We’ve had to create a new sidebar rule, we won’t be enacting it retroactively because that just doesn’t seem fair, but going forward:

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

    19 articles still seems like reasonable usage to me. Spam or abuse would probably be a bit higher than that and likely include off topic and duplicate links.

      That was the question I put to the other mods… “Heyyy… we don’t exactly have a rule for this, 19 seems like a lot…”

      We collectively decided on 10, but this is all new, it might change!

      The prime focus is making sure no single user dominates the front page. How big the “front page” is varies by app though.

    IDK, if this community has any hope of being anywhere near as comprehensive in coverage as the News Subreddits were its going to take some superusers.

      This community censors Al Jazeera posts by calling them “duplicates” and leaves up the least anti-Israel post.

      I highly doubt it cares about being comprehensive in coverage
