Hello.

When a new scam resolver (or resovlers) are promoted, they open new scam reports and approve comments fast. As time goes on, it slows down and they don't accept them as fast anymore. There's a select few that let scam reports go weeks being unattended and then just resign from the scam resolver position or resign from the staff member team in itself, thus leaving someone else to have to deal with what they've left behind.

If after a certain period of time, say 14+ days, of a scam resolver not tending to their assigned scam reports, other scam resolvers should be able to take on their scam reports. While this may make scam reports back-logged a bit, I personally feel it would be much better to provide support to those who have been waiting longer rather than just letting it be assigned to a specific scam resolver who is clearly too busy to handle it and say, "Sorry, it is already assigned to someone. They are busy and will get to it when they can" - This shows that nothing is being done about the time people have to wait for their scam reports to be handled by someone who is able to handle it.

This should also apply to support tickets as well. If a staff member is not responding to the ticket after 14+ days, another staff member should be able to take on the ticket.

I can't speak on how if tickets are backlogged since those are only seen by staff and the OP but scam reports are viewable to anyone who has an account on here.

I agree. Support as a whole needs a great amount of improvement here on Mc-Market.

Honestly, waiting times have always been a shitshow. They should either improve their systems or just hire more people.

I hands down agree, but please make it a week or less. Two weeks seems like too much to me

I'm not inherently against this as a general policy but there's really no use for something like this as of right now. The scam resolver team already as is have a lot going on which means keeping up with their own scam reports is hard, I don't believe any of the current scam resolvers have the time to take on other scam reports.

If we had no scam report backlog and team members have the time to take more from other scam resolvers, I think this is fine. However, we currently don't have that capability.

With that said, we're always looking for people to promote into that role so we can get the backlog down.

I am personally more than aware of how much goes into being a scam resolver, however, as I said, doing absolutely nothing with the reports that have been waiting 30+ days with no new comments just shows nothing is being done about the wait times.


They have enough on their plate, yes, but perhaps it's time to start discussing why so many people just up and leave for long periods of time then resign without handling their current load before leaving that specific role or leaving the team in itself? It's happened enough times that something should be said and done about it since it does negatively impact the community.

I mean I've had mine open since around the end of last month and it still hasn't even been approved by a moderator despite it literally having 7 views on the thread. I appreciate the work of the staff team but I've given more than enough evidence to get this person banned already and the fact that staff members have seen it and have just not replied to it is a bit infuriating.

I was false banned for ban evading (had no connection at all to the user I was accused of being), made a support ticket and they took about 8 months to finally reply & unban me... 24 days is nothing.

if an SR hasn't been attended to for over a week logically another staff member should be allowed to reply. Else its an aweful system

Another great example of this is Kuchy. Although nowhere near as bad as how roy left the community (leaving scam reports unattended for several months), it is still pretty bad.

When scam resolvers were opening new scam reports, they could have used that time to focus on ones where people were waiting even longer but instead, they couldn't because of the 'It's already assigned to a scam resolver' bullshit.

Kuchy's scam reports will be dealt with by other scam resolvers

After almost a month of inactivity and only because he is resigning. Roy went months without anyone handling his until it came the time he was resigning. Only because Kuchy is resigning is anything being done.

Way to state the damn obvious though. Of course the scam reports will be handled by one or more scam resolvers now that Kuchy isn't here to do them. :tup:

Why would there be a problem with staff leaving the team though? Kuchy was best to leave as he needed to focus more on school work which is better for himself
