Recommend adding a link “this is spam” to each entry in INCIT. In a given round, a player can either vote for a winner or cite spam, not both.

You don’t know which entry is each person’s so the most it could be abused is reporting spam. And that could be bannable. Also, stop trying to improve incit or the Hall of **** will be no more.

Should we rename the “Hall of ****” to “Hall of INCIT submissions that recieved the most votes in a round and thus won their owner a chocolate scoop”?

I agree with Chawin, even if you review it regularly that idea’s still an easy way for people to cheat subtly. If used sparingly and only when crucial, you could slip through the radar, especially if you made good edits with it also.

And if you’ve played INCIT often, you can generally get a read on who a person is by how they write things. So, yeah it’s not entirely anonymous either.

That being said, INCIT should be improved. The hall of **** will always be ****ty. We just want higher quality ****.

More fibre needed, imo.

Too open for exploits, and will put a much unnecessary stream to the moderators.

Also this will solve nothing. Player police never solves stuff from my experience.

Says someone who has never been a forumwarz moderator so has no idea how the mods react, as we an see, most players get banned when posts are reported.

People who abuse the report spam tool also get banned (see FalconFour).

But 10 people going hellbent on reporting every INCIT win will cause a lot of trouble for all the mods.

Don’t post if you don’t have any good points and you only want to mindlessly flame.

There’s actually a lot of reports that we look at, review, and then decide that it’s not really ban worthy. Rough estimate, maybe about 70-80% of reports are deemed ‘less than banworthy’. Some of those, we may still send a TM with a ‘suggestion’, others we just close & save after review.

Turns out this is exactly the model Slashdot (http://slashdot.org) uses to self-police its article discussion system. They’ve also implemented a second layer of moderation (meta-moderation) to get random sampling review of upvoting/downvoting by other people who have self-policed.

I’m not suggesting the second layer of stuff, here. It’s pointless to add complexity without testing simple.
