/prob/ ʭ A Modest Proposal ʭ

Lets face it, GJS/JSB-1 was a failure. It attempted to enact a system of vetting respectable /prog/ posters, but all it accomplished was enabling trolls to hijack the protocol and create 'authenticated' shitposts[1]. The fatal flaw in the GJS Protocol, is the fact that the users of the protocol remain anonymous. What the GJS creator failed to realize is that there is a good side and a bad side to each and every poster here on /prog/. Our greatest programmers are also our greatest trolls. What I propose is a simple. First, we must all begin to use tripcodes. Then we must filter out all anonymous posts. If you see a post you don't like, filter out his tripcode. If a poster has a reputation to uphold, he won't sully his name with shitposts. If he wishes to shitpost anonymously, he will be filtered out.

I want you're honest opinion /prog/, what do you think of this proposal?

>>40
why not simply let moderators hide threads/replies and be done with it?
Maybe because they don't give a shit?
>>32-san's idea is pretty good, especially if ``registration'' is not too much invasive. (i.e. optional email address)
We also need IDs again.
