Oh, dear god, no - have you ever used Reddit? This is what happens when you outsource moderation to the sorts of users who enjoy moderating other people.
- nvrspyx 7y agoHave you ever used Facebook? It’s much worse and this is specifically in reference to media that are against Facebook’s guidelines (e.g. nudity, gore, etc), not all content as a whole. Users doing some moderating in this context would simply be presenting flagged media randomly to users and asking if it breaks the guidelines. Very completely different things. Subreddits would be the equivalent of Facebook Pages and they already have moderation tools for those that run the page.
- saagarjha 7y agoReddit is a bit different than what was suggested here, since moderators are not a rotating position there and this encourages power trips.
- baroffoos 7y agoStack overflow has the users do the moderation and it works well, maybe not perfect but its not bad.
