i like no.2. make the op a temporary 'mini mod', but allow the real mod to override his actions, just how the admins can override the mods.

make it an option on the submit form (click 'i want to mod this thread').

take responsibility for your own posts..

Hmm, idk mixed feelings.

It would at least have to say "COMMENTS MODERATED BY OP" in 36px font when this is happening.

    this is all dandy until a tyrant op comes around and starts deleting and banning like crazy (eg: u/snow, u/critias). in which case it is best if the sub mod works on the situation, rather than waiting for the admins to intervene. this is from past experience and i am sure it will happen again. there will always be reckless people who will usurp even the slightest power. and we must keep the admins from being bogged down in drama and let them work on the site.

    edit: you are just over your two-week time limit to be able to create a sub, so you can have your freedom even now to both post whatever you want and to be a mod over it

    edit2:

    re doing the inverse of what reddit is doing

    again, this sounds good, but there is this quite substantial fact that saidit is running on reddit code..
