Satoshi's 2-cents on double posting

[Anarchytekt]

Sorry if this is stupid, but is double-posting allowed in 'Fun Time in Pokeland'?

No falcon, because the double posting rule also protects the bandwidth of pokecommunity -it's not just about people's posts

 

[Spectrum]

I don't think it matters, considering none of your posts there affect your post count. =/

Edit: Or you could put it that way... @ Claire

It is also ok in the Art forum. When you post a pic and maybe a day or so later you get another one done and post that one.

Bandwidth wouldn't really be an issue, but yeah. ^^ It breaks the flow of the game/conversation you're participating in, that's why I've always understood it's banned.
Also, I guess this would be a good time to bring up, when someone double posts/breaks a rule Don't go off-topic informing them it's against the rules, just report the post without posting about it, and leave it to the mods.


An exception might be if they do an off-topic, but well intended post about, say, where to find Trainer Cards, you could point them in the right direction and then get back on the topic. But for the most part, let the mods do it.

Also sweeties, don't double post when your messages are about 6 letters long, and the rest is 25 limit bypass. XD

 

[Melody]

well at least you are fair about it.
