Thank you for that response and I will benefit from the additional information I do however believe the entire reporting process is better served if this unintentional obstruction is corrected Regardless of whether or not a report would have been more appropriately filed somewhere else the misplaced report having been filed in good faith deserves to receive the attention on an admin Honestly I would expect an admin to rather zealously ensure that they weren t taken out of the loop by the flaw of an automated process I believe the timestamp should be compared and if the report is after the block in place the report should stay Manually remove if without action or when the block is modified the Bot would remove it then Unless it was a technical challenge beyond what I can fathom I see little reason not to And I know a couple tool admins who love to hate fixing code So I stand upon the initial belief that this is a problematic condition I am curious if there is something I am missing entirely Thanks again Strat
