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.

      Let’s say, for the sake of argument, the person taking over the front page was some tankie from hexbear, post after post of “Communism good, Democrats are Right Wing” etc. etc. etc.

      The articles posted may be from a variety of sources, but their selection by the same person represents a singular point of view.

      A community serving 33,000 members shouldn’t fall victim to a singular point of view.

      Or, in lighter terms “Hey, give somebody else the chance to post…”

        Hey, give somebody else the chance to post

        They do have a chance. 🤷‍♂️

        But I hear you on the point-of-view argument. 👍
