    Actually we only investigate about ten percent of every reported case. There's just not enough people. I hope volunteer sign up is opened again soon.

      Wasn't volunteering supposed to start opening end of Feb? Now it's mid March and still nothing. Meh.

        Hi, let me respond officially as Abuse Chair. The person above writing under Abusemember is not accurate. We investigate EVERY case that comes before us. Sometimes the complaint is actually a Support or Legal case, and under those circumstances we will involve other committees. But I can tell you after three years on the committee no complaint is ever ignored. Not sure why "Abusemember" would say otherwise -- and I doubt that person is actually a member of the Abuse team. We are a small team, but I like to think we're pretty effective, and if (when!) meta is included in the Archive and new and different issues arise, we will deal with them or grow as needed. As for new volunteers, I recommend you drop a note to the Volunteer Committee at the OTW to ask about the status and the process.
