From the annals of things not fixing themselves: moderation at Facebook, Twitter et al

Who says that?

Not a straw man. Here was the exchange.

@zoid

Frankly sometimes I’m surprised you don’t throw up your hands and say “screw it, you knuckleheads are on your own” and let the board completely melt down.

@PlainJain

Really? That what you see as the outcome? There’s a whole big internet out there that gets by just fine without nannying, you should get out more.

As I interpret it, the poster thought this forum would do just fine without moderation, and that furthermore this assessment was obvious. I opine that spam alone would inundate this board within a few days. And the OP demonstrates that the internet, like many conveniences, rests upon a foundation of mostly anonymous hard work.
