    Probably been said a squillion times but I think a Q&A (say, a Facebook Live with real-time comments on) might be an idea.

    Someone soft-moderating is a requirement though (there's a few Youtubers I follow and sometimes join in on the Live Chat and, well, it is something that's necessary at times - but - most people are decent).

    Read The Transcrited its a bit all over, but the key I liked im glad that you're going to look into the persistence of moderation.

    because at the moment its become a joke, it's getting to the point I and many others i speak to no longer want to support this network.

    and that's 4/5 of ur regular posters who are helping the community every day.

    If you drop the team a report with the reasons for wanting it deleted they can take a look. Usually there needs to be a compelling reason to have it remain deleted (like something is wrong with the deal etc).

    Thank you for another interesting podcast. Always good to hear what goes on behind the scenes and I do think you’ve all done a good job of creating a community here.

    I can fully understand the pitfalls of moderation, especially in the current social media climate, but I think part of it should really be trying to encourage people to think about self moderating their content and definitely more communication, perhaps actually commenting on a thread where more than one comment is removed as a way to explain what has happened. I can hold my hand up and say I’ve been caught in the trap of getting a bit too involved in one or two arguments but I’m trying to self moderate more and I do tend to agree if my content is removed after reflecting.
