Lets say the offending material is extremely and obviously offending. You want to send this image to 100 volunteers to be viewed and voted on? What If I have the my pictorial guide to gutting and skinning a pig uploaded to my profile. 1000 pictures... 100,000 volunteers just vomited a little in their throats. My account gets deleted, I create a new email address and I'm back!:D
Exposing volunteers to REAL abusive images/videos/text is IMHO worse then trying to catch false positives. If you want to be a forum moderator go for it, but to be a content moderator for an international site of millions of people is a bit like opening your soul to all the evil in the world.
User Accountability -
Facebook users abuse reports should be confirmed on a random sample basis, every 10 abuse reports filed. If the abuse report is a fake report, the user should be dealt with on step based incident system. First incident, warning. Second-Third incident, temp suspension. Fourth incident, full account suspension.
