As a mod? We handle things the same way, though of course, the exact course of action may depend on the mod. In the case of migrations - I personally ask a few questions. Firstly, is it on topic here …

Reading through all the comments, and the edit history it makes sense - basically the question rendered with what OP assumed to be B+W wingdingish charecters as emoji. See the rest of the comments, an …

I didn't handle the flag so, I think I can handle this with some fresh eyes. I'd start by saying the wording on the original question could be interpreted both ways. I read it as he wants to set a s …
