittle the comment poster. In fact, some of their belittling can turn into straight up bullying. They can become quite rude.

It is so bad now that more than half of the comments get made fun of, or users get berated for simply posting info about a call they have received. This site is absolutely full of hate, vitriol, and garbage; it should be taken down.

1 year later, and this post is as dead-on accurate as it was back then. Please AVOID 800notes due to its poor management allowing a number of users to bully everyone else all day long, day after day.

It's only a matter of time until it happens to you. I had been using 800notes for many years. Along the way, I tried to "pay it back" and do my part by posting about spam calls I received. If I wasn't sure the number was being used by a bad actor, I wouldn't post.

Before posting, I always searched the phone number up on the web (usually to find it was actively reported on NoMoRobo and other sites and had been complained about within a matter of hours or days of calling me). Much of the time I actually called the # back to confirm it wasn't a person who had been spoofed. 99% of the time it was a disconnected number. (The other 1%, usually the same horrible computer-generated voice message that sounded like someone on helium asking you to 'please wait', indefinitely...).

And of course some of the numbers I reported had actually left a message on my machine and were clearly a scam (angry IRS agent demanding I call them for unpaid taxes or be thrown in jail, etc). I never looked back after putting up a report, why would I? I blocked each spam number and never had to look it up again. But recently I forgot to block one of the #'s I had reported, and found myself back on the800notes for the same # again.

And what did I find? A long-term troll on there calling itself MikeHuntleton had suspended my prior post ("Pending moderator approval") and put some copy and paste response about how the call could be from anyone, and unless I answered and spoke to whoever was calling and identified exactly who it was, I shouldn't be posting. And that I was the troll. I started going back through older spam #'s I had reported, and found that there was almost nothing left standing.

Everything, from a good ways back, had been flagged indefinitely as "pending approval". And then I started noticing that this MikeHuntleton account was similarly getting lots of other people's reports taken down as well, usually with the same sorts of comments. And he's been at it for years. It's like this account works for the call center industry and is purposely trying to frustrate and invalidate anyone who tries to report on disconnected numbers being used for telemarketing & scam calls.

Now when I look up a number and see nothing listed for it other than "Post pending moderator approval" I know to block it. MikeHuntleton and his nefarious troll army has already gotten there first and obliterated whatever comment might have been made. But I've given up on posting there. Why bother when there's a small active group of users whose only purpose is to spend their day looking for posts to attack.

It's their website. You're just fodder for them.

Original review Oct 19, 2016
I was reading around this site and found some disturbing reviews/comments from 800notes Users/Mods.
I came across this review:
freddys.pissedconsumer.com/freddys-pizza-review-from-denver-colorado-201610****6287.html
I remembered seeing the name "Freddy Fazbear's" at 800notes while searching numbers.
I commented to the review and went to 800notes to see the posts there again.
I found the correct info for that business and posted about it. In 17 mins, my post was deleted! I've read other reviews for 800notes here and it doesnt make sense why they are behaving like this. -Is any of the information from them real? -Why do they allow such mis-information to continue, even after its been pointed out to them? -Why do they remove the true information, once its shown to be true? Based on what i've read here and my own experience with them , i can believe they are deceptive. I took screenshots to as proof, as they seem to keep asking people to "prove it".

Guest

The Freddy Fazz Bear thing is a cooked up phony story from a dumb game. Those 800notes regulars are basement dwelling gamers.

They posted a 'troll vs 800troll ' fight on 800notes and here.

This is the kind of people running 800notes now, kiddo gamers who dont like to lose at anything, including something as simple as who owns a phone number or why someone called. So thats why you find troll battles all over 800notes and the scars of those battles are reflected by posts in 'post pending moderation approval' and the regulars replying to posts that no longer exist.

Repeating that same tired old story , doesn't make it true. What it does do is show everyone that YOU are the one obsessed with what people say and make up your own stories to discredit anything negative to 800notes.

Its what gives you a reason to troll here, provoking a response in the hope your buddies come to mark each others comment and then get mad because people voted negative for your comment, but positive for others.

You 800note tards love that voting thing a bit too much.

One more thought- around here we have been having scammers call with "free" cruises using legitimate phone numbers that belong to real people who have no idea that their numbers are being used as a caller id number. When I get a call from a number that seems legitimate I call it back with my number blocked and the folks I reached had no idea that scammers were using their number as a caller ID.

