I sent 150 reports with the same description to the same posts, but another moderator decided not to touch them and gave me BAD. 51 BAD for 150 reports. That's fucked up. I received less BAD for 90,000 reports sent. I sent 150 reports to deleted and edited posts and he didn't delete ANY of them. NO ONE. Instead, he installed BAD, and decided to leave the rest of the garbage in place or simply move it to another partition. Why is it needed there, answer me the one who processed these reports? Or do you think that by rearranging the garbage in sections, the forum will become cleaner?
I think that you are dramatizing this situation. Don't get me wrong, I want to thank you for doing such an amazing job, because of you and some other people, I see less spam but you are way too angry over ruining of your statistics. After all, I don't think that stat matters that much, it's also stated that one accurate report is worth many inaccurate reports but I got your point, it's pitiful when you have 100K successful reports and one day half of your yesterday made reports are inaccurate. But I think hilariousandco made a good point:
There probably should be some sort of statue of limitations on certain stuff because posts in dead threads from years ago really isn't an issue.
I think we should have an option to report users like him, i.e. users that have 0 meaningful posts but we should focus on present time. Not much people are gonna actively read posts from 2018 but modern topics should really be cleared.
It might be that the global moderator determined that the user did try deleting or covering up their posts in an attempt to hide something, and that every post could potentially be worth something if there was ever a scam accusation launched. Although, for me personally the threads which have no active accusations, and no replies, I remove.
Does this forum save the history of edited posts? Or what we see in live is the only data that this forum holds? If the second one is true, then I think it carries 0 benefit to keep these posts on forum. It's all edited and we can't see what was written at past.
If there are still ways to track these persons in case something happens, then that's good but how can they be tracked if their data before posts were edited aren't saved?
