RE: Leading By Example: A New Approach To Curation Guilds
I was thinking it would be good for each guild member to have a specific category for which they find the best content. Using the new page and the tags utility should offer a way to achieve this.
I'm with you. I have twice spent a couple of hours searching through available block chain tool attempting to find a way to display a list of most commented active posts, to no avail.
This would be very useful for finding out which posts are engaging the community the most. If course, the post would have to be checked to make sure it isn't merely spam, but genuine conversation.
This is why I included in the how you can help category offering technical ability. If someone was able to develop a simple tool that can extract an up-to-date list of the most commented active posts, it would be so easy to find which posts are inciting the most discussion.
As I am not developer, I am not sure how much of a task that would be, but it seems to me that for someone with the know-how it should not be all that difficult.
As for flags, I really think we should avoid using them at any time. If people are going to delegate their voting power to us, then they will predominantly be doing so with the belief that we will be using it to reward great content. So let's do that, and that alone.
If someone does try to game the guild, knowing that it is there for the good of the whole community, then I feel that person should be blacklisted and not eligible for future support from the guild. I don't think there should be second chances given either... But, this is obviously something we will talk about among ourselves.
I'm thinking if we give this post 24 hours to allow people the opportunity to find it, by that time we should know who is wanting to help and we can invite everyone to a channel on discord and get some real discussion about how we are going to proceed.
So you think there's a need for this kind of tool? 🤔 I'm collecting interesting ideas for devs to work on (so far it's just me)
Just saw @stellabelle 's comment, I guess there is!
I was searching for it because I wanted to start doing posts like, "10 most active discussions on Steemit for you to get involved in right now" for people that like discussions as much as I do.
I had no luck finding a way to filter post results by comments though. I was a little surprised. You can do so much with some of these tools, and arranging posts by comments sounds like a much more simple thing than all the complex analytical tools available.
I created an idea ticket for this at the Steem FOSSbot org, will do it if I can get to it, or any other dev is welcome to try! bump for @stellabelle