Read posts on 800 notes and you will discover that people have received calls from scammers using their own number as a caller id. So a legitimate business could have it's number being used by a telemarketer without their knowledge.

As a frequent visitor of 800notes, I find many of the reviews here very hilarious when they are complaining about posts being moderated. I see so many childish ones who post silly nonsense or speculations about who they "think" called, at the same time say there was no message and the number is out of service.

Making false posts is a violation of their TOS, so of course they might get flagged and removed. Some just keep returning to post the same thing over and over, then complain some more, not caring that they are spamming, which is also a TOS violation. Some of the people who are helpful there are targeted by these "troublemakers" and even threatened by some.

These complainers never tell you about all the helpful posts by the so-called "bullies" they call trolls. When they finally realize their disruptive posts won't remain, they go to review sites like this one and think someone will care.

PissedConsumer201**** #201**** wrote: "As a frequent visitor of 800notes, I find many of the reviews here very hilarious..." Reading this "PissedConsumer" reply, it sounds exactly like one of the 800notes trolls we all complain about, who has helped kill that site. Decide for yourself.

Look at the troll's own words to find your answer. Their example is that some of the people complaining about 800notes probably make the great sin of reporting a phone number *that has been disconnected* and whose ID has been used to call & hang up on them. Ask yourself.. What the heck are you trying to use 800notes for??

In what form does the spam we're all trying to guard against actually take in real life? No scam/fraud call or telemarketer calls you from a legit number! They always use a spoofed number. And most of the time that number is a disconnected number.

Who cares if someone speculates who they think the number may or may not be? If the number is disconnected and yet being used to call you, it's an unwanted call! Most users of a site like 800notes would LIKE to know someone else was called from a disconnected number that's now calling them. But some of these jerks living on 800notes are the self-righteous conformity police that are just looking to "moderate" (erase) comments and put up their own critiques of the user if you haven't posted a comment to their liking, including a complete conversation with whatever spammer has called you, including (somehow) robocalls.

There is no regard for what the true intent & interest should be for users of the site (avoiding spam calls, and positive id's for legit calls when possible as part of that). Again, judge for yourself why you would want to use the site, and if posts that identify disconnected #'s and scam-like calls should be the type that are constantly removed (and the authors "cancelled").

800notes dot com has become a playground for a registered users & cyberbullies.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

A number of miscreant registered users ( BigA aka BigAss, TygerKat aka PussyCat, TheRealseriously aka therealstupid, Slim aka ImreallyFat, Ismellascam aka Ismellbad, & Heinz57 aka IgotfiredfromHeinz, are the perpetrators and display behavior congruent with many of the diagnostic criteria for Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

Disrespect, anger, hostility, arrogance & aggression (cyber bullying) is the domain of those with low self-esteem and also tend to be more “shame-prone.” “Shame is what a bully attempts to hide. … They are anxious about the exposure of their failures or shortcomings. The bully gives away his shame by denigrating you and, as a result, a bully will make you experience shame about your own inadequacies.” In other words, the bully makes himself a winner at your expense, forcing you to become the shame-ridden loser. they use this behavior as a way to feel good about themselves.

Can't believe I tried to report a number and my experience when i was ganged up on and attacked by this bunch of moronic twits all for asking a few simple questions that none of them could answer.

BigA aka BigAss, TygerKat aka PussyCat, TheRealseriously aka therealstupid, Slim aka ImreallyFat, Ismellascam aka Ismellbad, & Heinz57 aka IgotfiredfromHeinz are nothing but a bunch of priggish Cyberbullies on a site that is there to inform the public. Yet they find pleasure in belittling, demoralizing , denigrating anyone that questions them.

800notes 800notes.com does not help to STOP or PREVENT the scammers....

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

When information about who called is unavailable this site provides some value of who may be calling.

However if you decide to contribute & post information, beware of the "registered users" /"regulars" that troll the site like a pack of school yard bullies looking for a fight.

Sadly these Users/Trolls attack any post they don't understand & often will make nasty disparaging comments about you & your post if they don't like it. These regulars and their comments provide no value.

Often time other Trolls/Registered Users will gang up on someone posting information like a bunch of Cyber-thugs as they cheer each other on.

Their comments never seek to understand & provide little to Zero Value. They also have the power to hide your comments if they don’t like them.

Sadly the site has not "Rules of Conduct" to address and deal with this behavior.

