As I bump I wish to add to my response @ FantaExotic.
in particular to this section of the statement,
"If an early bump is reported int a topic, and the topic itself is not early bumped, then it is further checked."
I am not aware of the tools and access at a moderator's disposal, but I'd imagine it would still be some work to check through numerous thread listings of multiple days. Just because the initial reported post doesn't seem to be breaking any rules.
A notes section could not only bring clarity to reports, but also save moderators time from having to further examine what appears to be false claims.
I would like to stress that I realize this is a "minor threat" example. With how long these posts float about though, I would not like to disclose harsh exploits to the system. Publicly.
I can't explain how our tools for looking into reports work, but I can tell you that adding a note system wont really make a difference for us as we review entire topics when a post is reported.
If we feel like we need anything implemented to make our work easier, it's a discussion we will have internally.
