I know back in the old country (blueit er redhat or whatever it was) there was a rule for waiting a year or some time before reposts were allowed again. Should there be something like that here?

On an unrelated note, I got my friend the other day with a zinger. They were recovering from surgery and said they were moving up their diet and the nurse was getting them a liquid menu. I said, “LIQUID MENU? HOW ARE YOU GONNA HOLD IT?” …I think I could hear eyes rolled over the phone.

I'm sure that not everyone will agree, but it's a little bit sparse for content at the moment, so I'd be inclined to "just churn it out for a while", reposts and all, and maybe make that rule in six months.

As this is a Dad jokes post, I was going to tell a bad joke about chemistry, but I didn’t think it would get a reaction.

I disagree, this could be the catalyst we need for change

Would be appreciated. Obviously without punishment, just remove the post (unless it’s a very frequent offender)

What do you guys think about a rule for reposts?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

3-6 months and remove; no warning/action unless very frequent or persistent.

This is pretty solid
