Well I was quite baffled as to how it is calculated, because in the past few days I reported posts that I think were unrelated to the OP itself, and after waiting for several hours, my accuracy is still at 0%. However, I checked it again when I reported another post that is unrelated to the original discussion, and there it is displayed that I am 100% accurate with regards to my reports. So far I have reported 5 posts (and it was an achievement for me, yes) with 100% accuracy.

actually I have reported *1706 posts , I wanted to say "in these last months (february-march) I reported those 200 posts but my accuracy is still immovable at 86%". Sorry if I was not clear in my previous post.


*You have reported 1706 posts with 86% accuracy


Since I already have a spreadsheet up, I did the calculation again. 1469 good vs. 239 bad turns out to be 0.8600702576% and thus barely over 86%. To reach 87% you need to get to 1600 good vs. 239 bad, or 131 more good ones without a single bad one. Again ignoring unhandled.

If I reported a post which was against the forum rules and it gets removed, I should get an increase in my Report post accuracy, should I not?

But I don't see it happening every-time. I report a post and check whether it was removed or not and when it does, I check my accuracy but it does not gets increased every-time? Huh

It happened just now, reported a post, it got removed, no increase in accuracy?

If you report posts rarely, your rating may increase immediately. If you report a lot of posts, it will take sometime. I don't know the fomula used to calculate this. I guess theymos hasn't posted it here.


.... and what about me, reported +200 posts ans still 'blocked' to 86% ? The reports are marked good or bad, but in this case I do not know if my reports were ignored because my report accuracy is still immovable at 86%.

I did the calculation in the past, but I could not find the post. So Ill just do it again with your numbers.

200 reports 86% good, thats 200*.86 = 172 good reports and 200-172 = 28 bad reports. We assume there are non unhandled. That happens and they dont count towards your percentage, but towards the number of total reports.

In order to reach 87% you need to make a total of 188 good reports, or 16 more, without a single bad report.

Edit:

If we do those again with mine (3293 @ 95%) and take the same assumptions, I have 3128 good and 165 bad reports. In order to reach 96% I would need to make a total of 3960 good reports while still only having 165 bad reports, thats 832 good reports with a single fail.

Edit2: Thus its prefectly normal for the percentage number to change almost never. It took me several months to go from 94% to 95% and I remember there was one bad report and I was down to 94% for a few months again. The moral of the story? Care less about those numbers as long as the one on the left increases and the one on the right does not drop drasticly.

I have noticed an increase and decrease in my accuracy rating. When my report is considered and it gets deleted, my rating increases. This is because I report very few posts.


I don't think there is a special formula used here as if you report 100 posts and 70 are considered valid, your accuracy is 70%.

I have heard that there is a formula, but it is not public (I cannot find the posts made by theymos).

Nope. Depending on the number of reports you write, the number barely changes.

But I don't see it happening every-time. I report a post and check whether it was removed or not and when it does, I check my accuracy but it does not gets increased every-time? Huh

It happened just now, reported a post, it got removed, no increase in accuracy?

How many reports did you write in total?

Exactly, besides the number is rounded down, thus 70.999% is still 70%

Accuracry is calculated in percentages, and if you have a lot of posts reported,its possible that percentage wont increase enough for it to be visible.
From what i see, post report can also be neutral, when there is somewhat valid report, but not enough to have it removed.
It is possible that mod didnt feel like your reported post is bad enough to have it removed, but later on has received another report from others, so he in the end removed it anyways.
imho, i dont think you should trouble yourself with percentages, you should report whatever you feel is wrong, and if staff doesnt feel the same way, well boo-hoo, atleast you tried and gave your opinion.

cheers
Neutral doesn't exists. A report is either good or bad. The only other option we have is ignoring a report and that means that someone else will handle it (so it will be good or bad at some point).

If I had to guess I would go with the accuracy part. I have reported a ton of posts and my accuracy is barely increasing (or decreasing) because of that.

It is very strange, the calculation is a little bit "difficult" to understand but I have found these topics:

- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/how-many-post-have-you-reported-with-what-accuracy-984359
- https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/report-accuracy-changed-without-me-reporting-anything-931819
- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=624427.15


I don't still have understand how the accuracy is calculated.
