Title: What happens if two or more persons report a post
Post by: Pffrt on July 09, 2020, 02:05:13 PM
May not be so important topic for others but I'm dying to know what happen to the report status if two or more person report a same post. For example, imagine someone has reported a SPAM POST and I also reported the same SPAM POST. Now what will the be status of my report since someone else have reported that post before me? Imagine the SPAM POST has been deleted. Now will my report be counted as-
Good
Or, Bad
Or, Unhandled
I can't remember if I have seen the correct answer ever. I tried to get a related thread but didn't find the exact answer.
So far, I have 99% accuracy with 1 bad and 5 unhandled reports.

If the mods agrees, both reports will be marked as good. If not, both will be marked bad.

^ Usually.

Are you sure about this? Any valid source of your claim? Please provide if you have. I have some unhandled reports, where they are getting from in that case? I can't remember to report posts which doesn't deserve to be deleted.

AFAIK If two/three/ten people report a post then they all get credited for a good report if the post/thread has been deleted. If multiple people have reported a post they come up as separate in the report queue. However, if a moderator deletes the post all the users are credited with a good report. If the post is moved, then not all reports are credited with a good report, and quite often if someone hasn't specified something along the lines of "Wrong section, doesn't belong in <section>" then a moderator may think you are reporting it for being in the current section it's been moved too and thus mark it as a bad report.

They will both be marked as good. If one post is deleted all the reports against it will be handled as well.
