Seems very broad and general. The beauty of Reddit is going into subreddit's and asking a question to a specific community. Reddit is also fairly anonymous too.

I understand that this is a commercial platform, but when cash is introduced to a Q/A system... incentives are misaligned.

It seems communities without monetary gain (Hacker News, Reddit etc...), have very little incentive to lie...
