As the people in your case study suggested, the idea of a YouTube-style voting system is a good one - it would help the sensible lurkers to moderate the idiot's behavior without having to enter the debate themselves. How to reconcile this with freedom of speech? How about you just make the idiot's font smaller, in proportion to how many people think they're an idiot.

Hi everyone,



Thank you all for being interested in the Noisy Idiots debate - if you're new and would like to read my paper that kicked it all off - have added it again here.



Your recent really helpful comments have given me a lot to think about - thank you. In particular, am working on tightening up the definition of what I mean by Noisy Idiot and thinking about the concept of the neighborhood we are collaborating.

I'm also a graduate of ITP and was deeply influenced by Red Burns. Glad you're using ITP to do some online community. I believe their main focus is physical computing, but they do have Clay Shirky, who I think is a genius.



I guess the question is what kind of community environment are you in? how big? web-based? game-based? What is the age of your audience? What's the business model? The answers determine whether social pressure shuts up a noisy idiot, or a staff member has to use… Continue

Am going to use this tag to continue the twitter discussion post PDF - please join in!

I want to be a noisy idiot! Or maybe I already am?

Hi



Thank you for joining this group and being interested in the Noisy Idiot Dilemma. I am really glad you are participating.



I'm Catherine White, a graduate student at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program. My research is primarily focused on how we work together in groups, particularly how to make collaboration more fruitful, and efficient (and less painful - because it sometimes is). Specifically, I am looking at groups we are part of online.
