They won't decrease your accuracy unless they are marked as bad. The reports are neutral until they've been handled in one way or another.
So there isn't neutral reports? If a person reports a post for moving a thread to Project Development but the staff moved it to Digital Goods. So is that post good or bad? The mistake he did was the way he saw it: You did report it, but it was still pending/unhandled, though one had been moved. Both of those do belong in digital goods. There's always going to be some overlap with project development and service announcements, same with trading discussion and service discussion, so there's no fine line. Some threads would fit fine in either, downside of board based forums. I agree with what Shorena said though.

-MZ IIRC BadBear once said that he handles most reports as "good" even when they are not 100% correct. E.g. if you say "should be in digital goods" but its moved into servies (or similar). It is still a good report as the report made the mods aware of a post in the wrong section and they acted upon it.

A report is marked as good if it would be appropriate for a moderator to take any action again the post/thread/user in question that is being reported. What you say in the comments field does not really matter in terms of how it is marked with the exception of the fact that your argument may bring attention to a rule that was broken or other fact that a moderator may otherwise have overlooked.

No. The only way it would be 'neutral' is if every mod 'ignored' it but that is unlikely to happen as someone will likey handle it or mark it as a bad report at some point. And whether a mod marks a report that is moved to a different section than reported as bad or not is up to them but I think reports are sometimes automatically 'handled' ie marked as good when they're moved to a different sub.

No, you can get bad report for comments, too. I have a bad report for commenting a thread to "Trashcan" which should be in "Archival" board.

If it would be incorrect for a moderator to do anything in response to a report at the time when the report was made, then the report is considered inaccurate. Reports are explicitly marked as incorrect by moderators. It's also possible (though rare) for a report to be marked as neither good nor bad -- such reports don't count toward your accuracy percentage.
Average accuracy is 56%, so 60% (66% now) isn't bad. Unless you're only reporting really obvious stuff, very few people will have accuracies above 90%. Even if you have the correct mindset for moderation, you won't know the policies well enough until you've been a moderator for a while.

Thanks all! I think I understood but not complete. And whether a mod marks a report that is moved to a different section than reported as bad or not is up to them but I think reports are sometimes automatically 'handled' ie marked as good when they're moved to a different sub.
Can reports marked as good by a staff be changed to bad in a very short time realising it was a bad report? -MZ

I am in confusion now. Can anybody explain please? Thanks! -MZ A mod has three options to deal with a report: handle, bad, and ignore. If you ignore it any other mod can still deal with it and only if every mod ignores it will it never be handled either good or bad, but I'm guessing those instances are very rare and it is very unlikely every single mod will ignore it.

If the staff member don't check the "report" it will stay neutral and your accuracy will not change. So theymos is telling that reports will stay neutral if it isn't handled/skipped instead of reports marked as neutral? Remember, the neutral I am telling isn't about unhandled reports. Edit: A mod has three options to deal with a report: handle, bad, and ignore. If you ignore it any other mod can still deal with it and only if every mod ignores it will it never be handled either good or bad, but I'm guessing those instances are very rare and it is very unlikely every single mod will ignore it.
Thanks! Please look above and sorry for my stupidity! -MZ

For hilariousandco and me neutral means unhandled, however I think it is easy to implement this type of report stats.

It's not possible to mark a report as neutral, it will just happen by default if everyone ignores it, so I suppose it's collectively marking it as neutral in those rare cases but there is no 'neutral / neither good nor bad' button.

For me too. My questions were related to previos questions and I didn't know how to define correctly(not a native/good English speaker). That's why you didn't understood correctly. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It's not possible to mark a report as neutral, it will just happen by default if everyone ignores it, so I suppose it's collectively marking it as neutral in those rare cases but there is no 'neutral / neither good nor bad' button.
When theymos used 'to be marked' instead of 'ignore', I was confused. Now I got it. Thanks again(incl. everybody who helped)! -MZ

Whether the reason for a report is important or not really depends on your perspective.
Some see it as a good report because it was brought to their attention and they were able to act on it, and the actual reason is irrelevant.
When you are looking at reports in the context of it possibly being a factor in someone being made a moderator down the road, the reason can be as important as the report itself.
