I think the people who report near or in excess of 1000 posts will be the rare exception, aside from probably moderators.

Is there a daily average of posts reported available? That would be interesting to see. Does the mods' job mainly just consist of handling reports?

Last time I counted it was about 150 a day. That's counting everything, including foreign language boards and alt currencies. I leave a lot for the local mods to deal with, reports is probably 1/3 of what I do at most. Most are thread moves/spam that takes very little time.

I'm actually surprised at that figure. I thought it'd be in the several hundreds. Was it a while since you checked? I imagine the figure will only keep growing over time.

I'm at 98% too. Which post was legitimate that I reported? I NEED TO KNOW Grin

You mean illegitimate? I'm also back up to 98% from an all-time low of 97 Tongue

.

Maybe my sentence was confusing. The report was illegitimate but the post was legitimate Kiss

Here are some updated stats:

Membergroup	Average accuracy
(all)	60%
Newbie	51%
Jr. Member	52%
Member	54%
Full Member	59%
Sr. Member	63%
Hero Member	73%
Staff	88%

In all, there have been 27,689 good reports, 8129 bad reports, and 1067 unhandled reports.

I think that this is all pretty good! Any accuracy percentage above ~25% is probably fine.

That's not a bad reporting rate at all and it does get better the longer your around the forum.
I guess I don't feel so bad now 90% accuracy so above the Staff level albeit on a much lower amount of reports
(Assuming the staff deal with at least 40 to 50 a day each)

90% on 29 so not to shabby mostly reports in the legal thread or that rare virus link that needs to die ASAP.
Still not 98% like the OP but the forum averages a pretty good reporting rate.

Edit 30 on 90% ^_^

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.

I have 131 reported post with 90% accuracy.

I hate spammers and people that blatantly post in the wrong forum with a passion.

If I could be a mod/staff/ability to move post in the Alt Forums, I could clean that place up as my persistence is well known.

Ignoring and -trusting people doesn't change anything when personal information is posted in threads. You can't see it but everyone else can. There was someone last year that was offering to send people free hardware (as an ASIC provider) and he'd the share personal details on the forums if people didn't pay him (address, name, etc.).

When personal information is posted (in a harmful way), these reports are handled correctly

I believe scam are not to be reported upon. Mods will most likely deny this kind of report. The tools to deal with threat & scam are ignore & trust respectively.

Just 4 days ago my reporting accuracy was standing at 100%. In last 4 days I have reported 3-4 posts for referral spam and post in wrong forum. One or a few of them has not been accepted and my accuracy has come down to 98%, though I have not received any message for bad report. I would like to know which post/posts were reported wrong by me ?

p.s. Is it the case that one can not start a self-moderated topic in Meta ?

You don't receive a message for a bad report, though I think it'd be beneficial if we could see them or our report history. I believe they're kept on the system for two weeks. Maybe a mod will let you know which one was bad.

I'd like it if they could add history as well, with a notice as to which ones were accepted/denied. I've reported people making threats to one another in the past and stuff and they were denied.

How long does a report take to be taken care of? do you know if it has been seen too? 1st report I made today and it's still on 0%.

There is currently no mechanism for us to see if our report has been dealt with for sure. You can try figure it out if it has been acted upon but there's no way of being sure, well, not unless you ask politely and maybe they will let you know.

Either way, as a leisurely user of this forum I wouldn't get too stressed out with bad reports. See it as a service that you are freely providing to help the community. Sometimes you're right, sometimes you're wrong.

All of those who are reporting, keep up the good work!

If you're not reporting a lot, you can watch your accuracy fluctuate. If you report a post today and it goes up a % or two, you know it was acted on. If it went down, you know it wasn't. It's not the best method but it works.

You reported something as being a virus but there's no proof, just guesses, so I left it for now.

Regarding the virus, you could submit the download link to VirusTotal and have it checked by multiple antiviruses.

Thanks for th suggestion I guess I'll take a look into doing that instead of jsut assuming.

It really depends, as already mentioned, on several factors. Some reports can be handled by more mods, some by less. Also, don't worry about the percentage, it's more of a reminder of what kind of posts you should report rather than judging the quality of those reports.

It probably depends on a number of factors. Time of day, mods online, number of reports currently in the que etc. Sometimes it can take a while to be handled and other times it's almost instantaneous. You'll find out soon enough.

I don't think there's many people like ckolivas. I should imagine he was leading by very far and I would expect a few people to be around the 800 reported posts. It's a eye opener really with those stats, I have contributed 529 reports to that figure. I wonder how much people report, looking at that figure It suggests that not a lot of people report. I should expect that most established members have reported successfully in the hundreds.
