Ignores question. Advertises his ebook.
What features can be added to make Facebook and LinkedIn's User Generated Support more effective?
Some of your ideas were:
"Add Certified external Moderators who get benefits from the company for answering questions properly"
"Filter on words like 'fuck'."
"Let trusted Users see a button labeled 'Doesn't answer question'. When clicked it removes the answer immediately'."
"Remove this functionality - their own Help Section should be smart enough to cover all 'what if' scenarios and feature requests."
