[Motd] Comment moderation | ANN.lu |
Posted on 10-Mar-2003 21:04 GMT by Christian Kemp | 52 comments View flat View list |
This is just a friendly reminder to all regulars of the comments section that profanity, personal insults and postings that otherwise violate ANN's guidelines can and will be deleted. Today, I implemented code to allow Christope and Teemu to moderate comments, which should ensure stricter enforcement of the posting guidelines and eliminate some of the noise.
I'm also working on a "trusted user" system, that would allow regular visitors to authenticate with me and have their name or nickname reserved. This will be optional. Since this is still work-in-prgress, comments on this subject are most welcome - especially on how the authentication could work.

Comment moderation : Comment 27 of 52 | ANN.lu |
Posted by rez on 11-Mar-2003 09:39 GMT | In reply to Comment 25 (Don Cox): first showing the ip is a security flow.
second it doesn't tell ANYTHING when used alone. think proxies. think ppp and think dhcp.
third if you have to make a couple between nick/IP, you will have to let the user OPT OUT from the database, because it's legal.
Logging IP is time loosing.
Logging IP and UserAgent and providing a cookie is far more better, but it doesn't prevent abuses.
Trusted ? what is the meaning of this word ? Does this mean that you'll have to co-opt the accounts ? Does it means some karma-moderation ? |
