Should MovieChat have a daily limit of posts that you can start on General Discussion?


What do you, and also others, possibly, but also not possibly, think about the idea or concept that MovieChat implements a limit of posts, or threads if you want to call it that, that you can post, or start, within a day, or 24 hours?

You know, or maybe you don't know, why I'm asking this.

Also, cheers.

I realized you did a similar post before me. I noticed it just now.

...and whatnot.

I could see some limit - but what would be a good one - 10 ? 5 ? I could see 10, but 5 might be a bit restrictive.

Maybe a temporary ban if it carries on for more than one day.

reply

No, I don't think there should be any kind of limit.

Amen!

FWIW, the only reason I block anyone is to up the signal/noise ratio. Has zero to do with content. Seeing as how everyone has their own personal threshold, I'd be against such an arbitrary blanket limit in theory, but less so in practice.

reply

As I stated to another user above, maybe a temporary ban if it carries on for a few days, rather than a set amount per day.

It's a matter of personal tolerances, masochism or devotion to trolling, imo. Some folks get their kicks arguing with mental midgets all day. Who am I to deprive them of such "pleasures?" Now, I like a lively discussion as long as there is a modicum of detectible intelligence fueling it. It's the pages full of mindless posts that are from a coin toss of either bots or nine ear olds that make me glad for the ignore function. If that did not exist, I'd be more amenable to an auto-penalty box feature. And FWIW, IIRC I only have one or two here, and maybe four or five at F|B, which adds to that place's sense of IMDb nostalgia.

Just block him, I know its annoying, but it helps so you can see the real posts.

reply

He's not a bad guy so I feel blocking is harsh, but he's flooding these boards so much that Noah began gathering two of every creature for his ark again.

reply

He does it about every 4 days, so thats not too bad:)

I do block and unblock him periodically depending on how pissy I'm feeling.

reply

You know that would include you too, right?? ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿ˜œ

But seriously, it's never gonna happen so why bother even talking about. There hasn't been any upgrades to the site in years nor will there probably ever be.

reply

Maybe if mod sees it's happening a lot, they can do a temporary ban.

reply

Post limits just encourages people to make alt accounts to get around them.

reply

Fair point.
