I've brought this up before, and I think it's high time to implement a system that is at least similar to what voat.co had. Here's how it worked on voat.co...

- If a user had less than 100 CCP, they couldn't downvoat comments or posts.

- If a user had less than 10 CCP, they couldn't make posts of their own.

- If a user had negative CCP they were restricted to a certain number of comments per day/week depending on how deeply negative their CCP was. The more negative their CCP, the less often they were allowed to comment. Remember @Edgelord666? His CCP was in the negative thousands, and he was only allowed to comment something like once a week.

- All users, regardless of their CCP/SCP totals, were also blocked from posting more than 3 times to any given sub in a 60 minute period.

My suggestion is to implement this system, or one similar to it, but have it also apply to negative SCP (something voat 1.0 did not do). Here's why...

On voat.co, a new user could pretend to be a non-spamfag for just long enough to generate enough positive CCP (more than 10), enabling them to make posts. Then they would go dark for two weeks, after which point, none of their original comments could be voated on (either up or down), thus securing their ability to post with that account, forever. They would then use their post-ready account to spam the site, and, so long as they never overtly violated TOS, no one could stop them from spamming lolis or animal gore or whatever their "legal", non-TOS violating spam was, no matter how deeply negative their SCP got.

So, @system, I am suggesting the implementation of the voat.co system with one addition: negative SCP restricts users from being able to make posts. Maybe between -1 and -10 they can post once per day, and anything lower than -10 restricts them to once per week. I don't know how you would prefer to break it down, but there needs to be some kind of SCP based restriction in place to prevent spamming. It is not possible for you to moderate the site 24/7 all on your own. A system like this will give voat.xyz an immune system similar to what voat.co had, which enabled any user with over 100 CCP to participate in protecting the site from spam, and in some cases illegal, content. CCP and SCP can and should function as more than just an internet virtue meter. These point totals can and should be used to protect the site from malicious activity.
