for the same reason that users don't get to vote for the front page, it's too open to abuse.
Within hours of setting that up, the board will have chosen someone to pick on and start linking every one of their posts.
The mods might miss things every now and then, but things do get picked up on eventually. Persistent offenders and trolls get banned.
In the meantime, there is an ignore button to hide posts that you don't want to see. One click and all the bad stuff goes away.

I don't think we need more functions, just more moderation, as in a mod on board at all times if it's possible. I've seen it done and there are certainly educated, sensible and level headed people here could do the job.

what about a "report this" button that messages a mod. but the user who reported would stand to account if the report was done for little or no reason?
I suppose that would clog up the mods inbox at times.

Can't say I like the flag this on youtube, because I want to watch the racy videos.
but the thing is if someone reports an image with the reason "60kb" they should get a naughty step for abuse of the feature. Similarly if they flag for "contains gary glitter, offensive to victims of child abuse" they should also should be told to get tae fuck.
