Right now I have no idea how the flagging works but I just had a massive idea that could increase the flagging percentages.
Basically when you flag the comment you flagged will become a certain colour when moderators are looking through they will see the flagged comment and have a look.
To prevent the idea of people spamming flags I had a rank idea.
Basically you start and rank one. When you flag a comment it becomes grey. Moderators will not pay much attention to these because they are probably fake flags.
To achieve rank 2 you must for example have 100 flags correct and have had no more then 10 wrong. Your comments will turn a purple. Moderators will pay little attention to these.
To achieve rank 3 for example you must have 1000 flags correct and have had no more then 100 wrong. Your comments will be in pink. This is the basic level where moderators should normally have a look.
To achieve rank 4 for example you must have 5000 flags correct and no more then 500 wrong. Your comments will be in yellow, brownish. Moderators NEED to pay attention to these. If a flag is made wrong at this level and is completely wrong they go back to rank 3 and must start all their flags over.
To achieve rank 5 for example you must have 10,000 flags correct and no more then 500 wrong. Your comments will be in red. Moderators check these flags before all else. If a flag is wrong and you flagged without reason you will go back to rank 3 and have to start your flags again.
If there is two flagging the same thing they both get a correct flag.
Comments not flagged will be in normal.
Colours can be different and requirements can be different.
Also I was thinking you know the other idea about getting AP every time you flag. How about only getting AP when you make correct flags (Eg: 10 flags = 1 ap)
It seems a great idea to me but i guess many will come and say: Why do you want more points?
Awful question. I want more points to have more Armatars. That is to tell them every time they say something like that.
Anyway the idea is really excellent. if the mods reduce the amount of flags i guess it will be very good. But how do they know which are the wrong flags???????

if the person is just spam flagging people for no reason or they are troll's
I don't think this is a good idea because if the mods aren't supossed to pay much attention to the rank one flags they will not notice if they are correct or not.If they don't notice that then no one will ever get to rank 2.For this to work mods would have to pay the same attention to all the flagging and in that way this new system would be useless.As for the Ap thing I think we have enough ways to get them.
I used to think you flagged your comment so people could see your good comment, like a merit ;-)
When instead you are telling the admin your comment should be deleted. I guess this will be discussed during the AG3 stuff, so lock for oldish and stuff.
