In that comment you said
> I want to turn this system into something that's open to all users who want to take time to review stories. We'll make it a form of community service that will be a new way to earn karma. However, it's still an open question how to pull this off without simply recreating the current upvoting system under another guise.
Have you guys looked or thought about this any more since then? I'd love to see such a community service become reality.
- dang 7y agoStill thinking about it, still want to, haven't worked on it yet, will at some point. Edit: if anyone wants to be a story reviewer, find 3 submissions that got posted to HN but didn't get attention, which you think the community might like and which gratify intellectual curiosity (i.e. aren't interesting just for sensational reasons). Oh, and which you're not personally connected to. Then email them to us at hn@ycombinator.com. For examples, you can see a partial list of stories that were picked in this way here: https://news.ycombinator.com/invited https://news.ycombinator.com/invited. Those are ones where we invited a repost because the original submission was too old to re-up, but the criteria are the same. We'll publish the full list at some point.
