Why doesn't someone just make a social media where everyone is a moderator? (self.askbeehaw)

So basically classic Reddit. Let the votes matter. Let people decide a down vote threshold (hide posts for me below x number.)

And let all of us who want to see the show put that threshold to negative Infinity and let's have some gosh dang fun!?

I'm kind of thinking it's only a matter of time until someone incorporates the mod log and just reintegrates those messages into a continuous comment hierarchy. Kind of like how pie fed incorporates multiple instances into a single comment tree.

Why the extra steps? Comments are never really deleted you can go look them up. Seems pedantically silly.

This is a good example. Most spaces, (virtually all spaces) will consider that a form of vandalism. A similar but even more extreme example is a spam bot posting thousands of links to scam websites.

Some might be fine with that, and that's up to each community. Some security honeypot-style communities probably benefit from allowing spam, for example.
