It seems volunteer moderation may not scale well at a company this size.
When I consider that the logs of these intranet conversations are a legal liability, and moderation actions may cause legal challenges as well, it strikes me that perhaps google should hire professional moderators that report up through their legal division.
I imagine a lot of employees might balk at this, but having developers losing sleep over how to respond to intranet drama may be considered undesirable as well.
- Zyst 8y agoDoesn't moot still work at Google? If someone can setup a scale volunteer basis moderation system, that's probably the guy you want.
- jasonszhao 8y ago"The company plans to leave much of that interpretation up to its volunteer army of intranet moderators, who have day jobs at Google but in their spare time oversee discussion groups..." It sounds like these employees are not also paid for their extra time spent on moderating.
