you could only be allowed to submit X number of stories a day based on your Karma... So as you earn some respect you can do more. If you start with 1 you could only post 1 article a day which would make it less worth while to spammers.
Or add flagging on users and if it passes some threshold it has the admins review the account and take action if it really is spam.
Just two thoughts off the top of my head
- fiaz 19y agoSome users would get too powerful in the long run. These users would be the head of a long tail of submissions and could have disproportionate influence. Of course, this depends upon YC News having the problem of a large user base. Also, I could be totally wrong in this imagination simulation...
