Of course presumably there will still be people with the authority to remove really bad examples like that. But will they have the time to look after the many many lists which will probably soon exist?

On the inverse side, I think I'll also track your voting rates, and if you tend to rate too many people as trolls or spam then your voting will also be throttled.
But, it's also just a plan. The goal is to create something that lets communities moderate themselves without too much tyranny of the majority of minority. That's why the code is open, so that people with ideas about how to do that can help make it happen.
While I like the idea, I'm not sure it's a good idea to label it as such in the interface.
You might also have a hard time figuring out the genuine flaggings from the ones made by spambots...
Maybe deliver to people in a reputation order and slight delay to allow the damage to be minimized?
So yeah, you'll get some spam. Install a spam filter and just accept that's the price you pay for being on the internet, and we'll do our best to reduce it.
For fucks sake trolls are just people who do things. They aren't magical beings that need to be warned off or they will eat you.
In Adult World we deal with simply don't give attention to attention wanters.
