Change Needed for Commenting That Favors the ‘Verified’

my notes ( ? )

NYTimes' “verified commenters.”... few hundred people whose comments are posted without moderation can end up dominating the reader commenting system... causes quite understandable resentment among thousands of others...Because they go up first, their comments are almost guaranteed to get the most exposure, “and hence rise to the top and be seen by other readers.”... several changes are in the works ... a more automated system ... No longer will human beings need to moderate every comment that is not “verified.” ... “If you have a history of a lot of good comments that have been approved,” your comments will go through immediately. “We’ve already built the algorithm.” up to twice the number of articles ... will be open for comments. - Change Needed for Commenting That Favors the ‘Verified’ - NYTimes.com
