Can great leader of this forum theymos implement "report user to moderator" button? It would be much easier to report user, reporting post by post by post is kind waste of time and energy and won't do much unless we report all "one line" posts or all spam posted by single account(which I honestly gave up doing), we basically need to open all posts, report it one by one and wait for...hm...5 seconds? between reports.
Example:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1383451It literally takes 2 seconds to see that this user is spamming, it would take another 2 seconds to report user and I am almost 100% sure that everyone will agree that we need "report user to moderator" button.
Also it won't be so bad to see who is banned(little "banned" sign would be ok IMO)
Thanks for reading, godbless and goodluck.
Two awesome suggestions mentioned by you, definitely worth implementing it.
I think that's a great suggestion. I've been wanting check boxes for all of a user's posts so I could report multiple posts all from one page...but I know that's never going to happen. And I'm curious as to what kind of response this will get. "Report User" along with maybe a field for a brief description of why the user is being reported would be quite handy. There are many, many users here who just write one-line shitposts, and it's obvious they're doing it to either rank up or meet a bounty quota. Those posts are zero-value, zero-thought, and they come by the dozens.
The checkbox thing would be really helpful if it is implemented in the main boards like bitcoin discussion, economics and the like. Theymos can just create another database for the "report user" button, and whenever a user wants to report another user, the latter would be stored in the data base, and Theymos or any mod can just ban them accordingly based on why they have been reported. A text area for a user to explain why he is reporting another would be helpful,as only a handful of people use the report button,so that he can explain why he is doing so.
A checkbox for ignoring users would also be very much helpful.
