In order to further improve security, Kickstarter said it will work with the Kickstarter Community Advisory Council, launching in May, which will be made up of creators who are knowledgeable about a range of fields. An unscrupulous creator using the platform could leverage the reporting feature to at least temporarily hide their negative comments, or those questioning the project’s viability or safety, while continuing to crowdfund, perhaps. While there is value in hiding potentially abusive comments for further review, there’s also the possibility that such a system itself could be abused if the reviews don’t take place quickly enough. ![]() “With this work, we’re being careful to care for the health of the whole system-creators need to feel safe, and backers need to be able to raise questions and concerns,” Kickstarter said in its blog post outlining the changes. When revoking commenting privileges, Kickstarter will provide backers with more specific information about when they can expect those privileges to be restored, it says. Kickstarter announced today it will now automatically hide from public view comments reported by creators until its Trust and Safety team has reviewed them and made a decision as to whether the comment should remain or be deleted, in an effort to curb the number of abusive comments visible on the platform.Ĭreators will also now have the option to select a reason for reporting a comment when flagging it for review, which Kickstarter hopes will allow its team to address abuse more quickly. ![]()
