Hilariousandco has a point... Just report one post and state everything, ex. "there are similar post from this forumite on different threads/boards" that way, we can check the profile of the said person and do what's necessary...
Moderators sometimes give conflicting answers. It's either the above, or sometimes they say it's easier to handle them if they're all reported.
I wouldn't dare speak for anyone else but because different mod levels have different abilities I think this may lead to some conflicting answers?
I don't get a lot of reports in the P&S section but if its a general "low/no value" type report than I personally want to see each report so I can run down the queue handling reports quickly and efficiently. But the little P&S section is nothing compared to all the boards with no local mods in which the globals end up taking care of so perhaps they don't want a million individual posts reported?
I can't "handle" request for ban type reports, so they get "left" by me and in the queue for a global mod to handle. I can see why they wouldn't want multiple posts reported about the same "user" issue and I'm pretty sure they do check profiles to get info on the user.
It's definitely kind of annoying to have to think if a board has a local mod or global mod and is it a shit post or ban type report but at the end of the day I personally like seeing any reports LOL!!
I've never looked at a report (
from a legit user) and said to myself "I wish they hadn't reported this" or "this user is an idiot for reporting this". Even if I disagree and mark it as a bad report, I still appreciate the report none the less.
Well hope this helps with a little perspective from your friendly neighborhood P&S mod!
