Super crazy idea

What if 4chan (or popular image boards in general) had a report karma feature? Obviously this makes you think of sites like Reddit and it would make a non-anonymous distinction between users, but it would work entirely behind the scenes. Something like this:

1. User reports a post.
2. That post is deleted.
3. His report karma goes up by 1 for reporting a rule-breaking post.
4. From now on, that user's reports carry more weight. For example, the report queue could be ordered by the sum of the karma scores of all the users who reported it.

All this would be little more than a few digits in an SQL database, perhaps even invisible to the moderation staff themselves.

That sounds like an idea that could be abused, and is relatively unnecessary in the first place.

Have you seen the reports queue?
No? Then SHUT UP THEN.

You're an anus!

What about my an anus?

How could you abuse it?

By reporting rule-breaking posts?!

I know I'd like to have a system like this, as long as your karma remained invisible. Hopefully some of the benefits would include a reduced cooldown on reporting posts and an extended limit on how many reports you can submit before you get completely cut off.

Ok >>1-san, you post the code and I'll come back to you.
