On various old-school forums, there's a simple (and automated) system of trust that progresses from new users (who might be spam)... where every new user might need a manual "approve post" before it shows up. (And this existed in Reddit in some communities too).
And then full powers granted to the user eventually (or in the case of StackOverlow, automated access to the moderator queue).
