For what it's worth, I disagree with pre-moderation. I'm not frequent enough to ever have hundreds of karma points, and it's very rare for me to see a "nasty comment".
What's wrong with reactive moderation? Or the existing system where unpopular comments fade away literally?
Pre-moderation kills the flow of conversation. It's a massive bottleneck, is more work for moderators, and for what benefit? Sanitation?
There's nothing wrong with a bit of grit. We're not all sensitive flowers, reduced to tears at the sight of a nasty spray by Mr X. I hardly see that anyway, I'm really suprised to see pending comments even being contemplated here.
