As an admin I’ve had more than one question from moderators around the flag workflow. Particularly when there’s an active flag and they get the agree/disagree/defer options.
The confusion comes from the thumbs-up / thumbs-down. Are they giving a thumbs-up to the post or the flag?
It would be helpful if there was an explanation shown on this UI. This is especially important when a mod’s decision will have ramifications for the user who posted.

They are taking an action on the flag.

Sorry, I should have explained - yes - it’s clear to me after some experimentation. But it’s not immediately clear to others when they see the UI unfortunately.

I was confused about the same thing when I first saw the options as well (and thought it was just me) I didn’t know others had been confused about it too

We are confused about the same thing
- As an interim, provide some guidance on what ‘Agree’ and ‘Disagree’ mean in the various moderation situations.
- Change the wording to things like ‘Spam’ and ‘Not spam’ that clearly state what a judgement is.
