Title: Question regarding reporting users
Post by: Ligrev on September 28, 2017, 09:01:50 AM
Yesterday I reported a User for spreading his reflink in a way that Users could easily be tricked into using it, so I reported him.
I saw that there was some kind of statistic wether you are/were right or wrong on this.
Does this in any way impact any of my profile statistics? Do I get punished for being wrong or rewarded for being right?
Sorry if this has already been answered!

Greetings!  :)

I think it's extremely helpful to the moderators, but that's about it. If you read here:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2166379.0

You'll note they mention that, '...in general there's no need to worry about accuracy too much.'

So I would assume as long as you're not abusing the tool and reporting someone you don't like just for the hell of it, you should be fine.

Hope that helps.
