An idea for combatting less-thoughtful more-frequent posting: allow at most one post per day. If one gets but one chance to express something, the choice of topic and the care taken in expression may be more thoughtful.
(Or maybe one post and one reply to a response; otherwise, nobody would get a question answered in a timely manner.)
- Karawebnetwork 5y agoI manage a lot of spaces on Facebook and they recently'ish added a feature like this that moderators can enable on posts. It limits users to one comment every 5 minutes. It makes a difference - a big one. Some posts that would not have been approved end up being approved when this feature is enabled. Instead of wars of words and knee-jerk reactions, people know they can only leave one post every five minutes, so the first few replies take a few minutes to appear. Then, responses to those responses are even more cautious. People avoid commenting on multiple threads because they can't interact with all of them at once.

- Karawebnetwork 5y agoIt's for individual posts, so at least they can still leave comments elsewhere.
