Title: We need more transparence Post by: ArsenShnurkov on December 12, 2012, 02:02:20 PM There is the function "Report to moderator". We need to make it more transparent. User should be able to:
1) view his reports 2) view the response of moderators 3) be able to refer to this problem in discussion (make link to the report and moderator's responses) Also the profile of user should be extended. Moderator decisions on user activity should be tracked in user profile and visible to all, For example "user used offensive language in topik NNN1", "user violates rule KKK of subform in topic NNN2".

Title: Re: We need more transparence Post by: Lethn on December 12, 2012, 02:24:04 PM I think the only thing moderators should be doing is stopping spam bots and virus posters, usually if you pay attention to common sense that's all you need if you get a block function.
Title: Re: We need more transparence Post by: ArsenShnurkov on December 12, 2012, 02:33:59 PM if you pay attention to common sense What should be done to users who ignore forum rules? (for example, deliberately refuses to post topics in appropriate subforums ?) Title: Re: We need more transparence Post by: theymos on December 12, 2012, 05:05:32 PM I'd like users to receive PMs whenever a moderator deletes one of their posts, but I haven't gotten around to figuring out how to do this. I'd also like users to be able to see whether their reports were acted on or not, but this is even more difficult and probably won't ever be done with SMF.
Moderator actions should be anonymous. Moderators get hassled enough already. If you have a problem with a moderator, PM me.

User should be able to: 1) view his reports 2) view the response of moderators 3) be able to refer to this problem in discussion (make link to the report and moderator's responses) Reports could probably use some work, I don't know if I would actually use something like that for long though, checking reports is already a bit of a chore. Maybe a checkbox with approved/denied and a text box to add a short entry. It would have to be integrated into the report system somehow to make it as painless as possible. Quote Also the profile of user should be extended. Moderator decisions on user activity should be tracked in user profile and visible to all, For example "user used offensive language in topik NNN1", "user violates rule KKK of subform in topic NNN2". Kinda seems like a violation of privacy, I don't think that's anyone else's business. Main things I can see coming out of that would be more backseat moderating, more "just look at your history you're obviously a troll" type posts, and more drama in general. It could be useful for mods/staff only though, to see repeat offenders. Title: Re: We need more transparence Post by: Dalkore on December 12, 2012, 06:59:54 PM That's pretty statist, yo. Can you elaborate on this more? This is a forum btw, is The State of Bitcoin Talk run by King Theymos and his administration if you haven't noticed.

(for example, deliberately refuses to post topics in appropriate subforums ?) Moderators can just move them? It's hardly a big problem that, especially considering the amount of spambots you can get if you aren't constantly on guard >_< Title: Re: We need more transparence Post by: Stephen Gornick on December 12, 2012, 09:21:40 PM ModLog provides some transparency here:
