	Moderation system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Moderator powers are assigned for short times based on various factors including karma, and a meta-moderation system (whereby users moderate the moderators) to ensure moderators are doing a good job.
		On Internet websites which invite users to post comments, a moderation system is the method the webmaster chooses to sort contributions which are irrelevant, obscene, illegal or insulting from contributions which are useful or informative.
		The definitive example of a user moderation system is Slashdot.

	Slashdot FAQ - Comments and Moderation
		However, to the extent that there may be problems with unfair moderation, we have come up with a system of meta-moderation (moderating the moderation) to address this.
		The moderation system is designed to sort the gems and the crap from the steady stream of information that flows through the pipe.
		Moderators' primary complaint is that they are often crippled by the tiny amount of points they have, and the overwhelming amount of comments that need moderation.

	Slashdot - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Since trolling is prevalent, a moderation system was implemented, whereby every comment posted (including those posted anonymously) can be "moderated" up or down by chosen moderators, changing the post's score likewise.
		Moderation points added to a comment are also added to a user's karma score.
		A poll on Slashdot suggests that only approximately half of all Slashdot visitors use a Microsoft Windows operating system, a third use some form of Linux, and more than ten percent use MacOS X. Polls on Slashdot, like most on the Internet, are notoriously unreliable.

	Meta-moderation system - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
		A meta-moderation system is an arrangement used on some Internet websites (such as internet forums, web logs and news websites) which invite user comments.
		Users can enter "meta moderation mode" (or something similar) and will be shown a post that was moderated in its original form, and the nature of the moderation.
		This information is used to improve the quality of moderation on the web site.

	GNE Project Files/Proposed GNU Moderation System - Wikipedia
		In a vote to dismiss a member, only those who were members prior to that members entry should be allowed to vote, this will prevent possible abuse of the system if a subversive group tried to gain a majority in the review body.
		Clearly an attempt to abuse the system (e.g binary bomb or the like)
		Nupedia could become a "proxy group" with Nupedia accepting articles as they currently do and then passing them into the system.

	Moderation: Ain't What it Should Be
		I think that there either needs to be a meta-moderation system or some way to see which users moderated a comment, so that the public can see and notice patterns.
		The best solution I can think of offhand is to give the power of moderation to a trusted few, whether it be the editors, or whether it be people who have proven they have been fair in their moderation with this system.
		BUT, back to my statement, proprietary systems are bad, using them does not mean you are doing a bad thing, but using them means bad things could happen to you in the future....

	Suggestions regarding the Slashdot moderation system Már Örlygsson (September 13. 1999)
		I have the gut-feeling that this whole moderation and meta-moderation system is getting a bit too complicated and could do with a little overall re-design.
		What I like in how the Meta-Moderation system is designed:
		Slashdot has this neato moderation system for it's discussion board.

	Life With Alacrity: March 2005 Archives
		To explain it in different terms, if you have a system that depends on sharing some commons and there are no process or trust metrics, a group as small as 16 may find themselves not cooperating very effectively.
		As we introduce user content systems into games, filtering it will become the next challenge.
		You see this in moderated discussion groups, where the guardians of the common good have to spend too much time moderating, given the number of people that wish to participate.

	meta-moderation? drupal.org
		If the flamers and trolls are themselves abusing the moderation system, is there a way to stop that?
		comment.module defines several permissions (comment_perm()), among them "moderate comments" (the others are "access comments", "post comments", "administer comments", "post comments without approval", "administer moderation").
		This lets people assign a score to a comment on how good they think the comment is or how visible they think it should be.

	bboard revision status? esp. geospatial abstraction
		Also, regarding moderation, I'd like to see hooks in the bboard system for "meta-moderation" features like Slashdot.org has, i.e., messages are assigned a score by moderators, and the users can set their "threshold" for what level of messages they want to read.
		The cool thing is you can then implement a "meta-moderation" system, where people from the community moderate random messages, and then other people score the moderators, thus creating a distributed moderation scheme which can be tuned.
		We don't have to implement the algorithms to start with, but we should have the capability to attach a moderation score or list of scores and moderators to each message, so we have the option of adding different moderation algorithms later without having to tear up the whole bboard again.

	Sites I check, and why
		There is a meta-moderation system where you (anyone) can moderate what actions the moderators have taken.
		It has a rather unique messageboard system where users moderate other user's commentsso there is an incentive to not write complete tripe.
		No, the system is not perfect but it works pretty well.

	Shirky: Social Software and the Politics of Groups
		The second is meta-moderation, a way of checking those moderators for bias, as a solution to the "Who will watch the watchers?" problem.
		The first is moderation, a way of convening a jury pool of members in good standing, whose function is to rank those posts by quality.
		Any system that supports groups addresses this tension by enacting a simple constitution -- a set of rules governing the relationship between individuals and the group.

	Slashdot FAQ - Accounts
		The moderation system has a variety of limits in it as well, but these bans are temporary and exist more as a rate limiter to make sure that people stay on topic, and everyone gets a chance to speak.
		In most cases, these folks are caught by moderation, and they eventually get karma that is low enough to make it obvious that they are impostors.
		Over the last few years, numerous restrictions have been placed on accounts to make this difficult (for example the system won't let you create an account named 'CmdrTaco' because there already is one listed) but that doesn't prevent any of the hundreds of existing ninnies from doing what ninnies do.

	Meatball Wiki: MetaModeration
		However, the entire population is trusted to metamoderate instead of a small group of moderators, and it requires a certain threshold of metamoderations to apply the punishment for unfair moderation, so a few unfair mods simply don't count.
		It's a reasonable system, though half-empty simply opened up a simple up/down moderation to every logged in user, with no +5/-2 cap, and it works just fine.
		I am not convinced that the possibility of recursion makes MetaModeration inadequate.

	Xin's House
		Through a meta-moderation system, users can create a posting, make comments on others’ postings and control the quality of postings, which is also the most salient difference of OSOSS from mailing lists or Usenet newsgroups.
		Under this situation, somebody put forward the idea of “reputation systems” that “seek to establish the shadow of the future to each transaction by creating an expectation that other people will look back on it” (see the paper “Reputation Systems”).
		The favorable Internet-based feedback systems are to “get buyers to provide feedback with reasonably high frequency and to provide it honestly” (see the paper “Trust Among Strangers in Internet Transactions: Empirical Analysis of eBay’s Reputation System”).

	goats: Ring of Fire forum: Meta-moderation
		An inexperienced onlooker would see those "undeserved" moderations and thus be unenlightened about the true intent of the system.
		When i've seen a moderation on an old post, i suspect that the moderation may be far newer than the original comment; i think perhaps the moderator dug deep into old threads to reward or slap a particular member.
		And the circle of thread life is now complete: back on topic (meta modding), used a different word prefixed with "meta", cursed a couple of times, sneaked in a South Park reference, and discussed a poster's personal hobbies.

	tumanov.com /// New term : griefers
		Either that or a rock solid moderation and perhaps even a meta-moderation system that prevents the griefers from being able to do the things they do.
		This may or may not be very successful in a paid subscription system because revenue will be slipping away with every griefer chased away from the system.
		Of course, when you're talking about player behavior in games, which is where the definition comes from, there's really no moderation you can do to censor this type of people in the short-term.

	Slashdot FAQ - Meta-moderation
		If the same comment was moderated more than once, it may appear several times to a meta-moderator in order to rate the different moderations that have been applied to it.
		Depending on some randomness, the moderator's karma and a couple of other factors, a particular instance of meta-moderation may or may not change a moderator's karma score.
		In order to be a metamoderator, your account has to be one of the oldest 92.5% of accounts on the system.

	Dylan Greene dot com - Welcome Slashdot readers...
		There is a bigger problem than between student/instructor in the academic system, and your site should engineer a way to expose that kind of stuff while avoiding the harms of creating a red-herring for the Universities to attack.
		Keep it to the instant removal system, but don't have a professor opt-out.
		I think it would be good to moderate students who are angry about their grade.

	Meatball Wiki: AuthorshipCredit
		It seems to me the current system is fairly anonymous; at the creation of a page perhaps the content is signed by an author, but after awhile, as the page gets refactored, it becomes impractical to note who contributed exactly what, and so personal attributions are erased.
		The [WebSeitz website] incorporates something like this, but there are perhaps advantages to having the data on two separate systems, especially given how easy it is to cut and paste from one browser into another.
		A Wiki is an instance of a developing system.

	TPMCafe Basic Guidelines on Comment Ratings
		Without a system of meta-moderation, to moderate the moderators, I fear the rating of comments is a system doomed to fail.
		totally agree with naugiedoggie on the need for a meta-moderation system, all based of Josh and his inner circles rating preferences, the stronger the better IMO.
		If the point of the moderation system is to make discussions topical, useful and free of invective, then offtopic remarks should be rated out.

		My tendency is to choose among such posts (having determined they meet the criteria for moderation) irritate me the most, which is generally the set I disagree with the most.

		Self-correcting - the system has a built-in mechanism for weeding out the goofies without a lot of manual intervention

		please correct me if so) that even though there seems to be some sort of karma voting system implemented here, it doesn't seem as robust and as immune to abuse as slashdot's.
		ModComments doesn't enable to hide comments (yet?) on a treshold basis so it's only usable for some sort of karma system for comments...
		And it doesn't seem that there is very much you can do with the karma votes as well since (refer to above) there appears to be no way to set threshold.

		EDIT/UPDATE: I realize that these problems could be minimized given a better moderation system.
		Alot of work is also going into revising the movement system to cut out alot of bugs we had in the server tests, so we hope to resolve those as well.
		I do not have the energy to deal with people abusing the system, and if people think it is fun to take advantage of AveneR's and my work, then we are not interested in continuing this project to this community's advantage.

		And, to police _that_ system, they created a meta-moderation system, to solve the 'Who will guard the guardians' problem.
		To take the most famous example, the Slashdot moderation system puts the ability to rate comments into the hands of the users themselves.
		And instead of assuming that all users are alike, the Slashdot designers created a karma system, to allow them to discriminate in favor of users likely to rate comments in ways that would benefit the community.

		The motivation was to add a simple way of offering your opinion on an entry without requiring a comment when you don't have one.
