Social solutions need enforcement by humans and we know well that it's not scalable.
Enforcement is very scalable. Police can do their work just as well in the States than in Flanders from what I see. And the States are hundreds times bigger.

For a virtual example, look at World of Warcraft. Lots of people get banned or suspended from that place. Ok, the exact breach of the rules is DETECTED by technical means. But the ban actions are taken as social means, by the humans running Blizzard.

All that's needed for enforcement to scale is for someone with balls to run the place instead of a bleeding heart liberal. The most succesful online communities I've encountered in my online years, were the communities who were "liberal" with one thing only - that is the amount of times the ban button is pressed.
