@chrismessina @mmasnick Interesting except it was over for me after becoming manager HAHA
@chrismessina @mmasnick Possibly the point, but I gave up after 9-10 tries w/o once making it past the 1st round, thinking, "Man, I would /hate/ to do this for a living!"
@chrismessina @mmasnick a moderator is or should be an old fashioned policeman?
is it me? As an early adopter circa 1993 before that dial up bulletin boards, 2 strikes and time out! But it seems the great hope we had of internet levelling the sales & business a bit, where being a small concerned supplier of goods & services has now been properly hijacked by BIG money & we all let it happen!
The evolved social media we have is a real scourge "influencers" probably today's equivalent to a market trader & a suitcase?
What was a great idea "reviews" mostly fake now!
I'm off to sit & sulk now! As we are still owned by the rich, just serfs & slaves!
Have a good day!
@chrismessina @mmasnick Simulating what its like to be a social media content moderator? What a thankless job. I work in drug development, and I think I'd throw being an FDA reviewer in the same bin.
