I am currently being targeted by many users on one of my discussions and I really don't have the time for it. I would like to report them and I don't know how to. I do not want people going to my account to find the post I made and joining it, I would just like an answer to this question only.

I assume you are referring to this thread: Windows 10.1 BootCamp Network Virus Moved to Mac.
If you "don't have time for it" just stop responding.
I'd like to give you and other level 1s who cannot report some advice in dealing with similar situations in the future. Try to ignore people who aren't helpful or are trying to get a rise out of you, or just quickly and politely mention that they're not being helpful. Don't respond after that point unless they are helpful later in the thread. There isn't much else you can do for another 150 points.
Take, for example, your threads. If you look at the thread where this all started, I see a level 7 trying to poke fun at you and your situation. The other users who can report are busy not reporting or not answering. In this thread I see a level 6, a level 7, and a level 9 all trying to get a rise out of you. That's three out of the six users in this thread who have reporting abilities, only one has openly mentioned trying to help you or take care of the situation. All posts, as of right now, are still up and publicly available.
One other thing to think about: Users that are Level 6 and above have their own place to post and talk amongst themselves. (Levels and Perks ) If there's a group of them piling on here, out in the open in the public forums, who's to say what may be going on there, and it'll take you 8,000 points to figure it out.
Again, ignore people who are trying to rile you up. Until you hit level 2, there isn't anything else you can do.
I stated specifically that I want an answer to this question. You may not be referring to an answer for the other post, but you have not answered my question. My question isn't: How do I get people to stop commenting on my posts. It was: How do I report apple support users.

Hello JAnime_Gamer,
All you can do is post a question in this forum. The Apple moderators check it on a regular basis for people like you that need assistance but can't yet report posts.
In the interim, if you don't want someone to continue posting in your thread, politely ask them to stop replying. If they don't, then you would have cause to report them. At this point, you have no cause to complain.
You cannot report anyone until you've earned enough points to reach a higher level.
And, you do not have a "private" account here; these are online open forums and, as long as someone is signed in with their Apple ID, they have access to all the forums and can click on someone's name which will show them all the posts they have made. Just like I clicked on your name:
You are not being targeted by anyone. People have tried to help you.
You cannot stop people from reading your posts. If you do not want people to read your posts, then you will need to stop participating here.
I do not think it is in your right to tell me when or when not I have a cause to express a certain emotion, and I do remember once deleting a post because it was in my way and typed wrong, so I believe there is a way, but I simply don't remember.
The thing is, there are people here who are helping me, and then there are people like you, who are just saying I'm wrong and I'm just complaining with no valid reason. In reality, if you were trying to be helpful, you would probably just say: No, sorry, there isn't a way to do that.
You don't have to make a claim and then make
You do realize that this is a public forum, so I can read this. And it doesn't matter if people consider if I have an attitude or not, that never gives anybody a right to them target them. Because you directly stated that after I "developed my attitude", people were then targeting me, but, that doesn't give them a right. For example, If a kid was being verbally bullied, does that give the kid the right to then verbally abuse the bully? No, it does not.
Hello again JAnime_Gamer,
You have asked multiple questions, so that is why you are getting multiple answers.
Since you are not a Level 2, you cannot report posts on your own. You must post a message here and wait for an Apple moderator to notice.
Regardless of level, no one has the ability to delete any posts made by themselves or by anyone else. Only the Apple moderators have that ability. Even then, I don't think they ever delete anything. I think they just move posts to a non-public forum. In any event, you would have to specifically request this.
I will go ahead and report your post here and get the attention of the Apple moderators. I can't guarantee they will respond or that they will take any action.
As etresoft told you, you have to be a Level 2 or higher (150+ points) to report a post. In addition you can edit a post you made within a 15 minute time frame of posting. After that you are no longer able to edit the post.
TheOnlyCyberWizard :
Your deductive powers are amazing. What you have deduced in paragraph three is correct. Even in the lounge, the TOS applies. The host do not lets us cross the line. They do let it bend a little more.

This is very time consuming. I am getting multiple answers, some people saying you cannot do it, some saying you have to be a higher level, and some saying that only hosts can do that.
At level 1 you can not report posts.
If you could report posts I would have advised you how.
It is a wonder that people were trying to help you in the thread I referred to.
I am partially annoyed by the response, but thank you for giving me a thorough answer, but I have one question then: Is there a way to delete posts you have made?
