ok i had the same shit happened to me before when i thought that moderators will handle my reports on scammers.

The problem is this: the market place is not full of spam, it's more like full of scam.

i reported posts from users who everyone and their grandmother know that they are scammers, even the scammers them self are about to neg tag themselves for how scammy they've been, and guess what? NOTHING was deleted and my report accuracy was terrible.

then i did my research and found the scammers are not directly moderated for scamming, sadly most of them are smart enough not to copy and paste so reporting them for plagiarism is almost impossible.

the best thing to do is to tag them.

another retard who suggest trust abuse...
why would i tag anyone ? why would i judge people ?
we need less people like you in this forum.
we need more moderation.

We need more mods because the current seems to busy to handle the requests

If you are able to provide enough reason about the reporting posts than moderators will obviously take actions. Its your responsibilty to keep reporting spam with valid info and let our mods to handle the rest of the work.

I beleive if everything meet the requirements than moderators will definitely take it on their mind. No chances to think that reporting spam is a waste of time.

Keep reporting, but you need use proper comment why you are reporting that post, otherwise moderators will unable to handle it.

I second that statement, and I'd also like to get an example of how Rambotnic reports posts, i.e., what he writes in the report field. That may not be the problem, but I'd say you definitely have to be accurate with what you write and write it in such a way that it's easily understood by the mods.

And no, it's not a waste of time reporting posts. My advice would be to not look to see if your report got followed through on--when I report a post, I just do it and forget about it. Once I've reported it, the matter is no longer in my hands anyway. Sometimes it takes a while for a mod to see the report; sometimes it never gets seen or handled. Doesn't matter to me, because I've done my part.

If nothing else I get a sense of satisfaction that I at least did something about a shitpost or a post in the wrong section or whatever. Obviously I can't force Rambotnic to see things that way, but I'd certainly advise him not to stop reporting.

When a report stays unhandled, this does not mean that no moderators were available to look at it; rather, it means that several moderators looked at it, but none of them was sure whether it should be acted upon or not. A report that stays unhandled can be thought of as "soft-bad", since no moderator positively thought that it warranted action.

Keep reporting, but you need use proper comment why you are reporting that post, otherwise moderators will unable to handle it.

Do not worry about your accuracy too much; one accurate report is worth many inaccurate reports.

Below is my report result, do you think I have wasted time?

Where did you report the posts? Some local boards don't have moderators.

Never posted on local board...
They are mostly in marketplaces.

It would help if you link reported posts.
Unhandled reports usually means moderator is not sure that action should be taken, or, as you said - moderator is too busy with other reports.
