I've seen several profiles with porn pics but I can't report them, because that option disappeared! It's really boring to report each pic. There are many men (gays or sick ones) that steal pics from girls' profiles and make a new one with those pics.

Why can't we report those sick people?!!!

Report Abuse from profiles is no longer an option. Report Abuse from individual pics (in albums) is still an option. If you want to report a bunch of them you have to go thru the Help section (found on every page in hi5) .. make sure to include the url for each picture.

so, Hi5 is now an international butchery...
there are too many kids exposed to rapers and sick people, blocking their profiles was a way to let them know that it is dangerous to show too much on line.
Hi5 operators may enjoy watching those pics too, that's way they're allowed now.

What the hell are you talking about "Hi5 is now an international butchery" .. "Hi5 operators may enjoy watching those pics too, that's way they're allowed now"

You can still report them .. just go thru the help section

OR send an email to help@hi5.com & include the url(s) for the offending pic(s).

Or send them to me & I'll report their sorry @$$

What is the report abuse useful for? My wife's sister has reported that the owner of a profile has stole her picture and posted in his photo album, and in the picture he wrote that she is his wife which is not true 'cause she's already married. She already click on the Report Abuse link more than once, she already sent an email to help@hi5.com almost a month ago and so far she hasn't received a reply nor anything has been done about the situation. For what i've realized she's not the only one complaining about the "report abuse" situation. What else does she have to do to solve this?

@Peejay:

Copied photos is a big problem with any site that allows photo uploads, and is often difficult to prove who "owns" the photo. Please see this FAQ for instructions on how to report copied photos or a fake profile. We'll need supporting information to prove the photos were copied.

I hope this information is helpful.

As hi5 is already resizing and perhaps reformatting photos, it could also add an invisible watermark or encrypted code string to the photos telling where and when the photo came into hi5. A stolen photo would then have multiple codes.

With a cleverly chosen marking method the marking could survive even filtering and some other image manipulations.

Hi5 could also register every posted photo in its database by a thumbnail and a timestamp to verify photo stealing.
