I think there are a bunch of issues with the reddit codebase. It was never meant to be used independently of reddit and the code was just thrown out there for anybody to use.
As a result it’s impossible to update to the lasted version of the reddit code base. That probably means that it has unpatched security holes.
Issues such as finding a mass downvoter seemed not available in the standard moderator interface. Things like checking users IP addresses for banned poster detection seem to not have an interface but require sysadmin work.
I don’t think that a domain name that contains the phrase “conspiracy” is a good idea.
I find it set that PredictionBook is a separate website from LW.
Does the telesc software allow plugins where predictionbook style entries could be found at the same site where also other communication happens?
It might also additional allow adamzerner systemized arguments as a specific kind of post. A open plugin interface might provide for anyone who wants to start a new way of arguing an opening.
I’m not sure how much interest there is in programmers contributing that way, but I think even hacker news style + prediction book style would provide enough momentum to get the website started.
