Share, +1, and comment if you vote yes to an ability to report harassment.
Women, are you tired of reading weird harassing comments on your posts? Think that the internet is a jerk factory, where if you block one another pops up? Do you wish that the community discouraged harassment? Then you need a harassment reporting tool (not available on all networks).
Men, are you sick of losing women to Pinterest and Facebook? Wish they had a safe place to post publicly? Then you need a harassment reporting tool (not available on Google Plus).
Anyone, do you wish that you could do something more than blocking when a bully or a creep posts something that promotes discrimination, bigotry, racism, hatred, or harassment toward you or others? Then you need a harassment reporting tool (if you want one on your social network you are going to have to fight for it!).
Please, if you want Google Plus to make it possible to report harassment, #voteithot by sharing, +1'ing, and commenting. With enough support, we can make harassment a reportable offense.

Thanks +Max Huijgen and +Michael Beckett. These complicated mechanisms to report issues are way more than I was aware of. Maybe that's why my previous appeals have not resulted in any change! The only time something I suggested actually got a change was when I sent it through send feedback. I did that here, but I think your help with all of these tags is going to make a big difference.Mar 24, 2012
Hey +Christa laser I agree totally and thanks for even thinking of us hat have been harrassed one way or another be it woman or man I agree and will support anything you do!!Apr 1, 2012
+Christa Laser So your intent is indeed to control others on G+, as you already had tools to mute/block others.May 2, 2012
Totally agree, I think this is required to deal with a glaring problem in regards to inequality on google plus, and what possible advantage is there to Google to not do this and thus protect and retain serial stalkers?
Google's policys have seem to follow US law in this regard, but they're a priviate company, and they CAN do better.Jun 29, 2012
When I was reporting paedophiles on here, it took at LEAST a few days for actual persons to look into the reports. They don;t have the manpower. And that was months ago, well before we had the numbers we do now.
Bullying and harrassment are subjective; I've seen people complain about being bullied b/c someone did not like their opinion. I see people claiming to be stalked b/c someone is plusfecking their posts.
While I am displeased with the trolls here who hound a person and try to make their lives miserable, I do not see this as a workable option for the first two reasons stated: not enough manpower; too subjective.
The harrassers do eventually tire and go away.Jun 29, 2012
