Time between Reporting posts

I never liked it when people would put URLs into spam reports. They don't hyperlink, and the way I would power through them, it would end up taking 3x as long just to copy+paste the link into a new tab and stuff. Maybe that was just me, though; maybe the current mod staff prefers it this way instead.

When I was doing them, I didn't mind when people did that. It's much faster than reports on numerous posts on one thread. I think users should just paste the URLs into spam reports and/or tell a moderator there is additional spam on that thread so they could look it over and delete the spam. I think it's fine the way it is.

This has been suggested and denied before, it opens up the possibility of abuse. If you multiple posts to report, report the thread and link to all the posts that are counted as spam.

Not entirely true, it used to be 3 minutes or something like that, maybe it was 90 seconds, I don't remember anymore.

 

I support, if there is no good reason not to.

It can be extremely annoying to wait.
And if someone abuses it, it is easy to tell as all reports are coming from him and can simply be archived.
If however he had a legitimate report, I am sure someone else would have reported it as well.

True this.

When I submit a report and move on, sometimes I'll find another on a different thread in less than 10 seconds, it's just an annoying wait with no good reasoning behind it.
New donor perk? Yess.

EDIT - @ post above me, it used to be 5 minutes, which was bullshit.

Wulf, I'm on about multiple threads, not posts.

I support this; no reason people should have to wait longer for reports than for posts.

^ Thanks, forgot about this ;D

If it was 30 seconds I wouldn't mind reporting posts more often, refreshing the browser for 60 seconds is a pain in the ass.

I don't see why 30 seconds is any different than 60. Its still waiting. >_>

 

[Pokerking88]

It is better than 60 though :/

 

[polabear345]

Support. Way too many situations when two or more people are spamming and I just click out because of the wait >.<

Might want to make it a 15 second wait maybe?

I Support the idea, eventhough you could still browse the forums while waiting

 

[SmperFidelis]

I support. Only argument against it that I can think of is abuse of the system. Besides that, I would like to see it implied.

I guess people could abuse the system, but I really don't see it. If someone abuses it, just take their rights to report posts away.

Can we bump this?
