I’m curious. I saw this at the bottom of the Legion topic. The topic wasn’t locked though. What does it mean?
It relates to the following Discourse forum tool:
It seems to be intended to deescalate topics that can get heated and have very fast comment replies. Sort of a mandatory cooling off type of thing as far as I can tell.
I agree this is a great idea.
Also this means I won’t get to eat as much popcorn because people wouldn’t be irrational and crazy.
I thought you were requesting that we only post every 8 hours in this thread. Like it was a game or something

same
A game?!
I want to play a game
You lose. Title says 8 hours between posts, not between your posts.
Well I waited over 8 hours since my last post and it has been over two days since your post so do I win?
I will wait 8 hours for your reply
I lost interest, and prefer my rules vs huges84 rules
I’m operating off Monopoly rules, personally.
I was even more confused - I’ve only been reading one post every 8 hours…
I’ve seen three of these topics pop up recently and I don’t even see that those topics got out of hand … at all.
Maybe posts were deleted? Someone has an itchy trigger finger these days?
I will let @ZackeryWeimer cover this in detail since he is in charge, but I am pretty sure some pruning has taken place, which is related to the reason that the posting delay was employed.
I’ve seen more locked, specifically:
Do you really need days off/z1?
I’m not really seeing any contention in these topics so I’m not getting why so many are being locked.
