I was just wondering if it's possible for a moderator to not reward you with
credits when you report because they possibly don't like you? Do you keep track
of who reports and note that a member is contributing to the community? Because,
how do you possibly know who's actually contributing? The moderators have to be
noting that somewhere. That's the only way that one can actually be promoted.
How would anyone know if someone has been contributing a substantial amount to
the community if no one noted it.
No one is being promoted on the simple basis of 'reporting'. A member has to be
constantly helpfull in MT to be promoted : writing thoughtfull comments or posts
in threads, reporting, helping out the mods to clarify some situations, giving
directions to newbies... such things can get someone promoted.
I think one of the mod has a site where it states how one could get promoted,
and the FAQ about mods
About rewarding you credits or not for a given report, i believe it's more of an
automated process : if the mod decides to delete or move or take action against
the reported object, then you are automatically rewarded with credits. On the
contrary, if he deems that the reported object should not be removed, you don't
get anything.
I'm not sure though if it's how it actually works
all i know is, if you don't make a good report don't expect it to work. IMO
do include the link for ripped artwork, or stolen artwork, post the link to the
duped thread, or report it with a reason like "deleted signature on
wallpaper, clearly a rip", that should be able to do it.
I know mine works...cause no matter how I spend...it doens't quite
decrease...
especially since I do make a lot of reasonably long posts and at the same time,
have my wallpapers whored as well as reporting...there are a lot of them around.
Reports will give you credits if it was useful. Bad reports will earn you
nothing. Repeated submission of bad reports can be deemed report spamming and
may lead to administrative action. So do follow the general rules for reporting
that DevilDude has enumerated.

Before you speculate on member promotions, I strongly suggest that you read Tama-Neko's article on Elite Members thoroughly.
