The same goes for democracy and politics, how to prevent bad actors from gaming the system and acquire illegitimate power.
When moderating a 5000 person topic focused community I used a ruleset which was easy to understand. Along the way I tweaked the ruleset to defend against bad actors using the rules against me.
- blippage 4y agoYeah, I think a karma-based system is about the right way to go. One system I thought of was that the karma propagated outwards, as it were. So I award A with +1 karma because I like their content and trust them. If A awards B with +1 karma then the karma trickles up to me and I'm more likely to read B. Not sure how my system could be turned into reality, though.
