Please see http://drupal.org/project/slashcomments for further details about this module
This is a re-post of a topic at http://groups.drupal.org/node/26195. I was advised to post new module here.

This module implements major features of Slashdot moderation and comment system. I made a few attempts previously with various hacks/modules, but this module is very mature and fully compatible with latest VotingAPI. I have not encountered any issues using this module.

What it does:

Transforms comment controls to Slasdot type (thresholding).
Displays each comment slashdot-type.
Hides comments below threshold. Hidden comments can be uncollapsed by a click.
Provides slashdot moderation system (troll, interesting, insightful, funny, etc).
Own comments stand out.

TODO:

  • Ajax comment moderation
  • Integration with Karma/Userpoints
  • Meta-moderation
  • Limited modpoints

You can download the module from my website: http://www.mukhsim.com/blog/slashdot-style-comment-moderation-drupal

Please take a look at the module and let me know what you think.

Demo site is available at: http://slashcomments.mukhsim.com/

Also, should I be releasing it into Contrib?

Max.

I recommend you to contribute your module if you really want feedback, issue queue and also free security team revisions which will make your module more reliable

for instance, as a security policy many specifications wouldn't allow the use of modules out of drupal.org or home made

Awesome!
This is exactly what I've been looking for since the first releases of Drupal 5!

Great module, I can't wait to install the stable version on my various communities. :D

I have been looking for a CMS system to post content in a Slashdot-vein. I really enjoy the Slashdot moderation system.

However, looking at the four areas left in your "Todo" section, those are still features I'd really be looking for.

On your blog, it says you went in another direction with vBulletin. Are you still working on this at all?
