 What do you mean? Abuse of reports from your friends? 
 I should probably read to see how it works. I assumed anyone can report anyone for impersonation and that would lower their WoT score, leading to possibly getting filtered out. 

IF that’s how it works, people could coordinate reports to limit someone’s reach by lowering their score. 

But maybe that’s not how it works … 
 Are follows and reports from outside your follows included in the wot calc @jb55 ? 
 Obviously not… 
 Good use of reports then 👍 
 💯 
 Yeah using reports from random people is a recipe for disaster and abuse 
 I think even trusting from your follow list might even be too much, its not like I trust the judgement from everyone i follow.

I would want to create a close friends list for this purpose 
 I was thinking if there is benefit in a “reports feed”.

We also have the set snowden as my moderator user story

 I think a close friends feature feels more natural and could be used for other things like private/giftwrapped stories and notes 
 Agree. Lists, public & private will be useful here 
 Like a Myspace top 8 that I can rearrange as my friends change in importance  
 Just dropped one of my 'top friends' off at the rehab, didn't feel safe with him in my basement right now. 
 Man did he ever fix the track on my kitchen drawer before we left though, boy I couldn't have found anyone better for that 
 Trusting from followers you interact with sounds better to me. Just an idea 
 Definitely not. I interact with people i don’t trust all the time 
 Yes this list is needed! 
 Thanks for clarifying for this idiot 🤝 
 Why idiot? 
 This happens a lot in Wow. They have an automated system that if several people report a person they lock him out of WoW for some time. Then people would abuse it. The guy playing against your team is annoying ? Insta ban, solved.
