It would be a nice feature...

In the past, i always argued that, sooner or later, we'd get new forum software (epochtalk) and that meddling with SMF's sourcecode to implement even more custom code wasn't that good of an idear... There was even a time i was running an epochtalk instance so i could make bug or feature requests in the repo (not that this ever happened tough). But when i look at the repo now, i see the last release was allmost 3 years ago, so i wonder if it might be a good idear to start asking for changes on SMF again (since the new forum software doesn't seem to be going anywhere anytime soon).

Not your keys, not your coins!
If nothing is personally serious, report and moderator handle are enough to moderate any thread.

Self-moderation is more like individually moderate a thread with your personal view that can be just personal and does not need to be correct. I don't think self moderation by multiple people will be good because there will be differences in their view, post interpretation so that those co-moderators in a self moderated thread will have conflicts in their view and it won't cause an happy ending in their co-moderation.

I can see this feature being useful in certain occasions, but since they are so rare I don't really think that theymos will want waste his time time implementing something like this. Especially since there are much more important things to implement, like 2fa for example.

If this can be added it will definitely be beneficial.Even if it’s not added in the general forum, gambling board should be considered as the op sometimes can miss posts that should be deleted.
Why gambling boards? Most threads on gambling main board and gambling discussion board are not self-modersted and there have been good discussions there. If you check other boards, after the first or second page, most posts are like repetition of what some users have posted before in the previous pages.

There might be a lot of off-topic discussion in other boards, but there's always much more when it comes to this gambling board. If you check through the thread history on the gambling board, you will always realize that threads under the gambling board always have a greater number of responses compared to other boards. I guess the OP of this thread has raised an issue regarding that before, which makes almost all his threads under the gambling sections self-moderated to reduce the number of shitposts as much as he can.

Never heard/read any suggestion like this before. Yes, it's a bit an issue for an active thread with inactive OP but its rare to have a very active thread actually except in the wall observer thread.
Its case was , theymos change its ownership[1] by voting 56 active users in the thread.
For this case, it could be useful if added but not really necessary imo, but i dont think it will be implemented or only if everyone will agree to have to it.

Adding such an option will indeed be of great help, that is if it could be considered, as I have come across a lot of self-moderated threads where the OP seems not to be the active type or might have been offline for over some months, yet there is still major discussion going on on that thread, which might not even be in line with what the thread was initially created for.
 
At first when I read the part of you not being online to moderate your self-moderated thread I wanted to write about just reporting the shitposts to moderators, normally when a makes a shit post or an off-topic post it is the duty of forum members to report that post but it seems like no one is reporting posts nowadays.

I don't know how it works, but most times I feel like moderators give less attention to self-moderated topics, as the OP has already committed himself or herself to keeping the thread clean, and the OP is the person who knows what exactly is expected to be seen on the thread and could be considered off topic. So when I come across posts that appear in self-moderated threads, I usually ignore them.

That is i create a self-moderated thread, and i have the option of choosing one, two, or three more users of my choice to join me in self-moderating that thread, just incase if there be any time i (the op), for some reason couldn't come online for a long time, i can trust that the thread wont be derailed with shitposts, somethings outside the real purpose the thread.

First, forgive me if by any chance, it happened that this has been suggested before now, i tried searching but found nothing..

So i was just think..
How about an option to add more user(s) of your choice to co-moderate a your self-moderated thread alongside yourself (the op)?

And yeah, there could be option to remove a co-moderator just incase they turn a bad leave on the forum..

What do you guys think?..
