Post Body

I have a script that uses the Subreddit Moderation Stream to notify me when there is a report on a submission or comment.

My code is:

for item in r.subreddit("SUB1 SUB2 SUB3").mod.stream.reports(skip_existing=True):
    if isinstance(item, praw.models.reddit.submission.Submission):
        title = item.title
    else:
        title = item.submission.title
    sendMsg("Report: "   title, "http://reddit.com"   item.permalink)

Except occasionally I will receive a notification about a report that was made a year prior. If skip_existing=True, why would I be notified of it. Am I doing something wrong?
