Another thing you might mention is that you can't submit two lines in a report. One of my bad reports was a double post resulting from my submitting a partial report, because I wanted to include a qualifiction on a second line. I don't think that should have been flagged as bad, as the subject post was deleted. I

I've made that mistake a few times. It's just natural to press enter for a new line especially when you've include a link to somewhere. I'll be sure to add something like this. Thanks for the suggestion.

It makes me feel as if I am out of step with forum policies. If the mods want us to report posts, then they should do something to encourage us, not make us feel as if we are wrong.

The only way to fix your percentage is to report more Wink

. I've had a few thanks off staff members when reporting especially involving more complex cases, and I've also received some words of encouragement via personal messages.

Out-freaking-standing! I didn't know about seclog so learned something new; I changed my password a few days ago and sure enough it showed up in the log.

One quibble, though, is that entering "r=" or "/r=" (with or without quotes) into a Google site-search or the forum's native search just returns results for "R" and that, of course, is totally useless. At least it does so for me.

I haven't really said to use Google/forum search to find referral links this way because it's incredibly inaccurate. However, I have suggested using the CTRL+F on the patrol page for it as that has seemed to work for me. I also included that r= is a good way of spotting whether a link is a referral link. But, unfortunately there's many different identifiers for referral links. However, I'm struggling at the moment to come up with a way to precisely explain how they would look. For example, a ref link might be Bitcointalk.org/1646356. There's no real universal way to search for referral links via a search engine/forum search because of the varying identifiers.

I just finished reading the whole topic. Congrats mate for making it possible to bring everything in one place. You simplified this hard task with very easy instructions.

Spot on for me including the Examples section...

Honestly, this thread took more time than I would like to admit.

I'm hoping that users will be able to use the example sections for placeholders when reporting. Although, I found myself giving examples in the explanation section, because I wanted to keep the examples section as clear as possible so people can copy, and paste and then fill in the blanks if they wanted too.

PS: I think, instead of the html text filed - we need html textarea for the enter comment section on the report to moderator page. The current text field does not help that much when you are going to write in details about the reason of your report like: 8. "Death threats/threats of physical harm. ''

HTML textarea example:

Code:

I concur that the report field is far from perfect, and the suggestions you made sound great, however it does the job.
