Limit "Up Thread" to 1 post per section per day

[Rasturize]

Currently there is a 1 day timer on Upping a specific thread, but I think this should extend to an entire forum section (Plugins, for example) instead.

Reasoning behind this is that specifically in the plugin section, people have 5+ plugins posted and then Up each thread at the same time, flooding the entire first page of the subforum and making it harder for new posts to gain attention.

This is a great idea. It’s become a huge problem when people up a dozen threads and flood the section. I’d lower the limit though, maybe half a day?

That seems fair, just any form of limitation so that threads are more staggered, instead of just an entire page of 1 person's threads.

I agree that having many threads being upped in the same section is annoying- but maybe capping it at 1 is too little. 2-3 can't be that annoying.

This has been suggested and denied in the past. If a user is offering multiple services, as long as they all follow our rules I don't understand why we should put them at a disadvantage compared to creators who have only ever released one product. Last time this suggestion was brought up it evolved into a conversation about why we have the forums to begin with since resources exist.

If you're offering 20 builds for sale, then I have no problem with you creating 20 threads for those builds and bumping them daily.

Denied, thanks for the suggestion.
