Add a one day cooldown for new users

One or 2 days is too long. 10 minutes would do

does this already exist in Discourse?
just asking because if it doesn’t you’d have to suggest that at the forums for discourse.

Yeah, I’m pretty sure there is already a plugin for that cooldown and Hive doesn’t need to create one.

What I think would do is a minimum post counter before you can make suggestions/vote.

i feel like this wouldn’t necessarily work because they could just go farm posts in all the forums games (i.e last to post wins, ban the person above you, etc) then go ahead and make a duplicate suggestion w/o reading the rules

No, no, no. I swear if this rule was implemented when I first joined the forums, I would be furious.
lol I joined the forums just to ask a question then just got addicted to helping out! :blush:

Wait, this is a necropost? It said 14 days later but I’m so sorry. :expressionless:

yes it should be implemented, most dupe suggestions are from people who joined that day and this would force them to get familliar with the forums. They could always ask the question in a topic like Last to post wins

But what about if they need to post something in #help-me or #server-bug-reports or #games quickly? Like me :sob:.

#help-me and #server-bug-reports would probably be excluded

Now I 80% support. You earn a vote lol
@unikern You should add the exclutions.

Idk I don’t post farm and bump old topics

No, for new users. (sorry for late post btw)
