Topic: Seeking reporter badge images - page 15. (Read 28167 times)

That's exactly what it is   Man, I'm surprised.

It's so funny  , now I can't stop laughing silently. It's your fault xtraelv.

I thought it was a foetus.


I like this idea. Pacman is quite quirky.

At first look, I didn't recognised that it's a hand, after reading the above quote where you said that it's a hand and looked again at the image. I still can't recognise that it is a hand. I don't know why but I'm pretty sure that my eyes are working fine. It seems like a yellow person looking at some sort of files in his hand and in side view.  Though, I love those stars of yours more than these hands They're quite simple and looks good.

You might be right. But this badge will somehow encourage members that is too lazy to use "report to Moderator" button. It may cause suffering but Moderators are the only one who will encounter such problems that's why you have nothing to worry about. It seemed they agreed with it (also some members including me) so there's no much problem.

And how can you assure that many will report unnecessarily, don't you have trust in our fellow members? 
It's voluntary, it's up to them if they want to participate reporting. If they want to achieve the badge then they will surely help but if they don't want to, it will be just fine too. No punishment.
Actually you can see how many reports you have if you've already reported more than 50, but yes you were right, it's not shown in profile. Just click "Report to Moderator" button from any reply and you'll be able to see something like this.
After reaching 300 Good Reports you will be able to see your report history.
Something like BTCforJOE said might included in the implementation of the badge. If the pointer of the mouse is hovered in the badge a text will show up giving you information about how many Good Reports, bad reports and unhandled reports you have.

And yes, there will be no benefit. Like what I said it's just voluntary.

Any further questions?

Actually, tally marks are associated with imprisonment or some sort of durance (at least for me). I doubt that reporters wear the striped suits.:)


Or maybe ghosts added one by one and Pacman in the end like the final prize for the highest rank.:)
Unfortunately, it's unlikely to be implemented since Pacman itself is for sure law protected (unlike ghosts - untill their appearance doesn't resemble jellyfishes I guess).


Stars are simple - something that we call "lying on surface". Though it's not bad of course.
Helping hand is... conceptual. But I'm not sure that it's meaning is obvious.


Personally I don't like medals, shoulder straps, stripes on sleeves, cops caps, sheriff badges and other stuff that concerns militarism and other attributes of "duty persons". Reporting is not duty related yet, and these symbols are too strict.


Probably (at least I know that other SMF-forums have their internal banlists). But it seems that mods have to write the ban reason themselves (if it's not autoban), so it'd be difficult to align the badges with particular reasons (the static list of reasons to choose from is needed for that). Or it could be realized as additional option so mods can choose the badge for every ban. Thus the list would stick the bandge automatically, but possibly require to rewrite a great banch of code to work. And the option can seriously slow down the mods' work since they'd be distracted by the choice of badges.


Regarding the megaphone I think that gold should be the one to start from. The second one can be green (of different shade perhaps) and the final one should be red.

Why? It's just an image.


And why do they even report? It's already a process that doesn't involve thousands.


People already can look at their reports' amount if they have 25 good reports or more.


Something tells me that those who have thousands of reports don't think about limits. And I doubt that image can change this.

It seems the idea here is to encourage more people to report. I certainly used the forum for a very long time before I ever used the report button, I just never thought about it. From what I understand the problem is unreported spam, not unnecessary reports. People that haven't got to 300 reports yet will not have seen the Your reports page and this text "Do not worry about your accuracy too much; one accurate report is worth many inaccurate reports."

There is already a guide for this: [Guide] Reporting effectively

I can’t understand all your arguments properly. Nevertheless, reports will be validated by mods, so any wrong report will be rejected and thus will not lead to wrongful harm to anyone. Just a cleaner forum and more work for the mods and admins.

This looks good as well, it seems there are plenty of good icons to choose from now.
Would have been nice if the community could have voted for it, once a subset of images has been selected.

After introducing icon badges maybe some of you must also suggest how to do a good report.

  Is reports reviewed by mods?  If there are  badges already?  

@mdayonliner, You can find all thing If you search on google But Your icon is not copyright-free. You must submit a copyright free icon as theymos Said that

Dear @theymos I think it would be better not to start this process.

