As far as I know Hilariousandco checks everything, he can't just trace 200+ accounts without investigating at their posts thoroughly... (He is like Robert Langdon)... 
When I think about a mod the first one comes in my mind is Hilariousandco because I see him very active in the forum. I like it calling him Robert Langdon So in other words, reporting without a valid comment (on the report section) will always ends up as a bad report?
It's not like that... We always look at the reported posts even if it is a blank report... If it's an obvious spam, then it should be deleted... But if you would report it the way those ICO shills are doing (Reporting posts that they can't answer themselves, or reporting posts that would
open their can of worms), then it is either ignored or labeled as bad, it is almost like reporting without any basis...
MODS don't just label a report "bad" without looking into it...
I believe Hilariousandco and you are global mod. You guys have more control than local mod like Flying Hellfish
It's pretty clear to me after reading all these feedbacks is, different mods has different views judging a report and they response different as well.
