Comment Re:Time to revisit the moderation system here. (Score 2) 726

My vote: keep the moderation system, but expand it to a high score of 100, and a low score of -100. Let users set the default value penalty/bonus they want to apply to ACs, and what bonus/penalty they want to apply to UIDs with 6 digits or less (which should help weed out all the astroturfers).

Also, it would be nice to make EVERYONE a meta-moderator: allow users to see all the moderation on a comment, and if they notice a pattern (such as liberal or conservative shills downvoting things they don't like), allow users to decide to ignore moderation from specific users.

That should allow trolls to be downvoted to oblivion, while helping to nullify the effects of censorship from right/left wing idiots downvoting things they don't agree with.
