Have you thought about adding some sort of privileges that come along with it? Nothing too amazing, but how about something like a bigger personal text or the ability to have a clickable link there? I've always thought that would be useful. Maybe a custom title? Editable or not. I think with having some sort of added benefits it would help the forum by encouraging users to report and everyone benefits.
To add to this suggestion, I think being given some sort of title after receiving x amount of merit would be nice. I was thinking something like Meritous, but that doesn't seem to be a word haha, but 'Meritorious' is which sounds even better: meritorious adjective mer·i·to·ri·ous \ ˌmer-ə-ˈtȯr-ē-əs \
deserving of honor or esteem
honored for her meritorious service to the company Contributor could also be another one, or maybe the entry level choice for a smaller amount of merit received (though still and impressive amount). I think those sorts of titles would show who actually contributes something worthwhile here and would be something everybody could strive for. Can we also get a PM sent, notifying you submitted a report with a link to the post.
The second suggestion could be useful to the members before they hit 300 reports in identifying which posts they've reported.
Sometimes I go on a reporting spree and do ~30 reports in the Altcoin/Off-topic board. Meanwhile, Welsh has almost 30k reports (which means that he would have received 30k PM in his box). Sorry, but this isn't a good idea. Hitting 300 good reports isn't that hard. Agreed. Don't see why this would be needed. If it was implemented though people should be able to toggle the notifications on/off. Is this guy just did a Plagiarism? why not start the process?
That what I thought initially when I saw it, but I think he might have just messed the quote up. Check his other posts for any other examples as if he's a copy and paster there will likely be more.

Possible, but not many users are willing to do it. I guess with the incentive of badges it will increase the likelihood of users that didn't report before to start too, but that's only a good thing in my opinion. More badges can be added for higher amounts once we start seeing more people earn the current badges though.

I have to admit it's a boring and robotic job LOL I guess with the incentive of badges it will increase the likelihood of users that didn't report before to start too, but that's only a good thing in my opinion. The badges will work like tonic IMO. Members will see the badges on other profiles or under their usernames and they will get curious to know about it. Out of curiosity they will start reporting and who knows from them we may find someone who will wear the toppest badge. Imagine every single member has reported at least 10 posts - meaning 428,364 * 10 = 4,283,640 ( over 4 and a quarter millions) reports! Welsh and other mod gang... get ready for the biggest flood of the history ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Could we have a set of badges to select from? I want to have the ability to pick my own badge, maybe we could grant this special access to several badges to select from to people with more than 1000 reports? For example, I want the eraser badge.

Yes, of course! It is possible to send 300 reports in 1 day! Then we need to increase the number to get the badge. How about 30k report as the first milestone for the badge?

I think 300 is enough, it's possible for those people who has the knowledge on what posts to report. But if you're not quite good on reporting some shitposts then maybe it'll give you many bad reports. It's just an additional badge or maybe an additional challenge for us to diminish all the shitposters in the forum. For me, the green trust is the greatest reward to achieve by each of us.

Being able to choose your own would just be unnecessary confusing if everyone had a different badge for the exact same thing and that's why they should be uniform as the badge means something and should be easily identifiable. I think people should be able to disable them if they don't like them or wish to be displayed though. Sorry, but this isn't a good idea. Hitting 300 good reports isn't that hard.
Yes, of course! It is possible to send 300 reports in 1 day! Then we need to increase the number to get the badge. How about 30k report as the first milestone for the badge? It would be very difficult and incredibly time-consuming to do 300 in one day. If people start spamming the report queue very quickly just to hit their targets then the minimum should should be made higher. Maybe 300 is too low to start with in the first place. 30k is too high though. 500 or 100 would be a good start I think as I'm sure once badges are awarded people will step up their report game.

It would be very difficult and incredibly time-consuming to do 300 in one day. I can probably do it within an hour in almost any altcoin thread, but it feels so useless. For reporting homograph spambots (to get the user accounts banned, not just the post deleted), I can report about 40 in 15 minutes. Seeing them all nuked is very satisfying! If people start spamming the report queue very quickly just to hit their targets then the minimum should should be made higher. Maybe 300 is too low to start with in the first place. Shouldn't it be considered a good thing if people start reporting more bad posts? Since only 195 users qualify at the moment, I don't think it should be higher.

Shouldn't it be considered a good thing if people start reporting more bad posts? Since only 195 users qualify at the moment, I don't think it should be higher. Not really. There's a couple of users who have just started frantically spamming the report queue recently with hundreds of reports a day probably because theymos announced the possibility of merit badges. It's clear some of them are actually just looking for things to report because they're reporting old threads that haven't been posted in for ages just to be 'locked' or spam posts from ages ago. Just saw one report from January on a spam post. Is that really essential? Nobody will see or miss that post whether it's there or not. Do I really need to waste my time deleting hundreds of posts long buried in a bounty thread? All it does is swamp the queue with things that are either going to take a long time to handle or not get handled at all and increases the chances of us missing something important that needs handling urgently. There probably should be two report buttons or two queues or something. One for urgent things and the other one for sig spam or whatever. Maybe there could be dedicated mods/patrollers that handle the sig spam etc. There's thousands of spammers and bots making thousands of posts so it's never-ending.

probably because theymos announced the possibility of merit badges I started reporting a lot more when I read some report stats last year. There were no badges yet to be earned, so I can imagine this thread made more people aware of the possibility. It's clear some of them are actually just looking for things to report I'm kinda guilty of that too (when I go after accounts to be nuked), and I report many of them. But they're recent and active accounts. When I stumble upon old bad posts, I sometimes report them too, but those are exceptions. because they're reporting old threads that haven't been posted in for ages just to be 'locked' or spam posts from ages ago. Just saw one report from January on a spam post. Is that really essential? Like this one? That's a waste of time indeed. BTW If my reporting manners are not good enough, please let me know so we both don't waste time and effort. Same for me! There's barely any feedback on reports, sometimes I get a "thanks!", but that's it. Without any message, I assume I'm doing the forum a favour.

I don't think you can ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) The time between two reports for me is 9 seconds. So for 300 reports you will need 2700 secs meaning 45 pure minutes. Add up the seconds that needs to move from one page to another. Say 2 seconds each that's 600 more secs which is more 10 minutes. This is only in theory though. You really think practically you can? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) PS: Consider the frustration of doing same thing for total of 55 minutes without a break ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Most of the time I report posts written in other languages outside the Local section and the Homographs. BTW If my reporting manners are not good enough, please let me know so we both don't waste time and effort. I'm aiming for a ban/nuke kind of reports and homographs but.. it's not easy.

I checked - it's real. I've sent over 800 good reports in 24 hours with 100% accuracy! Yes, a good start will be 500-1000 report!
