Comment Nonsense (Score 1) 396
You must be new around here. Slashdot was much more interesting and readable before the moderation system was put in place. Moderation has attracted all kinds of shady people who thrive on the attention they get from moderators.
Here is my suggestion to Rob: every post should start at the same default score, and initially ONLY ALLOW POSTS TO BE MODERATED UP. Dump the -1 rating. At the same time dramatically increase the number of moderators. Everyone on Slashdot should get a voice in moderation! THIS IS WHAT FREE SPEECH IS ALL ABOUT.
