is "No information Legal"

No, its the default description when the player has not entered any information.

Call the TD

No, there is no TD. Well, the table host has the rights to boot players, accept new ones and change the table options, but since the table host is usually a player there is no neutral TD to call.

If opps have no agreement they should say so.

"No agreement" is often the case in the main bridge club. If the opponents have no agreement, they are under no obligation to tell you what they intend the bid to mean (indeed, some people would argue that people should not offer the meaning of a bid when there is no agreement). At some tables, the 2H bidder could have stated to the table that 2H was strong so that opponents and partner alike would know. Some people think that's a travesty.

It is important to remember that this is a just a single result in the main bridge club of BBO. In other words: it means nothing. Just move on and try to enjoy the next hand seems to be the best approach.

tim g has summed it up understand now ty all for input regards

but in passing-where the alert box is on the screen one can type in "strong"
then only the opps are made aware-the partner does not see that statement,that also applies to other specialised bids-cue etc etc
