Yes, I know, trolls etc. But such action turns any conversation into a bad joke. And anybody who trusts a moderator is a fool.

Find a better way.

    The fact that unmoderated places attract pedophiles sharing pictures, Spambots, and trolls.
    Go take a look at a random board on 8kun if you don’t believe me.
    It’s largely unmoderated, you’ll love it!!!

      There are other ways to control the conversation. Ones that do not require a moderator. For example, voting.

      So not necessary.

        I’m sure the police will agree when they find child abuse videos on the instance server’s HDD.

        “No don’t arrest me, the child porn was DOWNVOTED!!”

          Imagine a form of downvoting that led to removal from the server.

          Decree of the masses vs decree of authority . Still gets the job done.
