Yes, but I thought it would be nice to have a separate, not always displayed, list of reasons. Having five comments saying "rude" displayed all the time is not making the reading experience for everybody else any better. The poster seeing 5 notes "rude" associated to his post might help them adjust the tone.
- repolfx 8y agoSlashdot got it right - give a set of reasons you can pick when moderating. This not only makes sure every moderation gives a justification, but also sets expectations about what sort of comments are wanted or not wanted. Unfortunately Slashdot also undid themselves a bit by introducing "Overrated" and "Underrated" which adjusted the score without needing to provide a justification. I always wondered why they did that.
