TryNinja got those old posts from my archive, and has some of them too.

Yeah, I did see some of them were captured, hence why I said about scrapers potentially not having scraped all of them yet. I found a few posts which were sort of duplicates, and very low quality. So, I knew the type of posts most of them were, even though there was no edit history scraped on quite a lot of them. Also, not sure how they went amiss at the time of being posted, because that's a lot of threads being posted in a rather short period of time. However, it was also at one of the time's the Altcoin section was at its busiest, so that probably contributed. 2017-2018 was by far the biggest spam wave we've ever seen.

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.

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?

Yeah, the edited posts are very likely in the backups, and the admins probably have a fairly easy way of looking at the edited posts history. However, normal moderators don't. I'm not sure, if Global Moderators have more access to this sort of information, but I don't think they do.

Generally, I don't tend to rely too much on web scrapers, because there's potential for issues there. However, I don't personally see the significance of a lot of these threads, when they were likely all low quality to begin with. Although, this might be a conversation to be had behind the scenes, and potentially change our view points in order to have more cohesion. Like I said, I don't take complaints as being hostile, I just see it as a opportunity to evaluate, and look at other perspectives.
