Question for Chris regarding articles and comments [moved]
-
I am wondering if there are plans to finally roll out support for allowing article writers to moderate comments on their article. Of course I don't expect that all us authors will get ability to moderate - but if you are above certain threshold, you should be able to moderate. And not only this would allow good article writers to easily battle with trolls and content that's simply not appropriate on the page where there article is - it would be good motivation to keep writing.

Sorry - my bad. Can some admin move it there? As long Chris responds, I am happy. Let me know if you can't move it, we can then delete the topic and I can copy paste text for new thread there.
One of the site administrators will proberbly move it :) Or you could just post the identical post over there, and the moderators could delete this one :)

Well said my friend. I can't wait for some fancy brainwave detector to replace keyboard and mouse - all this will be much easier ;)
You obviously have forgotten the tale of the sorcerer's apprentice[^], and the old (allegedly Chinese) saying "Be careful what you wish for. You might receive it." If some data entry magic started typing my thoughts when I was editing code, the result would be, shall we say politely, uncompilable. ;P Cheers, Peter

Chasing through some of your univotes located this idiot. So I did this[^], it will probably have a better result than posting in the Lounge. A lot of us have a dipstik troll through the article and univote, CM will rectify the rep if he is asked.

How did you find out that? I think I might have a stalker on my tail too. Not the articles that is.

Because he was bitching about a univoter and having dealt with my own univoter[^] I checked his profile, looked at some of the comments on his articles and picked on a down vote, followed that to the voter profile, checked the number of messages and saw that he had posted 4 messages, 3 univotes so I looked at the messages and the content is rubbish to support the univote. I know it is convoluted but you can find some amazing information if you are willing to rat around for a while.
