The idea behind flagging is to create an Augeo community. Currently posts are categorized into a specific skill by the user via hashtag (e.g., #augeosports), or if the hashtag is missing, by an algorithm. Sometimes users will abuse the hashtag categorization or the algorithm will classify incorrectly. In these situations, the Augeo community will have the ability to 'flag' the post and re-classify it. This is a way to keep our users and algorithms honest. After a post is re-classified, the user that re-classified the post will be awarded experience for their 'Community' skill. In order to keep everyone honest, a re-classification will have to go through several levels of approval. For example, if a person that re-classifies a post has a Community level of 1 then 2 other members with a higher Community level than 1 will have to approve the re-classification.
