Reporter Statistics

[LFC_Bitcoin]

For context, 47k reports works out to a little more than 1 report per hour, every hour for 5 years. That’s a lot.

Probably a major autist, more than 1 report per hour over 5 years is insane.

Your statistics are always incredibly impressive Lafu. Knocks me off my feet every time.
I have 178 „unhandled" which won't get less but as long as the "good" reports rise everything is fine

Thanks mate toked me over 2 years now but i am not sick to keep going and reporting .
Unhandled reports can be get less sometimes when they have time or know how to deal with it , but i wouldnt care much on it and also on the Bad Reposts.
Keep reporting as far you have the time for , or better now as you are Mod keep cleaning the Local Board

I don't know if it's real or manipulated  but i got this on a PM from one user :

I believe there's users with even higher statistics than this. It would be interesting to see the latest reporting statistics from theymos, but considering the demand for additional moderators right now isn't needed I don't think we will see this any time soon.

They might not necessarily be needed per se right now but I think the people with those sorts of insane report stats would be beneficial to have on staff and have earned a shot at being a mod (assuming there's no other shenanigans that they're involved in). I really hope theymos implements some sort of rewards for reporters at some point as a small token of thanks for reporting as it as a thankless task and back in the day at least there was a decent chance of you becoming a mod with a lot of reporting. Heck, I think I was made a mod on less than 3k reports and that was considered a lot back then, but it's peanuts now. I have also noticed a drop off in reports recently. and I wonder if people got tired of reporting? Regardless, I'd still like to see the updated report stats.

Every report counts, I guess. I don’t report all that much to be honest but every person who does report, even if it’s not that often, it cleans up the forum & makes it a better place.

Rumor has it that some may be busy with other stuff ATM. And with the bumping changes on some boards (which I'd like to believe were at least in part influenced by the flood of reports) the reasons to scour for reportable posts may be fewer and not as acute anymore.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

I must admit the lack of progress in the reporter badges has lessened my desire to report more frequently.
I know I shouldn’t be like that but hey, at least I’m honest.

The number of posts per week dropped more than 80% in the last 16 months, from 350k per week to 60k per week. I'd say there's simply less spam to report

Code:

You have reported 73 posts with 78% accuracy (55 good, 16 bad, 2 unhandled). Do not worry about your accuracy too much; one accurate report is worth many inaccurate reports.

Just trying to do my bit I try target the account sellers and bank sellers and fraud services no one likes them and there not welcome quite surprised some of the account sellers ended up in the "bad" category.

In general, you should only report posts that violate the forum rules. Posts won't get deleted because people don't like them, scams aren't moderated, and account sales are allowed.
It's a different story if it's an account that requires KYC: those are assumed to be hacked, and thus not allowed to be advertised.

[MagicByt3]

Most of them have been things like Revolut and banking accounts which are KYC compliant or betting accounts which are also partial KYC for withdraw so they should not be allowed.

I think the forum should look to ban account selling it's not useful to anyone other than scammers who want to act like they have been active community members. 

While I know scam's are not actively deleted if people were unable to buy accounts with history it would be hard for these scams to even gain traction with noob accounts.

Something the forum should think about.

This has been discussed before: banning account sales on Bitcointalk won't stop account sales. It'll only move to other places on the internet.

That only amplifies how many posts he would need to report per hour since he registered to get that number. (around 2.6/hour over 2 years)

There is a good chance he was using some kind of automation to report posts that meet some criteria. If this is the case, and all these reports really are "good" (and not just being marked as good by the moderators), the administration might as well implement the automation on their own.

Some of the people who have insane reporting numbers are also the most divisive forum members, and troll or try to troll certain forum members into either leaving or rage quitting. It would probably not be a good look for these people to be wearing a moderator hat.

Yeah, I hope they're just on the back-burner and haven't been abandoned completely. I think it would be a good encouragement for people to keep reporting.

Well there seemed to be a drastic drop merely in the last few months. I'm talking like going from 1k+ reports in the queue to around a mere 100 or so.  It wasn't that long ago when we were seeing 2k+ as well.

I don't think reporting a lot should automatically qualify you as that would obviously lead to abuse, but I did also say:
