Hire 10.000 moderators armed with assault rifles, flamethrowers and grenade launchers. Use them as motivators.

It should probably be enough just to let people know that all moderators are active members of Hells Angels...

Any online community/reputation system based on subjectivity will never work for everyone.
|

peer review and community feedback
positive and negative points
for user to grant points, requires rank X.
to get rank X requires positive/negative score that you decide.
if to much negative, your posts start to not be seen by others
Opt in require to see negative ppl
your community becomes what the community wants. If have moderators that grant positive points for behaviour you do not want, blame the moderator and your self for allowing the moderator to rise to rank X.
to allow lower ranks to contribute
all to grant negative points - which if enough negatives - helps highlight post to moderator.
and you get affected by choice of moderator -
- extra points if same as moderator
- possible negative if different to moderator
and your "trolls" can stay in, posting not knowing that only a few people will see their comments.
and if want to see such comments, you can opt in. Everyone wins.

Only let people join your community if the promise to take the part of village idiot.
It shows a little humbleness, a light heart, and, if all else fails, since they're considered village idiots, no one will take them seriously.

By that standard I qualify as one of our greatest brains.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."
If software development were a circus, we would all be the clowns.

Workers and drones needed in abundance compare to controllers.
Because of overtaxed familial resources and typical lack of education that ensues, the condition is typically passed from generation to generation.
Localized into breeding colonies of what are often referred to as small towns full of good people.

What if we treat this as a huge multi-armed bandit optimization problem.
Have the server serve messages (and replies to them, to prevent out-of-context replies) that it thinks could be good for the objective, plus some exploration of course, balancing those goals is what multi-armed bandit is all about.
Optimize for .. I don't know exactly. Maybe do some sentiment analysis on the message and replies to it.
Hellban people who consistently show bad payout.

People will perform to the level of expectation in most cases or refuse to participate altogether.
That said, if your community has a drawing card that sufficiently draws in people and they wish to participate in it, you set a level of expectation and then enforce that by providing a means to throttle participation should a member fail to behave in accordance to the stated expectation. When they have once again proven they can interact without being a disturbance then they can be restored to the a greater participation in the community.
Now, as I respond to your question I can think of two communities that I participate in that follow this model almost to the letter and have been long standing. And yes, the staff and ownership put in a lot of effort to maintain order and keep things running smooth, but at the same time what happens in both situations is that the users base has come to the point of monitoring themselves as well because they realize what a good thing they have in comparison to other communities on the web and lets someone come in with a wild apple cart and they are going to start an intervention immediately on that individuals behalf to try and bring them into compliance with the community standard in advance of a encounter with a moderator.
Yes, now and again a temper flairs and someone storms off never to be heard from again but it is rare and these communities are large and vibrant. Been around for years and will be around for years to come because they have their standards and they enforce their rules. It's about expectations and what faith you put in people to be.

And yet, CodeProject is frequently toxic - review the behavior in the lounge. Toxic behavior is tolerated because of the 'rep' points the posters have.

I used to moderate a gaming board when I was working nights, you'll never be able to completely prevent toxicity online, you can only remove, warn and then ultimately ban repeat offenders.
It's the whole feeling of anonymity that people get online which they think protects them from repercussions (ultimately they're right, there's a limit to what you can do). Continual trolls (the ones who then re-register) are eventually removed via IP bans only...

Because that doesn't work for certain parts of the world.
I for instance don't have a fixed IP (at home).
Yes it stays the same for a long time but a simple router reboot (can) change my ip so...

True, but it's not a reason not to implement it anyway. It could - if nothing else - kepp SOME of the offenders out...

And every student in the campus of a single a-hole, every coworker of a single a-hole, every user of the same library of a single a-hole... While that one can simply reboot the router and keep on trolling.
