Communities spamming, a great burden to moderators

1 44

The definition of spamming as i know is when you send unwanted information to a person or a group of person without there permission. Such information could be a link, video or written text which is against the privacy of such individual or group. If the asertion above is true, then i can say what is happening in the Communities in read.cash could be regarded as community spamming.

What do i mean?

The practice by most users in this platform of submitting a single article to almost all the Communities in read.cash is obnoxious to me. How can you tell us that a single article fit in almost all the Communities. I found this disturbing and unnecessary burden on moderators to see a notification for a submission in the community only to find out that the writer miss his or her way.

I have seen a simple post of just a thought been submitted to almost all the Communities in read.cash at once. What this means is that most of the community moderators would have a work to do for nothing. Imagine having to read through a submission to check what the information in it, and coming back to the community to reject same, that's a great burden to me and i think it is also to other moderators in read.cash.

Case study

The above is a submission list of a single article of a user. Now what happened is that each of these Communities moderators will get a notification for this submission, but how many Communities does the said article fit in. This means much of the moderators will have a field day rejecting not fit for the community articles. Isn't that a burden?

My submission to this case

  • First I don't know if read.cash has a plan to limit the number of Communities an article should be submitted, if not i suggest a maximum of 5 Communities for an article to be submitted to.

  • As a user chose your communities based on your interest and where you can always write and have your article approved.

  • Before you submit an article to a community check the community interest. This will help both you the writer and the moderator of such community.

A user mistakingly submitted an article to my community, on realising his error he did well to send me a message via the comment box on one my articles to tell me of the mistake and that i should ignored the article. This is professional, my question did he not need views and more comments on the article? You would do well to answer that.

As a moderator i got bored seeing articles that are irrelevant to my community taking up my notifications. Just today i have rejected two articles from same author.

I surely agree. Especially, someone submitting an article should first check the community's topic(s). 80-90% of what is submitted to my communities are out-of-topic. I can get an article about business strategy to my community about Japanese art & culture.

On the other hand, I also think community admins need better to define their communities. Many are too vague about their borderlines.

Then, of course, maximum five communities per article is enough.

Another thing I think is important, is that an author must be able to remove his/her article from a community, now only a moderator can do that. This is especially important, since anyone else than the author also can submit any article to any community of their choice, or moderators can just take it.

Finally, there must be created a way for an author to know in which communities his/her articles are. The list on top now shows only those to which the author him-/herself has submitted it.

I concur with your submission, you have a first hand experience about the issue. It's really boring seeing out of subject articles filled your notification. Most users don't care to look at the subject of the Communities before sending in their submission, and for the sake of getting more views and comments on articles they do this purposely. Read.cash need to set a limit on submitting article to communities since most don't have the time to check about the communities before submission

I fully support that suggestion. But there is so much read.cash need to fix; we cannot expect everything immediately. However, we can define the problems and suggest solutions, then we can only see what they will do and when. You are doing a great job here in defining problems with the system.

I agree with the facts that most of my moderating moments are rejecting articles that did not reach our minimum requirement. I use to just accept contents that are good and interesting in my opinion. I ignore a lot of things but since it becomes a bit messy, making me and my moderators seem to be a chasing a runaway train, we decided to be a little bit more specific and strict.

I also agree with the suggestion to limit numbers of communities the can submit and articles but to at least 10 communities maximum for a better wide range of viewers and balance moderating. If Incan sees a lot of rejecting done, I became more focus on reading.

You have had your part of the experience, but wouldn't it be too much with 10 Communities? Although that will mean less moderating, my suggestion is to have a system in read.cash that check Communities suitability of articles of a writer before submission could be done. A kind of bot that auto check contents Communities suitability

What if the article I wrote is all about the community I'm posting to (10 communities example). But yes, there such be a limit of communities to submit realted articles.

Have checked the new Communities rules? You cannot even have more than two Communities to submit your article to now. It was because of this issue discuss on this article that made read.cash to change Communities rules. Now only featured Communities can approve articles to get points, and you may not find any community that fits your article on the list. Just check it out on the community page and see where we are right now. Such articles written just about anything can nolonger find their place in the system

Read.cash has evaluate all the Communities and selected the ones that meet their requirements to be featured on the platform, so anyone writing article from now on must chose carefully where to submit same
