Is Possible to withdraw report to moderator?

[Sarah Azhari]

I know there isn't button to do that, but is possible in the future the forum have that feature?
Because I've mistakenly reported my post to a moderator by accident.

So far, I reported 3 posts with 100% accuracy, 1 of the 3 reported is my post.  I don't know how that 100% comes, because my post i did report some time ago, maybe still be unhandled or hasn't been seen by a moderator. (It might also a bug percent calculation)

[UserU]

So far I haven't heard of such an instance, but the best they could do is to leave it unhandled. Once a report comes in, it has to be handled either way but if it's a complicated case or too trivial which can't be determined as good or bad, it remains unhandled which doesn't affect your accuracy.

By the way, no need to fret about it too much. As long as you are not abusing the button, it's fine.

[Plaguedeath]

Nope, it's not possible.

When you already hit 300 good posts reported, you can only view and track your past 30 days reports to see the status is unhandled, good, or bad.

I see no problem if the forum will want to implement to withdraw reported post, but if you mistakenly reported your post e.g. duplicate or high quality post, the moderators will not likely to proceed your report and maybe it will stay in unhandled.

I doubt that is possible on the SMF software and it's not a common situation for one to mistakenly send a report. You need to click two buttons to send a report, one after you click "report to moderator" and another when you click "submit" after writing a comment or not.
It's unlikely that many users would find themselves there and such an option would be seldom used.

You can see if you have an unhandled, good or bad reports when you try to submit a new one.
It's possible your reports are aggregated to give 100% accuracy.

It is not possible for now. Maybe theymos will include that in the forum software that members are hoping for, but as for now it can not be done.

It is because one of the posts remain not handled is the reason.


There are some corrections needed about post reporting, another is when you mistakenly report a post two times, one would be marked as bad, instead for a moderator to just remove it from the list of posts the person reports.

[LoyceV]

When I realize I made a mistake reporting a post, I just report it again saying "sorry" and explaining it. Sometimes they end up as "Bad", sometimes as "Good".
I used to dislike "Bad" reports, but I changed my interpretation: it just means I'm not only reporting the obvious spam, but also border cases that may or may not deserve Mod action. So I'll let the Mod decide, and use the rare "Bad" report for future reporting. It helps to know how Mods handle certain border cases.
In most cases, "border cases" stay unhandled. Mods don't want to delete it, but also don't want to mark it as Bad. Fine by me

If you're worried that it will be an accurate report, just make another report with the reasons for withdrawing the previous report. I don't know if the results will be effective, at least this is what only you can do.

Even if you report your own post and it is marked as good, it will count towards accuracy.

First time I read something like this, how did you manage to do it? On the other hand, maybe your post was really so bad it was worth reporting Anyway, I wouldn't worry too much about it, because the mods may have realized that it was a mistake and the report will simply remain unhandled.

[Sarah Azhari]

Because when I look how easy to create a user script like this, then i would be easy also to add withdraw button;

var reportLink = "<a href=" + postLink.prop("href").replace("index.php?", "index.php?action=reporttm;").replace(".msg", ";msg=") + ">Withdraw report to moderator</a>";

You can see if you have an unhandled, good or bad reports when you try to submit a new one.

about 100% accuracy, I don't know why is not right and accurate, as my basic math knowledge, 100% is perfect without any bad and unhandle (9 bad and 50 unhandle) like this,

100% is 0 bad and 0 unhandled, right?, or it's a forum bug?

i accidentally opened 2 browsers, Maybe because I'm fasting so don't really pay attention which one is right.

It's not a bug, it's to encourage you: 99.11% gets rounded up to 100%.

[KingsDen]

The reason there shouldn't be withdrawal of report provision.

Let us assume I reported a particular user's posts and say about it and the user meets me in dm and convinced me about the reported post. What next will I do, maybe I will withdraw the report since it hasn't been handled.
This time I am now the judge, which is not supposed to be so.
So it is cool you leave it for the moderators, if the reasons to withdraw it is that it wasn't a bad post, the moderators would be able to decipher it and mark it as a bad report.