800 notes is a useless site. They have people (registered users)trolling the site that remove what content they don't like.

They also send derogatory comments to the poster after they remove them from their site.

Nothing more than trolls with no life.

Most people are smart enough to see its only a site for ranting about unwanted callers. Nobody goes there for an education , they just look to see who called and soon see its just a bunch of trolls and eventually leave...or stay to join in on the troll fest.

Having experienced the same thing for just trying to be helpful, i sympathize with you. The sad truth about their TOS is its just for disclaimer purposes and has no real meaning to them, so any Code of Conduct would not have been followed or enforced had it existed anyway.

Guest

The above post was made by someone who used the screen name "Norman" the other day. It has no reading comprehension so therefore couldn't figure out the TOS, even though it was pointed out to it several times, with links provided.

It came there with the express purpose of being a Troll, and has continued that behavior here as well.

The people it wants to degrade as "regulars" post those links and offer excellent advice on a variety of subjects such as debt collection, survey calls, telemarketing calls, and of course the IRS scams as well. Perhaps "Norman" should have taken the time to actually read posts by others instead of attacking and denigrating the people that are there to help?

I would invite this person who wrote the above post to point out these so called posts that it made over at 800notes, and along with it any "thank-you" posts it received for the help it alleges that it provided.

You 800notes trolls are so disrespectful towards anyone not following your mindset and call people "it" when talking about them.

Maybe you should point out those posts your talking about, thats if they still exist. Baiting people and calling them 'IT' isn't a behavior expected from a reputable site, such a terrible place to visit filled with mean people.

BigA! PA huh?

I've seen your comments about how many "thank you" posts received compared to every other poster trying to post a helpful post.

Normally it's after some paranoid rant degrading other posters. You're more of a PIA than a helpful poster!

800Notes.com Moderators & Registed users are using this forum to Shill & Troll

Many if not all of Positive reviews here for 800notes can be considered nothing more than Shilling. If you like a service, would you go out of your way to find a website where people are posting negative/bad experiences?

Not likely. The only reason anyone would do this is to attempt - to discredit their critics, cover up their bad behavior & self promote. - aka Shilling. A shill, also know as a plant or a stooge, is a person who publicly helps or gives credibility to a person or organization without disclosing that they have a close relationship with the person or organization.

A shill may also act to discredit opponents or critics of the person or organization in which they have a vested interest through character assassination or other means. Most shills attempt to give the impression of an enthusiastic customer independent of the company, web site or *** artist, for whom they are secretly working. The person or group in league with the shill relies on crowd psychology to encourage other onlookers or audience members to do business with the seller or accept the ideas they are promoting. It is clear that the stooges/shills/tolls from 800notes are here to shill and troll in a most unprofessional manner.

If you look deeper into many of the reviews you will see the self promotion, denials & projection of bad behavior & nasty name calling attempting to discredit the negative /bad experiences other have had. These moderators/registered users have nothing better to do than cause trouble by attacking people that comment here with "false" accusations without proof or facts. When they are asked to provide proof they are silent - no facts - no proof - just fiction. Look closely at all the reviews.

It's easy to see what these cyber-bullying, self centered twits are up to. The bullies from 800notes are stalking their victims here in an attempt to shut down those that have called them out! if you are here to support 800notes.com please provide proof and facts. Your false accusations, magical thinking, cyber bulling prove you are nothing more than social misfits.

If you want the complaints to stop, then stop the bad behavior. It's that simple!

The truth is besides the real reviews people post about that 800notes site, there are the 800notes trolls, ex-800notes troll(s), the PC Troll and normal people with an opinion of both all posting comments.

As for the person who keeps saying its all from one person, that troll is the only one who is actually posting the same junk over & over & over.

Guest

if looks like a pig, act's like a pigs, and can make baby pigs .... it it a pig!

Read the entire review - twice! Then read the comments here and other reviews about 800notes- all of them. If you read objectively with reason and logic it is crystal clear to see that 800notes supporters are coming to this forum to shill, troll, discredit, dismiss, deny and bully the reviewers that have had negative/bad experiences.

not one of the supporters of the site ever acknowledges the legitimacy of the bad reviews. That in an of it self is telling.

Guest

"If you like a service, would you go out of your way to find a website where people are posting negative/bad experiences? Not Likely."

That blanket answer of "Not Likely" is inaccurate and makes assumptions that do not apply.

For example, I found this site and this post as a direct result of 'Googling' "800Notes" just to get the URL for the website, after a search for a new, unknown caller's number did not turn up with a forum post at the "800Notes" website. I wasn't interested in trying to 'dig up dirt' on "800Notes" but because I had searched for that term on Google, i naturally received links to sites that were posting negative reviews about a site that I use on a regular bases in an attempt to identify callers that call but do not leave messages.

Since I have been using "800Notes.com" for several years for that purpose and have never had any issues, I was naturally curious to see why people were complaining about and what was being said. As I say, I have been using that site for several years for the purpose of identifying whether an unknown caller is (spammer, scammer, fraud attempt to steal ID/credit card information) and to share my experience/information about my calls from an unknown number.

So, the answer to the question of whether people will go out of their way to find negative information about a service they like is: They don't have to go out of their way, at all. Nor do they have to intentionally search for such negative information. All they have to do is enter an appropriate 'search word or phrase' and it all magically appears in the Google search results pages. I only searched for "800Notes" to get the webpage URL.

I got that link and right below it was the URL for the complaints filed here and another negative reporting site right below that.

The more correct question should probably have been: Would people be willing to going a site to read negative reviews about another website or service that they personally like?

If they have a curious nature, like me, the answer is a resounding, "Yes!" If not, they will probably ignore links to those negative reviews and simply go to their beloved site and do their business as usual. And since I've admitted that I use the "800Notes" site, I should also point out that I am not a registered user, nor am I a shill for them (especially since I am not being paid to be a shill).

If I a bad experience with a site or service, I have no difficulties with posting a negative review of it, if attempts to resolve my issue with the site, directly, fail. To date, I have not had any bad experiences at "800Notes" nor have any of my posts been deleted, to my knowledge. But I use it simply as a research resource for any unknown number that calls me; and I post my experience and any information I may have discovered about that caller to inform others. As for comments related to cyber bullying and similar abusive behaviors, it is a fact that being rude and hateful online has become the norm, rather than the exception.

It seems that the concept of being polite, respectful, and treating others as you would like to be treated is almost as much a fantasy as Santa Claus.

However, the same can be said for the correct use of grammar, spelling, and punctuation in internet/forum postings. :D

Your story doesn't make much sense, you said: (I have been using "800Notes.com" for several years), but you had to google a simple address you should know so well from years of use?

_

Your speech sounds more like the "damage control" style of post, a well known term used by 800notes 'staff'.

Perhaps you are what you say and haven't had any problems or posts deleted. But it doesn't mean the people who have had a bad experience were as knowledgeable about 'how things work' there, as you are.

_

Its trial & error on a message board site where people have no rules on which to base ethics of what they want to say. The diversity of people's belief's/ understanding of things vary greatly and people don't know what those cyberbullies are considering the 'proper' thing to say.

People just tend to say what they know and rational people will discuss disagreements in a civil manner, not badger people with the 3rd degree or make fun of them.

_ The TOS is not followed as the cyberbullies roaming there claim. Its merely an excuse they use and make false statements towards those who have a disagreement with anything on that site. There is no rationalizations with them, they have the power & the backing of the administration to do whatever THEY want, regardless if people understand or not.

_ So i'm not really sure what it is your attempting to convince people of.

Its a fact they do come here and 'shill' for the purpose of discrediting reviews, misleading visitors with phony conflicting stories and spreading confusion until the posts that matter are buried under a lot of nonsense post made by these shills. Anyone with common sense can come to the same conclusion by reading through these reviews.

Guest
reply icon Replying to comment of Guest-1256120

Good for you. You have never had a bad experience.

What logical conclusion are you attempting to make?

The key word you dispute is "likely -probably or apparently destined" is not a superlative ( all or nothing / black or white / 0 or 1 )it is based on probability of the probability something will happen. I just asked 15 people at random " if you are satisfied with a product or service how "likely" are you to go seek a site that is posting negative experiences and then post your own positive experience. All said they would not.

The only reason they offered to look up this type of information is if they were researching the product/service before they used it or after they had a bad experience. This does not mean they if I asked 100 people 100 would all agree it just means that most "Likely" people satisfied not. I asked if they did go upon having a positive or neutral experience would they then write about it and all said no. Maybe you are the exception or the outlier.

I would be interested in all the link to posts you have made on pissedconsumer.com about products/service you have had good experiences and have posted. I suspect none but maybe you will surprise us.

