After struggling with some lag issues on w32 due to reports, I've come to the conclusion that we require a more efficient way of managing/deleting old reports on premium accounts.
What happened:
[spoil]With the new reports feature, my tribe forwards virtually all reports it get's to 40+ people in the tribe, and we just move our reports into an archive, without actually looking at the reports, as you can now see the intel on the village overview (super great feature, but a side effect for those tribes who make use of it).
What ended up happening is that I had 175,000 reports, totaling 5% of the servers total reports, and it was causing me severe lag issues on the village overview screens, and the reports folders.
With 4300 pages of reports, I wasn't about to go through 1 page at a time to delete reports.
A mod kindly helped me by deleting 150,000 reports that were over 1 month old, and I haven't had lag since. [/spoil]
So the idea is to allow the ability to mass delete reports by folder, by date. It's a simple solution (I believe simple is often the best), but you click the Mass Report Delete option while in a group, it'll ask you for a date in which you can delete all reports prior, then it deletes all reports prior to that date.
