i've said it before and i'll say it again. give me a spec and i'll (try to) write you a tool.

i'm a competent coder, but i have no idea kind of what mod tools are needed.

  1. Report queue. Right now, reports go to a queue that both instance owners and mods use. This makes it impossible to mod because the instance owners mark items as completed before mods even had a chance to look at them.

Now, if it's the case where it's user abuse it's fine for the instance owner to take care of it.

But if it's just breaking the rule of a community, the instance owner should never even see it.

Separating the queues would help both mods and instance owners.

  1. The ability to hide a community from All and/or Local. Some communities just aren't appealing to the general public. And when All surfers see posts, they just downvote them into oblivion.

these could be a little more difficult. they seem to be instance level features.

i might be able to do a tool for the first one using filters if there is a way to insert keywords into a report e.g. "To Mods" or "To Admins"
