@TimothyBandors are you counting me / Matt as staff? fwiw we are volunteer mods and not employed or anything.
@TimothyBandors i wouldn't worry too much about the "purpose"/functionality of this Very Serious market. the #1 NO holder is an account that does literally nothing but bet NO on this market each day. the actual % is meaningless it's just a place for people to discuss updates.
@ProjectVictory I hate graphs that don't start at 0. What's even the point of having the graph if the scale is basically random ?
@TheAllMemeingEye I have my doubts on the high-quality criteria part but I'll definitely check it out.
@Qoiuoiuoiu *also bug report - when hovering over the dislike button but someone else already disliked it the tooltip reads "like"
@10thOfficial absolutely hate it. don't turn this place into a circlejerk like reddit and silence principled bold contrarian voices like myself or trolls (like myself). The election cycle was pretty non-toxic because if you hated something you could just ignore it or have to articulate why, instead of just mindlessly pressing a button, or piling on someone. Turned out to pretty useful since a lot of Trump commenters were not popular to say the least
@dlin007 I don't agree with the trolling or the Trump part, but I do agree I already have reddit for this, I'm not downvoting anyone here, if I disagree with something I take the 2 minutes to articulate why on a reply :/
@dlin007 I agree that positive reinforcement of popular takes is a terrible incentive. Reddit, X, Insta, etc are all toxic epistemic blackholes because of the incentive structure created by rewarding the popularity of a take.
Suggestion:
Not everyone is on the site 24/7 or even remembers the questions they created after a few months. I find myself asking people very often to resolve their markets. Instead of me going into comments and typing "@whoever This can resolve YES/NO, thank you!" please make this a one button press. Ask for Resolution or Request Resolution, where pressing it and selecting YES/NO automatically pings the creator and starts the 24 hour countdown. If they do not resolve, it goes into the mod queue for review/action. Thank you!
After thinking a little about it, am unsure it is a good idea.
The problem is that with this system people would not be able to answer if it should not be resolved for a reason or another, or see if a resolution was already asked for.
And if you make a system which allow for it, it starts to not be different from another comment system.
And we can already ping creators and moderators with their names.
I think the value added, would be to differentiate the reasons for the ping, but a more advanced notification system would be better for this.
Another value could come from some markets where there are a lot of comments, but then, a more advanced way to organize comments by kind could be better (something like : "resolution/criteria discussion", "humor", "information on subject"β¦)
But I think most of the value would come from a more advanced notification system, sorting comment by kind seems complex and not that useful.
