I’d like to suggest a section where we might post recommendations about improvements to .

For example, I’ve been looking for a place to report offensive or unnecessary comments made regarding chatbots listed, such as the one below. 

http://www.chatbots.org/chatterbot/lauren/

One would hope that the moderators/administrators of the forum would check each comment as it was posted to the bot directory.

For all but the forums, we’ve all kind of automated tools which move suspicious comments to a comment queue where we’ll check comments manually.

Then we’ll get e-mails to notify us on every comment that is posted immediately. However, as that’s manual and we don’t have a 24/7 scheme (yet), there might be a delay in the moderation.

And even then, some comments might simply slip our attention. But we’ll do everything we can within time and budget.

I like the idea of reporting offensive and unnecessary comments. We’ve just reorganizing the Admin forum board a bit and created a dedicated are:
http://www.chatbots.org/admin/viewforum/45/

Because this is our admin forum, it won’t be included in the daily digests.

For the forum moderation, we have awesome Dave

I don’t know that I would go so far as “awesome”, but the compliment is appreciated, Erwin. Thanks.

As to the automated process that Erwin mentioned, I’m afraid that’s not something that I receive notifications about, so short of manually going through each and every article on a daily basis, there’s not much I can do about any new comments that might prove to be problematic. If you would like to add me to that particular “loop”, Erwin, I wouldn’t mind. It may be useful to have someone in this time zone to help cover things.

Are you sure Dave? you’ll get even more e-mails

I don’t mind at all. If it helps the community, I’m all for it.
