[Idea] Note if reported.

Heres an idea. To save mods some space in their report queue or whatever, if 2 people report a post(2 so it doesnt count report abusers), there could be a symbol like a red X in the reported post. My idea is for it to be by the time posted, like 2011-05-10 23:57:43 X. This is for something like this: If there is a rule breaking post in a popular place(like a read before posting), a lot of people will report it. If this is added, we will know that that post was reported.

FAKE EDIT: Just had an idea. The time of post like 2011-05-10 23:57:43 will be colored red instead of an X by it. So it would be like 2011-05-10 23:57:43

I don't understand what you're saying.

Well, when you report a post the mods know it was reported.

I seriously have no idea what you're talking about. Time? What does that have to do with anything? The time of the report doesn't matter, as long as the post gets dealt with.

Yeah, well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.

The point is so we dont report a reported post. The time is just for an example.

Re: [Idea] Note if reported.

Oh, I see. I thought you were talking about the actual report queue, minimizing reports of posts that have already been reporting (e.g. a post gets reported twice; instead of getting 2 reports, they get one report with both reasons)

Yes. But I guess if there is an urgent post like in a forum raid, you can report it with the red BG and if a post is reported 5 times or more, it should show up red in the queue(I dont know if it would work, the queue is mod only or admin only, I forgot which.)

Or, the post could just disappear if reported too many times.

Time to troll the forums! Lets make a bot or if that isnt possible a mouse recording to report important posts 7 times!
