You are now making the mechanics and dynamics even more obscure. I really don't see what problem you're trying to solve here. Effectively you're getting rid of our ability to control comment spam.

This is not a healthy approach in my opinion. The site doesn't run without you and you're opting to increase your toil and drudgery for little added benefit. I would much rather your main job to be doing stuff that is fun. Off the top of my head, what if new accounts had a "spam" button as well as "promote" and if "spam" gets hit a half-dozen times without "promote" getting hit, the comment gets removed? And if an account gets, say, ten comments removed it shows up wherever you look for such stuff to give you the option to remove the user?
