There have been concerns that some people might use sock-puppets to report their own posts in order to get a reporter badge.

You don't need sock puppets - Just be a part of a "gang" or wear a "gangs" colours, or gee, I dunno base ball cap or avatar, and your reports will be auto approved without any checks or balances.

Given there is no checks nore balances on the reporting of others' posts', then it can be taken as given the system is flawed and badges are not warranted.

This topic reaches 3 years tomorrow.

Which I personally take as a sign that reporter badges are never going to happen.

Is that such a bad thing?

theymos would be wise to implement a 3+3 system (three reports plus three admin/mods agreeing (and the admin/mods can't report to enable each-other's reports to be approved either))
