Whoever set this up, how are people going to post something like an ongoing jokes thread or guides or whatever if you can’t post more than 3 times in a row? Make other people reply even though it doesn’t make sense to enforce that? Editing a post isn’t always useful so… What’s that supposed to achieve? ![Screenshot_20231024-202308](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex019/uploads/gemsofwar/original/3X/6/5/65a8931e72b823973a71c99cc48d67e87a72b3dd.png) Also, could anyone please reply anything in [-o- Eika’s Funny Corner -o-](https://community.gemsofwar.com/t/o-eikas-funny-corner-o/73960) so I can keep helping out my friend and post his memes/jokes for him? (Preferably something nice. 😉) Thanks. 🙂 ---

At least an edit serves as a thread bump in this forum here (unlike most places), so one of the main drawbacks, that your changed posting remains unseen, is left out. The stance on how bad of a thing multiposting is, varies across the web. I guess, having a tight limit is still better than having mods remove posts, that they feel are above the tolerance level. ---

Consider it done. I added a reply so you can keep posting. 🙂 ---

Thank you. ❤ I’ll make sure to frequently answer there once he’s back. I think it’s stupid but hey… 😅 ---

Unless anyone is actually spamming I don’t understand the “someone needs to post between” stance. It’s the first time I’ve seen that, but I also usually post in threads that are active and where several people are posting. Deleting would be worse, that’s true. ---

Seems like it would also lead to a bunch of “this is a reply” posts by folks who are more than willing to help someone continue their thread - not really improving the quality of the thread if that was the intent of the rule. ---

Yes, absolutely. It will lead to unnecessary fluff in threads like the one by Eika.
