Question for the adverts mods. Whenever I (or anyone else in here) report an adverts ad with a fake watch in it, you guys are usually super quick to intervene and remove the ad. Kudos for that!
However when I report an ad for another reason, like "not marked as sold", most of the time nothing happens. From a user's point of view, the latter is extremely annoying and frustrating. You search for something, find it, read the description and the full bidding history, only to find out it is sold already. Why do you guys refuse to mark an ad as sold when you are made aware that it is sold?
Great questions, let me try and answer:
Something fake usually has some form of a legality breach behind it, and all fakes (not just watches) are treated equally - nuked on sight. Occasionally we make a mistake, and always have the option to put an ad back if we need to.
Regarding reports, theres lots (and lots, and lots) of reasons why people report an ad, and those reports end up in a big queue. Someone has to eyeball the reports, and decide if they need action or not - some need action straight away, and some don't. As a volunteer mod I do have access to the report queue, but I leave that to the Adverts staff to deal with, as they see fit. Sometimes that may mean a report is just closed. It's not up to me to mark an ad as sold, thats the sellers job.
While I'm at it, it's worth mentioning that occasionally we (the volunteer mods) may occasionally go against the 'grain' of an opinion, but that'll be because it's not my site, I'm not the boss, I only help out