Again, the reason why people are here " 800notes.pissedconsumer is because they are pissed - Duh!

Your comments or your experience does not negate the experience of those that have had bad /negative experiences with the moderators from 800notes.

Your premise & logic is faulty.

I've never died as a result of a faulty product or as a direct result of another persons actions, but it does not mean that others have not died as a result. Not sure where you live or who you associate with, but being rude, disrespectful, mean is NOT the norm or the standard which should be tolerated.

It's not tolerated where I work & live and certainly not the norm. Allowing it to be the norm is part of the problem!

Guest
reply icon Replying to comment of Guest-1256120

to Scott: In another post you claim you use a call blocker - how do you know anything about a caller from a call blocker if you do not pick up to the phone?

You don't know who is calling, whether the call is legitimate or not, if it is a wrong number, or if the number has been spoofed.

Sharing info that a number id came up on your phone provides no value to anyone without concrete information & facts.

Again, people do look up services/product before they use them but it is unlikely - "low probability" that if they already use the product/service that they will seek out a negative review site to write their positive experience or even attempt at a rebuttal.

Clearly being dismissive of those with claims make you look like a stooge. You don't have to paid to be a stooge.

Guest

I agree 1000%. Just experienced the same cyber bulling as others have posted here.

Based on the reviews & comments I have seen here as well as my brief experience at 800notes, "getting slapped down & ganged up on" for asking a question it is clear that there are moderators from 800notes come here to do nothing but cause trouble in an attempt to justify or divert attention from their bad behavior.

What I find odd ( I'll never go back) is that 800notes promotes it self as an information source.

Yet the sites' moderators engage in picking fights with people (who bring information to 800notes) when they do not like or agree with the information being posted. They call people names, make rude comments and call the other moderators to gang up on to do the same (group bullying). They are easily frustrated and get angry quickly as they have no patience to seek understanding. Quick tempered, angry, easily frustrated are not good qualities for any support position.

If 800notes moderators behaved like Professionals the moderators would not interact with the users unless they are providing positive direction. They would also be responsible for validation of a persons claim & comment in a professional (non inflammatory/ non confrontational) manner. All posts should be left intact with a moderator commenting professionally with "facts" & not opinion" - trolling & shilling ( users and moderators) speaks for itself.

Sadly the moderators are unprofessional easily frustrated and quick to anger.

This behavior is typical of someone with either emotional/social problems &/or poorly educated.

Good news is that this site is becoming irrelevant with many of the new apps & sites ( www.truecaller.com, www.okcaller.com, https://thatsthem.com/phone, www.skipease.com/reverse-phone-number-lookup ) & others that provide real time crowd source information with NONE of the Drama & Psycho Interaction you may experience at 800notes.

I don't believe this website is a real phone directory as advertised. I know its free, but it should still be what it claims to be.

I went there with the belief i could find information to help me with who called me.

Instead i find its just a site that people post whatever they feel like and the Members say one thing, then do what they tell people their not doing. I can't say i find this to be a reliable site for information on calls, rather a place to vent peoples frustrations on unwanted calls.

I read that same thing, but I think its a troll they are talking to in that image the reviewer posted. I read that trolls like to challenge those Mods there and I guess its difficult to know if someone is argumentative, on if they are a troll causing trouble or not.

Guest

I did not take anything out of context as someone below suggested. Read what they said!

There are writings all over that site just like that and a person doesn't get to report what they expressed about their call unless these rogue regulars decide if your story stays or not.

Its not a phone directory for unknown calls, its a collection of selective stories of bad calls chosen by these rogue regulars.

Many of the reported calls just don't even make sense, so i cant understand what this is even supposed to be for.

Its certainly not about who called me, because after reading 6 pages of worthless stories, i still don't know who called me from a number.

Agreed! The only words that apply to the 800notes moderators are useless, worthless, and clueless.

Seldom offer real information but they sure do know their spelling and grammar lessons to offer up guidance.

I wish for all tele-scammers to stop calling me! State and federal Do Not Call Registries are also useless, worthless, and clueless!

I don't see how it could be taken out of context, look at what was said on that page you provided (thanks by the way) and you can clearly see the Ismellascam asked ["Exactly how do the regulars troll the threads and make uninformed statements? Do you have any facts to back your claim?"], then provided the "facts that back the claim" by insulting the poster with "tinfoil hat" references, something the regulars say as an insult to people who they make fun of.
