One suggestion is to reduce the influx of new users. Maybe keep new registrations closed except for a few days every month or so. It allows older users time to help the new users adjust to the community, and prevents opportunistic/anonymous-trollish comments. Just an idea.
- mikeg8 13y agoI kind of like this idea although a lot of people will probably disagree with it. My variation: instead of restricting new users from signing up, maybe just restrict their ability to comment. An account must be x months old to contribute to the discussion.
- karlshea 13y agoThe only reason I would disagree with that idea is that it would prevent the author from a linked site from joining the discussion if they didn't already have an account.
- slacka 13y agoThis would strike a good balance between an open and invite only community. I also think this would help with rising number of the negative comments made on new accounts.
