It means that you wrote something inappropriate that requires moderator attention. You lose 10 reputation points each time you are flagged.

What if you are flagged unfairly or maliciously? - elcielo, DIC 15, 2009

Good question. Someone just flagged one of my posts. So what happens next?

If a moderator views it and decides the post is okay, they will remove the flag. Unfortunately they cannot return the points that were lost. If the same person continues malicious flagging without a reason, they will probably be banned. - aloshek, DIC 15, 2009
