If I may ask, why are there unhandled reports? Are the unhandled reports handled in the next month? Do they stay unhandled? I'm pretty sure they stay unhandled as I have 14 unhandled posts in my history and only 3 of them are recent.

What makes a report go as unhandled status and why is it not later handled?

Unhandled reports are simply that, reports which have not been handled for whatever reason. The reason can vary, in some instances it's probably the best thing to do. I'm failing to come up with any good examples, but there's been plenty of times where I've personally elected to do it.

However, the unhandled reports in this statistic is likely they were unhandled at the time of theymos scraping the data, hence why it varies from each period. So, a large majority of those were probably handled later. That would be my guess.

As for your unhandled reports. Some reports do stay unhandled indefinitely. This is when no one has taken an action on them, and then they eventually fall out of everyone's report queue. I don't know the exact time frame that is, but it does happen.

When a report is market as "unhandled", is it because moderators were busy or something or is it a way to acknowledge the report is not bad but not so good as to act either?

A report isn't marked as such, it just becomes 'unhandled' when it's been in the queue for x amount of time and is eventually pruned.

Partial answer, still searching this thread for more.

From my perspective, reports remain unhandled because no mod decided to take any action, based on their judgement. The report may technically not be bad (cause it would be marked as such), but it's a complicated situation and each mods chooses not to act.
AFAIK, the mods have a restricted board where they can discuss reports and in a case where a report is presented and no one can come up with a solution, it will be marked as bad.

Unhandled means it was not picked up by any mod at all; you only take action when something is handled. These numbers are insane, and there must be leftover cases every month; I'm curious if these unhandled cases are cleared every month. to make way for fresh cases?

I assume the unhandled cases are not ‘cleared’ every month as they would not show up in your report history anymore ?

Isn't there a standard? Do moderators not all agree on issues reported? Maybe there should be a standard?

@Ratimov, imo if we were to remove all posts that could be reported as a supposed-violation for fluff posting for a signature campaign (usually below-average communication-via-English abilities) .. we would have many, many posts disappear.

And that is a bad thing... How? If you need to fill your posts with a hard rethoric just to reach a quota; then maybe, you shouldn't do that post first place. It's always been said that it's not the same to post and get paid for posting; and to get paid for posting...

Unhandled reports might be revisited, since if the mod clicks ignore on a report, then that only ignores it for them. So, another moderator might see it in their report queue, and decide to act upon it. Although, once the period for displaying the report in queues is gone, then yeah unhandled reports aren't revisited, unless they're reported again in the future. As far as I know, if that happens, and it is then handled at a later date, it doesn't correct the initial report that was marked as unhandled. Although, I can't say I've ever monitored that, I'm just going on a logical assumption.

So, there's two ways of not handling a report. Either ignoring it (clicking "ignore" which removes it from your report queue) or by just ignoring it without actually clicking ignore, if that makes sense. So, the latter example would be not taking any action at all, whereas clicking ignore is technically an action which only really effects your report queue not anyone else's.

I've been meaning to do a detailed write up on my reporting effectively thread on when unhandled reports are actually the logical way of handling a report. Just haven't got around to it yet. It's on my to do list for this year Cheesy

There's nothing to see here, it's just that the amount of monthly reports coming in is much more than what the active mods can handle because most of the cases are handled manually, they're not bots I never expected them to handle all monthly reported cases, most of my last month reports were left unhandled I guess mod didn't pick it up

There are specific situations where leaving a report unhandled is actually the best course of action. Also, as suggested theymos releases this data at a certain point, if a user has reported a tonne of posts just before theymos collects his stats, then they're going to be unhandled. I'd say most of our reports get handled within a few hours, and the unhandled reports are probably much lower than this figure.

Isn't it true that unhandled cases aren't automatically revisited? Unless, if I'm correct, those cases are reported again.

I understand that is a mod actively decides to take no action on a report it will leave that mod's queue. Doing this is different than a mod simply not taking action on a report.

Presumably, theymos (and possibly other mods/admins) periodically pull reports containing all the unhandled reports that are no longer in any mod's queue and may revisit them and/or look for certain trends, and/or investigate if changes are needed, etc.

It really depends on when the reports were made, and when the cutoff for the reporting period was. For example, if someone happened t make many reports shortly before the reporting cutoff, it is possible that the mods simply had not yet had time to handle the reports.

Right, which is very likely the case here.

This is hardly the true reason for so many unhandled.

A useful piece of additional context would be of the ~1700 unhandled reports, how many were handled as of 48 hours after the reporting period ended.

For about 32347 reports that are was handled as good in relation to the bad reports the bad reports isnt much i guess.
But what me wonders is the unhandled reports since the last updates its 4 times higher as the last one .
Dont know maybe there are some reports that normaly shouldnt be reportet and the mods dont get to it.
I guess if that is the case a few reporters should be thinking about what they reporting , thats just my opinion but i can be wrong.

A large number of unhandled reports may be due to someone trying report old posts in topics with a lot of discussion. For example, a low-value post was written, someone gave an answer to it, a heated discussion ensued. I've heard that when a low-value post is deleted, then all the posts citing it, it seems, are also deleted. If a moderator sees that a low-value post has many replies, he will leave the discussion intact and will not process the report, marking it as unhandled.

One of the versions.

I am not entirely sure about the unhandled reports either, but I would say that it is due to:

1) The moderators don't see enough reason to act on the report or mark it as bad.
2) Maybe for lack of time or some other reason they remain unhandled. Although I thik of this second option as less likely.

But I do not agree with what you have said that I have put in bold. If moderators thought that those reports should not have been made, they would have marked them as bad. In any case, I suppose hilarious or some other moderator will clarify this.