Why not start the process....
1. If this process is introduced then many will report unnecessarily. This may cause more suffering.
2. If anybody does not have any profit by launching this method then why will people report in the name of others?
3. People want to upgrade their rank. He will not see how many reports he has on his profile.
4. If you use a symbol, it will be in a limitation, there will be no Count of how many reports it has made, in which case a person can stop by a limited report, so I do not think there will be any benefit from this process.

If this method is to be used...
1. It would be better not to start any type of batch system. In this case, you will be able to use it in other ways, for example, I will show you the following. 


If you use Like this, then it will be noticed by everyone. 

2.  If you want to use a symbol, then you can choose some symbols from here. Personally, I like this sign, if you use this symbol, it is not bad.

I have given some arguments as to why it should be used or why it should not be used to use this symbol. If you feel positive about it, then think again.

Well you could still see the posts of the banned user and you will be able to report it to mod but The user is already banned.

It would really just be okay if it is one so that you would just know that the user is banned. Well, it’s no sense to put different categories to banned users. They are all banned. Probably just the red one.

I imagine this as a megaphone (because this draws attention to the message). Here's what I drew but I'm not sure about the color...

for 300 reports
for 1000 reports
for 5000 reports

That's how it might look like.


P.S. Gentlemen, if you have ideas about color, tell me and I will change the color maybe it will look better!!

I think it's too early for this. I doubt theymos is going to introduce a badge for which only he qualifies (>2000), with only satoshi reaching the badge for 1000+.

Note the difference (image from Amazon):


If you go to the Altcoin board, you can find thousands of posts worth deleting with no effort at all. It's very boring, and feels completely useless to do, but makes it very easy to quickly get thousands of good reports.

It's really good to see that the badges you made serves as a tribute for the Filipinos. Well, my thoughts about these icons make me feel that I should put more effort on making a contribution to our community. Some of the people have a mindset of automatically considering Filipinos as a Shitposters, then it will create a revolution to be better and to have a way for the great development of us.

Having these kind of icons really inspires me to do the cleaning in our local to avoid all the shitposters. From the start, we already making a move on this case.

Regarding about the icon, it's simple and aesthetic to look at. The three colors representing the color of our flag is really amazing.

I think a badger for 1000 or 2000 or whatever merits is unnecessary.
Merit already shows off in your profile. And the forum's discussions are too focused on merit already.

Badges could try to move the attention somewhere else...

Maybe something more bitcoin related. A community helper badger? I see some users like bob123 that are always helping users in the Technical Support board....

Or maybe a badger for a user that have completed bitcointalk courses?

Agreed, that would be better. However, I've suggested this before in other threads, and it didn't get implemented. That's why I tried the second best option: a "banned badge".

I wouldn't mind if this would be set as an Avatar for all banned accounts (if it's possible to add an Avatar to banned Newbies). Seeing accounts get banned could scare other users into following the rules (I hope).

Does the forum keep track of the reason why users have been banned in the past?
I'm not sure about the color coding, I can imagine many banned users would fit several categories.

I would like that, but I prefer to be able to see the banned status without being logged in (so I can scrape it).

Temp bans don't show up in modlog, and I wouldn't want to see temp bans in profiles. It's only useful to know which users won't ever come back.

Most spambots above Newbie only get banned, their spam stays on the forum forever. I care much more about getting a spambot banned than just having a post deleted.

Keep it simple, these erasers are very good and they send the message correctly. whatever you are going to pick, I want my badge as soon as possible, come on admin.
I can't believe that we have less than 200 reporters from more than 2M accounts, having the badge could also help merit sources to keep an eye out for good reporters and give them special treatment by finding their meritorious  posts first before others.

I think I agree with theymos here after seeing the amount of creative ideas for badges I think we need to find more reasons to have badges, and I'm excited to see what comes of the courses, and how it will tie in with the badges.

And I have second variant. Simple minimalism. Because this actual now


for 300
for 1000
for 5000

So it will look like this. For example

for 300


or
for 1000


and

or


P.S. I would be grateful if someone showed the icons. And for merit too
