New idea for moderation.

[SwirlyMass]

How about instead of a moderator system which has numorous flaws including the fact the the moderator can be motivated by personal opinion or prejudice we enact a program similar to the ones i see all over the other message posting sites.

LET THE USERS DECIDE.

Its kinda like the reputation system on if a post has several (say more than 5) negative marks on it by other members then it will be hidden or deleted or brought to the attention of moderators who's job will be to take posts that have been voted on and if enough negative votes are recorded they will remove it or move it.

Say someone makes a post that isn't supposed to be in this particular forum, they could give it a negative mark and leave a comment so the mod knows where to move it instead of delete it or whatever.

That way everyone can have a say on what we want or dont want in our forum without being afraid of crossing a mod on a personal opinion. Which has happened to just about all of us at one point or another. That way we don't have fiasco's like with LIP which im sure is well known.

This seems to the fairest option to choose and im sure the existing reputation system could be altered to do this exact thing.

Please don't take this as an insult P4B, but what exactly do y'all look for when approving new members? I thought the reason new memberships had to be approved was because someone had to review the IP adress and stuff to make sure it wasn't a banned user. Granted, I'm pretty ignorant on this subject, but it just seems like there are a lot of people with multible accounts, or simply banned members finding their way back here.

Or do y'all just give some people a second chance with a new name?

I don't know, it just seems kind of pointless that members have to be reviewed before they are allowed to sign in.

If you don't mind me asking... how many accounts do the mods deny in an average a week?

I'd like to see a section with stories about bannings, and such - not a "discussion" as much as a history and chronicle of various insanity on this board. It might be amusing - especially the events surrounding certain people that are permanently not permitted to post, or those who left in anger.
