Nothing like a bit of motivation for long time reporters and newbies !!
Motivations have changed over time - but maybe, we tend to have a harder time finding bad posters when we ignore megathreads more often.
[/quote]Yep--I lost my motivation almost completely after Theymos created the merit system, since that seemed to reduce the motivation for idiots to continue shitposting. There was a time when I'd visit those spam megathreads and spend an hour or two just going through them and reporting all the nonsense, no-value crap to the mods. Usually I'd pick up on some alt accounts, too.
Speaking of spam megathreads, it's really,
really unfortunate that Bitcoin Discussion seems to still be one of the sections that hosts many of them (although I've un-ignored it recently). I've said that a few times before over the years and it holds true to this day. Bitcoin Discussion should be one of the best-kept sections here, and yet it's a haven for crap posters with little to say other than some words strung together, maybe with punctuation, maybe not. Ah well.
And yeah, I'd like to see some data on the current top reporters. Theymos gave us what, two reports in total? I know it isn't top priority for him, but it'd be nice to acknowledge the members who help keep the forum clean and do it for free and with nearly no recognition.
