Well, if I got the app, and some idiot started posting racist rhetoric or links to pics of their penis, i'd rather get fewer than an unlimited amount.
Additionally, people should be able to block posters, and the weight of those blocks can ban a user if there are enough and the velocity is high.
In that vein, it would seem that an IRC approach with "channels" might be better, so that you can have a private "channel" with your friends nearby, or move into the "starbucks" channel to get deals and updates from your local Starbucks.
Perhaps allow people to create "private" channels, by invite only, if they buy the paid version of the app..
- Nathanael 14y agoWe have a reporting system planned and once (if we ever) get enough users/messages adding categories would make a lot of sense. I like the idea of private channels.
- PythonDeveloper 14y agoThink about ease of use here. It should allow people to "subscribe" to channels or categories rather than have to click, click, click to change channel/category. What they get is a "stream" of echos that are mixed together that they can filter out. If it's more CraigsList in nature, I don't think it will have the staying power.
- Nathanael 14y agoAgreed, a subscribing system is much better.
