Can we use the forum data for good?

[Adz]

We seem to have a fair number of mental episodes on the forum for the years. Any way we can pump the data into a machine learning program to predict when a person is likely to have an episode and shut them off in advance? If successful it could be expanded to major social media platforms to help improve peoples mental health.

Like that Tom Cruise movie?

Can you imagine the meltdowns if people were banned before they’d done anything...

People with a mental health issue should be silenced?

[Rich Tea Wellin]

Can you expand on what you mean by 'mental episodes'?

[Disoriented]

This all sounds very 1933.

I was thinking if they got blocked before they have a breakdown it may stop it happening

Oh..right...

I thought talking about things was good for your mental health.

[Dunners]

But if we did that we'd miss out on all the entertainment.

For sure, but in the past you see escalating levels of aggression, conflict, and odd postings. That's not talking about it it's just adding fuel to the problem. Just thought it was an interesting idea that could have some social benefit.

We'd need to devise an algorithm than can accurately predict when a boarder is about to go OFF.

Maybe we could have some people dedicated to defusing these situations before they get out of hand? Something like a moderator, mebbe

If you want your posts moderated, I can arrange that for you.

I am thinking someone in this thread is exhibiting symptoms of having a mental episode himself

better make sure it won't adversely discriminate against boarders from poorer areas

We had one previously for the various OFFCON levels.
