When you file an abuse report using the built in abuse report function, your avatar is made to engage in a snapshot taking animation and to emit a snapshot taking sound.
This signals those you are filing the abuse report against that you are filing abuse reports, which often serves as a signal to begin various types of retalitory actions.
This poll asks your opinion as to whether the use of the disinctive sound and animation triggered when filing an abuse report should be eliminated so as to be able to file an abuse report without announcing the fact to those around.
The sound and gesture used for normal screenshots would remain the same as always.

Sometimes I get asked what I'm doing, and I just say "Taking a snapshot..."  |

The wording on the poll is vague: 'Should the "Snapshot/Abuse Report" sound and animation be eliminated?'
A better way to word it might be: 'Should the Snapshot gesture NOT be played when filing an abuse report?' That way, there is no possible misinterpretation re: the gesture that is played during a snaphsot, regardless of whether it's a normal snapshot or an AR snapshot.
Anyway, I dislike the anonymity of abuse reports, so I voted no regardless.

I included the word "snapshot" in the hopes of helping people understand what sound and gesture I meant. I didn't think people would recognize what "abuse report sound and gesture " referred to.
The snapshot sound and animation used for non abuse report related screen captures are not the concern of the poll.
The intent of the poll is to see if there would be support for eliminating the use of the snapshot sound and gesture when filing an abuse report.
