    Suggestion for Report a Scammer section

    Well, I believe that instead of going through all the scam reports and banning, denying, etc that there should be a simple mod to filter out the reports. A mod or two would comb through the section, checking proof and if it is insufficient they mark the report as insufficient. Thus giving themselves and the other mods a bit of a break when they want to clear the pages of reports out, without having to go through them if they have no valid proof.

    TL;DR: Mark scam reports that don't have enough proof, giving ones that do more priority when a mod clears the section out.

    Also, give MOAR mods permissions to actually go in there and deal with them, instead of the select few that can.

    There are 11 global moderators that should be helping out now, and an additional 4 sectionals. Once things settle in, the reports should become tolerable again.

    Globals can cover all sections, not only the mods that are assigned the report a scammer section.

    You miss the point entirely. I'm not asking for more people to moderate them, I'm asking for a quick and easy flag button for ones with insufficient proof. It's a lot easier than checking them at the side of the forum 10 at a time and clicking delete.

    I mean a simple button. It doesn't take much to scan through a thread. The distinction between proof and no proof at all is fairly clear. Instead of going out back to the main forum, clicking a box by the thread, and clicking delete every time you move a page forward/back, it's just a visible flag that shows it's not worth looking at the next time around.

    TL;DR 2: It's a more efficient way of showing if a thread has no proof than deleting it. Which is a pain.
