Agreed. But I suspect that places like HN reply too much on "shadow" moderation methods. Also: I think while it's understandable why you can't see who downvoted

Agreed. But I suspect that places like HN reply too much on "shadow" moderation methods. Also: I think while it's understandable why you can't see who downvoted/flagged a post, I also see this a weakness when the mechanism is abused - I think that there is no "skin in the game" to flag is an issue.
