I think I got you. Ill make an example to be sure.
Lets say I report the above post by hilariousandco as spam (its a mere rephrasing of my answer and Im sure they can take the joke its meant to be). This would be report #1.
Now I browse the board a bit, someone else replies, I forget what the thread was about because I have the attention span of a squirrel and start reading again from the top. I notice hilariousandco spamming and report the same post for the same reason. That would be report #2.
Thank you!
Hope any lines won't be taken out of context!
As hilarious and I said above, this should not be a problem for the mods handling these reports as they probably receive more reports about that hilarious spammer by different users and thus have several reports for the same issue anyway.
You both are right. If muliple reports are high, a report won't do much pain but 1 report less is still good IMHO.
When you delete a post or move a thread out of your jurisdiction it usually auto handles them anyway.
That means, if mod respond to shorena's first report and deleted it, the second report will be marked as good automatically? Sorry for the stupid question.
Edit:
It still doesn't matter that much as how many times do you report the same post? (though it does happen from time-to-time but it's not a big deal), though maybe it could be changed so once you click the report button it changes to you have reported this post or you're blocked from reporting it again or something.
Something like that would be good.

Deleting a post, yes. Moving a thread, no. It hasn't been handled, the report just disappears from your queue because the reported content is no longer in a section you moderate. In these situations, the report could be handled before reloading the page, or before moving the thread (after checking the validity of the report of course).
I don't know if I get you exactly. If it goes from hilariousandco's queue to mprep's, how could the report be handled? Can he know if the report was moved earlier or should he have to look modlog? If modlog is the choice, the limitation of the actions showing will affect, right?
