What is the best way to report bad links you may discover on a Mahalo page?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

M$For lower belts, I recommend using the Discussion board on the page. That way the owner can be alerted, Or just use our Direct Question option, which is basically the Private Messaging system for the site.

I did try the message board after I made my last comment yesterday, and so far the link is unchanged. I'll give it a bit more time since it is the weekend and then use the Direct Question method if it isn't fixed, say by tomorrow. Thanks for your input.
If there is a notification to the page manager from notes posted to the message board, that would be preferable to the direct question.
I'm sure people have posted on my boards before and I was not notified, but many of the notification features do not seem to work for me. The only time I get email notifications is if someone adds me as a friends here on Mahalo.
I would use the direct message, not the message board. In my experience the managers are not notified when a post is made on their board, so unless they happen to check it manually, they will not know if something is posted there.
Hmm is that true, I was under the impression there was a notification, or at least there was suppose to be a notification, I'll try to find out.
I did mean a link that just doesn't work. The bad link that prompted this question looks like it never worked.
I hesitated to use the direct question because of the 'baggage' that is associated with it, like having to select a best answer to my non-question. But, if that is the way to do it, then that is the way I'll go.
I was hoping for something a little more discreet.
