Corin: Would you like a bit more about extending
the community responsibiliy?
JillMurphy: Yes please Corin.
Necropolis: Yes says Sue
MykReeve: Yes, how is that likely to affect us
as individual users?
TheKnight: Yes please Corin then we have some other
questions
Corin: OK. This is the way I see things - briefly.
Corin: Responsibility is the one thing that the
expansion of the net is going to have to accept if it is going to
work. Porn, violence, etc all has its place but by request rather
than by putting it in the way of our kids etc . Look at how China
are trying to suffocate free speech, the utopia for us is that we
can let control drift into those who accept the responsibility
TheKnight: Er, can we maybe make it more specific
to dooyoo? :)
Corin: getting there!
JillMurphy: You prefer to make that community responsibility?
Corin: We all suffer for the abuse - so how to
stop it? Dooyoo police? or by democracy ... Nuff said
TheKnight: How will you guard this against abuse,
before we move on?
Corin: In the short term?
JillMurphy: In any term.
Corin: Difficult, because the idea that we are
open to anyone to leave his/her pennysworth means that we cannot
draw too many lines .
Andy_ArT_Trigg: what about organised help from
dedicated members?
Corin: Andy - that is the way we are looking to
promote
MykReeve: so people who are good at writing opinions
in specific topics will be given more responsibility
Corin: Yes, we will be releasing tools to promote
trusted members / gurus to shape the community. There will be all
sorts of community functions that these people will control - forums
for example or having rating tools that will have a proportionally
massive effect on certain opinions when used
ScotGirl: corin - would that not come across as
elitist rather than democratic?
Corin: Scotgirl - this is where responsibility
comes in and that lies with the people who have proven themselves
to be objective and fair.
