I get that people want bigger handled report numbers, but this simply isn't worth our time to look into.

The first type is closed reports due to insufficient evidence - the only reports that can speak of your capability of identifying illegal modifications.
The second type is those that are closed due to the player has already been punished - doesn't speak of your capability of identifying illegal modifications, as you are right that the reported player breaks the rules, but it is closed because someone else's report has been handled before yours.
I think a clear distinction between closed and denied reports would make it easier for us to see what happened and would reduce confusion. I don't care if my report is accepted or closed as a duplicate, but I don't like getting a report denied. The moderator is telling me that I made a mistake and wrongfully reported someone with invalid evidence. Not the end of the world of course, but in that case I usually want to argue my case and possibly search for more evidence, so the distinction between closed and denied reports is important.
This is a really small feature, that also can be done by someone that is not a game developer. I see it more as a design decision than the decision if it's worth spending the time on it. At least until andyschofie left it probably would've been a matter of a few hours at most.

All Networks Don't close reports if...

My favourite solution would be a fourth state for reports: open, accepted, closed, denied, as I also explained in the thread I linked, So it would not change the number of handled reports, but it would make it easier for us to understand why a report is closed. I also mentioned that as a response to "considering we just lost our web developer", the idea didn't come up after he left.

Oooooooorrrr.. just don't report people and deal with the fact not everything is controlable lol
The only reason I replied on this thread is that it makes no sense to judge the closed reports of people who apply for the helper rank, as there are two types of closed reports.
The first type is closed reports due to insufficient evidence - the only reports that can speak of your capability of identifying illegal modifications.
The second type is those that are closed due to the player has already been punished - doesn't speak of your capability of identifying illegal modifications, as you are right that the reported player breaks the rules, but it is closed because someone else's report has been handled before yours.
I would like to add that I absolutely disagree with such reports being handled, but I also disagree that it isn't worth your time. This would help out finding good helpers for the server.
Believe me, we're already very aware of the people in our community who are potential helper material. Report numbers pale in comparison to quality of character when it comes to who we choose for helper.
Helpern'ts and tryhards, This is the reason why reporting ''cheaters'' is not worth it. It takes too much time and in the end he get's banned by our lovely anti-''cheat'' So let Sentinel do his work, and leave it. That one red thing in your helpern't list won't ruin your application. Just explain it if they even bother asking why you have it. Also it's indeed low priority. People like me don't care about this kind of things. Give me some sweet updates, instead of a helpern't update. Why did you read all of this? Bye
Sometimes players just don't get banned by sentinel. Even if you're just mildly tryharding, it can be upsetting to play against cheaters, especially if you run into the same player multiple times. I have seen a few players in the last month that weren't sentinel'd after a day, my last 6 reports for hacking were acepted. While it isn't a critical feature, it's a simple thing that people have been requesting for a long time. I can assure you I am not asking for this because I think it will make them want me as a helper.

The problem is. When a cheater kills you you'll be mad. When reporting him (Takes so long) The rage will be long gone. And he is probally alting anyways. Just let sentinel do it. You can take your time and report them, but don't be upset if it get's closed because of Sentinel doing it earlier.
I usually report players the next day or at least a few hours later. And I am never upset when a report is closed as a duplicate, only when it's denied which implies that I made a mistake.
If my report is denied, either I or the moderator made a mistake. In that case I want to look into it. That's why to me the distinction between closed and denied reports matters.
and thats cool, but then my reports page looks like I'm stupid or something xd, (for example if you want to appeal at some point, your reports are all closed)
Thats not the solution at all, the reports page its there for you to report someone its being annoying, (also you need it if you want to apply)

It's a solution, there's no "the" here. When someone is being annoying use /ignore add <name>, it really isn't that hard. But all of you people report people for saying the word "shit" in chat which I find disgusting.
You should use arguments for a change, otherwise it won't ever get implemented.
