Another forum I've used has a downvote button. Once downvotes for a post reaches 10, it's automatically removed for moderation, then either deleted or reinstated once someone gets a look at it. This would remove harmful content from being visible very quickly and uses the entire user base as a first stage moderator in a sense. Works pretty well
This is the kind of system that trolls game. The risk of that would have to be carefully weighed against the risk of not having it. Personally, I think it's more trouble than it's worth.
