Ok yes, plagiarism is one are where you'll be downvoted. In the case of VYB, downvotes won't have power, but instead I believe it can use the mute function on either the article or author.

We'd do it the way I downvote.

So in POB, I justify the downvote, notify the user, and remove rewards. That's for the article. It would act as a warning for the user.

If the user repeats abuse behaviors multiple times (normally 3), the I recommend muting the author.

In the case of VYB:

  1. DV the article to tag it
  2. Notify the author and justify the DV
  3. Mute the article (not the author)
  4. Record the mute action for future reporting to the community.
  5. Multiple abuses by the author would lead to longer periods of muting.

The author always has the option to appeal the mute.

so the article will be mutes instead of the author, in this case only the admin can mute, what if other actions that is against the rule of the community occur?

do i have to report the autor to the core team?

how do the core team handle this when we have more community members?

Eventually, there will be a team of moderators that handle the muting. The admin wants to be notified of it, but doesn't necessarily want to be involved.

The moderation team will have the ability to mute, but not the ability to mute blindly. There needs to be a justification and confirmation for it. Mutes can last indefinitely, but that's not the intent of VYB initially.

  • Article gets muted first, author is warned
  • Additional issues would get the author temporarily muted (about a week or less)
  • Repeated offenses would get the author muted longer.

It would help and is encouraged. Moderation is always easier when the community supports and checks for suspect articles.

how do the core team handle this when we have more community members?

Shift work. Moderators would work in periods of time and stagger their presence during the week. I'd ask the moderators to approve a working schedule and provide them compensation in the form of delegated POB. There are other methods I will seek to use to raise efficiency, but I can't discuss those.

Mute function might be too harsh as if user on the author.
I understand the reason there is no downvote and it's to promote freedom to the new community.

An author mute function is harsh and a textbook example of censorship. The POB group doesn't do it blindly. The VYB group won't either, but will also make mutes more transparent. We will be periodically announcing the mute list as part of tribe communications. There will be warnings before it happens to an author and there will be announcements to the community.
