(It should come directly below the textbox and everything below that should be pushed down.)
Reports should be shown in a table with the link to the reported post/thread, report date, and the remark, such as "Good", "Bad", or "Unhandled. Let me show you how I'm suggesting it to be.

The way I see it, as long as the moderators review the post before making any decision, then it's no biggie. The reported post or poster won't get some punishment if the report is marked as bad. This becomes an issue if the moderators don't review the post, which they always do.
The only issue here is a bad post might have gotten away with a report except you can remember the post to look for it. I also agree that special privileges should be given to those who constantly report posts because they keep the forum clean. [1] In some cases, mod/GM send you a private message to tell you why the report was marked as bad. maybe PowerGlove can help with this patch, As he helped with improving the privacy "Last Seen Online" Patch. [2] While it's a good idea, without additional permissions @PowerGlove won't be able to do anything.[1] I guess this is done to responsible reports. [2] When PowerGlove worked on the "Last Active" patch, was he given extra privileges, or did he open the SFM source code to implement that patch and forward it to theymos to make it official, If that's the case, then I am sure PowerGolve will come with something.

maybe PowerGlove can help with this patch, As he helped with improving the privacy "Last Seen Online" Patch. While it's a good idea, without additional permissions @PowerGlove won't be able to do anything. Except you are wanting to get the admin privilege otherwise it's not possible for you to have those options enable. But however, I believe something can still be done that way you said. That is true but both admin and moderators have the privilege. Yet there are some things that admin might be able to do but which moderators will not be able to do. It is also possible that this can be implemented and the reason for the suggestion. Even it can be done in a way some users will be be able to do it while other will not be able to.Maybe I will also suggest you create something like a vote or where theymos could give those who are more active in reporting post this privilege to only view and not deletion. Does this make sense to you or it's not necessary to create something like that? Can user that reported a post see his own comment? That is not possible. It would be good if it can be in a way that I can click on good, bad and unhandled that is at the right part of each report and be able to see my comment after I reported a post. I don't think SMF supports that feature, so it most likely has to be done manually; maybe PowerGlove can help with this patch, As he helped with improving the privacy "Last Seen Online" Patch.

Since there is a certain number of posts you will report to that will enable you to see which of your reports is marked as bad and which one is marked as good, which is not so for those who just start reporting newly, the option you suggested will be a good one; at least you can be able to judge yourself the reason why a report is marked as good or bad, either based on the misinformation on the comment before reporting, as you might be reporting for something else and end up adding another description to the report.
If you have some post unhandled that means the admin or mod have never given their final judgement on that particular post or those posts doesn't go against their standards IMO. I am not asking what unhandled reports are. You first paragraph is what that is related to my question. Let me quote it.

I was surprised to see that I reported a post which I did not remember that I reported. But definitely I reported it and it could be a mistake from me as I could have wanted to report another post instead. It has been long that my report was marked bad until I saw another one today which brought up this suggestion back to my mind.

Bad reports are not bad, but just what that brought up this question back on mind. Jump to:
