View submission: Announcing the Crowd Control Beta

View parent comment

u/MajorParadox, u/V2Blast Oh, I realized I answered your question wrong too. For the beta only Mods will see a comment is crowd controlled. This was an intentional decision for the moment since we don't display collapse reasons (and there's more than just controversial). We're looking at that more holistically during the beta.

Oh, so it doesn't solve the issue of users being confused when they see it? I think that was one of the biggest concerns raised during the alpha.

Ah, okay. At least when it's out of beta, I think there should be some indication of *why* posts are auto-collapsed, so that it's transparent and not just seen as "silent censorship". It also lets people make the informed decision to uncollapse a comment, and maybe even upvote it if it's a worthwhile comment and not just brigading/trolling by a new account.

Aren’t there collapse reasons like ‘below downvote threshold’ and the new ‘potentially toxic comment’?
