## Answers

### Answer by Hitesh Vohra

- When you **report another member's post, they won't know** who reported it, and the information or conversation you reported should no longer appear in your feed or messaging inbox. If the content or interaction is in violation of our Terms of Service, we may review it and take additional measures, such as warning or suspending the author.
- Go to the [profile](https://www.mindstick.com/articles/44686/how-to-write-a-profile-essay) you want to report and click on it.
- Click the More icon and select **Report/Block.**
- From the What do you wish to do? menu, choose the relevant action. Open the pop-up window and follow the directions on the screen.
- To report the update, click Submit, or go back to evaluate your options, click Back.
