Interesting, if that's the case I'm not entirely sure what causes the unhandled, but deleted scenario. I'll try to figure out the root cause for this. Are you sure that these reports were removed from the report queue though?

The only thing I am sure about is that, these unhandled reports have not been made in the last 30 days. Because they are not shown in my report history. But they are considered in number of unhandled reports.
Now I have 9 unhandled reports, but I cannot find them in my report history.

Assuming unhandled reports are removed after a certain time, number of my unhandled reports should be zero. But it's 9.

It seems that, even if unhandled reports are removed from the report queue after a certain amount time, they are considered in calculations forever. Now I have 9 unhandled reports, while there is no unhandled report in my report history.

My idea was;

1. User reports post
2. Report is not handled for more than 2 weeks
3. Report disappears in report queue
4. Post is either reported again, and deleted or just deleted outright for whatever reason
5. The report made by the initial user still remains unhandled, but shows up as a striked through entry in their report history

Well, you can see how many good/bad/unhandled posts you have, and if that unhandled number is still high, that means those posts are still there. With that being said, I experienced few times that post was marked as unhandled, while it was actually crossed on the list, so it means it was deleted. Some kind of glitch i guess.

I haven't experimented with this, but I'm guessing this is either because the report was removed from the report queue after a certain amount of time (I believe 2 weeks), and then was deleted by a moderator after that fact it caused the report to still show up in your report history because it goes back 30 days, but reports that haven't been handled in the report queue are removed before 30 days.

Again, I haven't exactly experimented with this, and I haven't confirmed the 2 week period.

From all the other members which have unhandled reports made a long time ago: do you still see them in the reports log?

Report history will only let you see reported post in last 30 days, and since those reports were made on April 16th, that means they are not visible anymore. And by the way, congrats on reaching 300 good reports, now it should be a bit easier to track these stuff. I know it was for me.

Could it be that they were deleted for some reason

As far as I can remember (I haven't looked at that page in a long while) it only shows reports up to 30 days. I might be wrong on that exact number, but it doesn't show your entire history of reports. This would make sense if those reports were reported on the 16 of April, as its now the 22nd of May (Pizza day!).

This is something that I should look at putting in my reporting effectively guide once I update it.

Thank you for the details. But do they disappear only on mods side or also on my side?

They'll appear unhandled on your side.

Meanwhile I reached to have more than 300 good reports, meaning I can now see all my reports and all their statuses. From what Welsh said above, I understood that I should still see the reports made a while ago, including my first reports - which are the ones made for goanadupabitcoin and Nea Sandu, which determined the apparition of this topic.

However, now that I have access to see all my reports, these ones are not showing at all. The oldest report I can see is one from April 30th, while the ones for goanadupabitcoin and Nea Sandu were made on April 16th or so. Unless the old unhandled reports disappear also on the reporter's side, what could happen with these reports of mine? Could it be that they were deleted for some reason (action which makes me think even more that the respective two users are protected by Cyrus)?

You can send only one report on per post that violates the rules.
If you send two reports to the same post, then 1 report will be marked as “Good” 2 report will be marked as “Bad”

What about reports that are not handled, is that also a bad report or is the report no longer visible to the mod ?
So far, I have had a number of reports that have not been handled and as far as I can remember they have been a long time, maybe a few months ago.

If the report is marked "unhandled" then this means that it has not yet been processed.
Or no moderator wants to make decisions on it. This is a controversial report that cannot be categorized as Good or Bad.

In any case, only moderators can give a more complete answer.

Mprep already explained that on the first page of the topic (the 15th post). However, from what I understand from malevolent (three posts above yours), the unhandled reports older than 2 weeks are not seen by mods anymore, thus if I'd report again the respective posts there should be no reason for flagging them as duplicates and, as a consequence, "bad". Besides, Welsh (who posted right above you), said that I can report again the old unhandled posts, without saying anything about the chance to be considered duplicates and "bad", as a consequence for being duplicates.

Besides, what is the best approach in a situation like this? Should I just forget about the previous reports? Or should I renew all the old reports (meaning to report again all the previous posts)? Any suggestion, please?

Ummm....situational. Some reports are purposely left unhandled as that's actually the best way of handling it rather than giving someone a good report or a bad one. So, your reports may have been handled (or unhandled Tongue

) in that way. Hence its usually considered for unhandled reports to be a "soft" bad. However, if you're absolutely convinced they need to be removed or the user needs to be handled with you can try reporting it again, or contact a moderator for clarification.

It is only normal that mods forgot to delete the posts that are reported and marked as good since there are many posts that are being deleted and don't forget there are other posts that are reported so, I would say that they have more work to do because of the posts being reported.

Mistakes happen but I don't think it's a very frequent occurrence.

Quote from: Rikafip on May 09, 2020, 01:40:12 PM

But I must say, since 3 weeks passed, chances of your posts getting deleted are slim to none. I hope I'm wrong, but that was my experience so far.

I think unhandled reports disappear after two weeks or so, so no moderator can handle it after that and it will forever remain unhandled.

I have now over 300 reports, but I don't see which ones are the ones handled and which are not handled... I can see just the overall percentages for good, bad and unhandled ones (it shows I have 385 reports, 84% accuracy, 84 good, 16 bad and 285 unhandled)... Is this how it's supposed to be? I thought I could see the status for each reported post...

As hosseinimr93 told you, you need 300 good reports in order to get access to report history, but keep in mind that even when you get it, it will only show posts reported in the last 30 days, so unless you reach that number fast, I think that you won't be able to see those posts that you reported 3 weeks ago. So if you really want to reach 300 good reports asap, I suggest you check this list with few dozens projects that hired bumping service and find some thread and report posts in bulk. There are some straight up scams on the list like Coinsbit, Goldario, PZM etc.

But I must say, since 3 weeks passed, chances of your posts getting deleted are slim to none. I hope I'm wrong, but that was my experience so far.

So there seems to be an error. If I reported 100 (or 103; don't remember exactly) and I have an accuracy of 34%, this should mean that 34 posts were deleted. However, only 8 were deleted, which means 8%. Why?

Similar thing happened to me few days ago. I reported bunch of posts, and according to post history reports were marked as good, but they were not deleted at all. So after 24 hours or so i reported them again, an this time they were deleted. I guess mods simply forgot to delete them in the first place. I made post about it in Spambusters thread.

It is only normal that mods forgot to delete the posts that are reported and marked as good since there are many posts that are being deleted and don't forget there are other posts that are reported so, I would say that they have more work to do because of the posts being reported.

To become able to access your report history, you must reach 300 good reports not 300 reports in total.

Once you reach 300 good reports it becomes much easier, as before that you don't really know which ones are good/bad when you report in bulk.

However, by manually checking the posts numbers of goanadupabitcoin and Nea Sandu it seems no other post of them was deleted, thus all my reports for them are still unhandled, although I made the reports 3 weeks ago.

It's been two weeks now and my reports are still unhandled... Is there any hope to have them checked?

By not having them analyzed seems that the respective spams are somehow encouraged, instead of being limited...

Thank you again for the detailed explanation. I'll keep waiting, in this case. However, I'm really curious how these reports will be handled (assuming they will be handled).
