This seems like a feature that would be a good fit for Hubski in it's current state. But if Hubski is to keep growing at a pretty rapid rate it seems like both this and the mute/ignore features would be more and more useless. If I have to continually go through and mute/ignore/rate-poorly each user that posts low effort crap then it's going to be a lot of work and at some point it just won't be worth the effort.

I admire the 'ideal' that everybody can make Hubski their own, but I also enjoy a good classic 'wild west' forum where everybody sees the same thing. I think that's partly what 'global' is right now.

I guess what I'm trying to insinuate is that I wish there were some way to just inherently give better ranking to thoughtful, high-effort content, and discourage low-effort stuff. I don't know.
