Is there anyway to identify the list of people who have reported most? Because those kind of people were deserved to be mods.

I too already voted for the five persons but still much people not interested in adding the new mods since we have very less votes on the pools.

he posts a list of the top whatever reporters every now and then. hopefully i'm still in the top 50 list with all the time i've taken off the forum. i feel we're due for another update pretty soon though.

What? How so? Nothing much has changed other than shitposters now need one merit and once they get that it's business as usual (and it's really not hard to get at all whether you buy it or not). Bitcoin Discussion is still a spam fest and people are still shitting up it up 24/7 and that's not going to change anytime soon or until signature campaigns are punished for paying for spam. In the meantime we can add some mods to help clean the place up.

BD is desperately crying out for moderation. I've been reporting several spam mega threads a day for the past couple of weeks to be locked or trashed - they always are, but sometimes it is taking 48-72 hours for the reports to be acted upon. I'm not saying this in a derogatory way, but the global mods clearly have just too much to do without also being board mods for the majority of boards that don't have a dedicated mod.

yeah, it seems lately we've lost more staff than we've taken on, and there are big gaps of time when reports just aren't being handled quickly enough, which is problematic from time to time. for example, there was a spam newbie account that was posting thread after thread of nonsensical garbage, and even with the restriction on time between posts, they managed to fill just about the entire first page with spam threads before a patroller / moderator was able to see my reports and nuke the account.

I'm not sure if the staff are struggling to keep up with the current rate of reports (i would assume not) but i think it'd be a great idea to have some carefully chosen additions to the team so that we can have fewer gaps throughout the day where there (normally) would not be any moderators present.

Only theymos has access to those stats. He posts them occasionally but hasn't in a while. He sent me the top reporters in Bitcoin Discussion a few months ago after I requested them, but no further action was taken.

well now that we have access to our own stats, it'd be possible to compile a community list in the case theymos for whatever reason isn't willing to compile another top 50 list in the future.