Report and Report Cancel are not on-chain  

So do you imagine what will happen if you report it, a moderator received it and is handling it but then you cancel that report. I will cause a conflict on the system and to resolve or prevent such conflict, it needs more time to code.

It is not like set or cancel your trading orders, no profit no loss at all so I think we can take report less seriously about its stats (Good, Bad, Unhandled).

And even if you cancel your report, a moderator who takes it will still be able to handle it on their own perspective. Moderators don't actually need to receive reports to handle posts in Bitcoin Talk. When they are informed about a post, a topic, it's their right to handle such.

I don't think there's a function for doing that, ones sent it will be received from the other end, same also applies to sending PMs, but in this PMs you can delete the message for yourself which means you can choose not to have a copy sent to you, reporting a post doesn't mean getting banned, you're only drawing the attention of the moderator to that particular thread for further necessary action.

So far, I reported 3 posts with 100% accuracy, 1 of the 3 reported is my post.  I don't know how that 100% comes, because my post i did report some time ago, maybe still be unhandled or hasn't been seen by a moderator. (It might also a bug percent calculation)

Maybe the results seen was from the last one you have sent, also you don't need to worry as long as you're on point about the mistake you did in reporting, the comments made also goes a long way in explaining the purpose of the report made, example if you reported the thread to be moved, you're likely to end up on same accuracy, what you're reporting about matters here.

It's a kind of feature that is not useful because not everyone can accidentally report his own post or mistakenly report a post and if you happen to report a post it's up to the moderator to decide if it's worth deleting or retaining.
Just be aware next time of what you are reporting, I have never encountered reporting one's own post you can prevent this by checking all the details and double-checking if it's worth reporting or not.

like decimal, maybe better if langer than <5 after the comma. if still >5 like 0.11, in math is still 99%.

the question is how to know he was reported by you?,
Because I got a lot of posts deleted (about 30-40 posts), Until now, I still don't know who reporter my post.

So do you imagine what will happen if you report it, a moderator received it and is handling it but then you cancel that report. I will cause a conflict on the system and to resolve or prevent such conflict, it needs more time to code.

look yes, but I was imagining if withdraw button was applied, maybe if the moderator received and take the report (like handled) the withdraw button disappear. But If never yet seen and handle it, the withdraw button appears.

You don't need to know who reported your post, if your posts are getting deleted its probably for spam or low value on which you should be concentrate and how to avoid such reports in future.

About the topic even if you reported your own post by mistake, you are supposed to give a reason while reporting right so what's that. Mods will decide about the wrong reporting and mostly it will be marked as bad when you report a good post of yourself or others but the fact is you no need to worry about the bad reports especially only with 1 of your total 3.

I want to know because I am just curious and want to compare it to the reporter's post.
I know, we can appeal by clicking the button report to admin on a personal message, but i never used it yet, I don't know how it works because there is 5 admin, and I still don't know which one should i choose.

About withdraw report to moderator button (if troublesome enough on page) maybe better to put it on the personal message place.

It won't happen. Reports are anonymous and have always been that way.

There are only 2 admins, the rest are global moderators. In the context of what you wrote, I don't understand why you would use that option at all, because the "report to admin" option serves to report another member's personal message if there is a need for it. So in the event that someone sent you a message that contains inappropriate or malicious content, which could be a death threat, blackmail, a link to a virus/malware or something similar.

[Aanuoluwatofunmi]

If you make a report that seems to contain a neutral action or response then there's no need of disturbing yourself towards withdrawal because once sent it has been recorded unless you wrongly reported a thread, such may not be put into account for tour report accuracy, the reason for the report also matters here, there are times we report others and get accurate of it, yet everything remain recorded irrespective of being accurate or not, the best thing to do is to give a caution while reporting, not everything that doesn't suit our personal interest should end up being reported.
