I have to second number two. Frame the approach as seeking to learn or understand something, always. You're not seeking to "do" something, because you'll end up "succeeding" or "failing". But whether

There's no function similar to "likes", "upvotes", or "reddit gold" that incentivizes good faith communication either. The features are too ambiguous. One community on reddit https://www.reddit.
