I think we all know what would happen if we relaxed the rules about submission: This sub would spiral downward out of control with off-topic posts and people claiming 'IT WAS ZEE JEWS'. I think the best thing we've done was create other subs for loose/general discussion.
A lot of that is actually just one guy who is creating accounts with bots though. There was a post a while back where they guy admitted it when someone noticed a whole bunch of posts by "ABot1" "ABot2" "ABot3", etc. that were deleted within a few minutes. I'm not saying you can necessarily do anything about it--just checking if you are aware.
Not to even mention the fact that he's not good at it.
He has no tact whatsoever, it's just "make another account, post some completely obvious bait/bullshit, make no attempt to disguise shitty intentions of said post, upvote said post with many alternate accounts, post gets downvoted to shit and deleted. Rinse, repeat"
Never anything creative, never anything with a goal, never goes anywhere. He's kind of sad, actually.
