Hello

@JoeW The meta consensus was to remove it, but I believe it was left for the mods since they have better tools to get rid of it with less disruption

I think I may have given some bad advice to a new user.....

I recommended they write some good answers to help get their account unlimitted but failed to realize they might not be able to tell what a good answer is....

I should have recommended to lurk more and get a feel for how things work before writing again, as it stands it looks like they are going to get further limited as their latest answers is going to be a bit of a flop....

@Malco I'm nearly positive that question rate limits aren't at all affected by answers

That user's two previous questions are deleted, so that's where the problem is

ahh, I see. I suspected as much since his mtg tag is negative, but I don't have the privileges to search for the users deleted posts

Not sure whether it was @murgatroid99 or @Cascabel, but RE: my recently declined flag with about the edits. Just wanted to bring it to your attention as it looked ok but kinda tripped my suspicions a bit. Ran out of character in the flag text so that last sentence was supposed to be "might bordering on spam" vs "it is borderline spam"

It's a direct answer to the question, with disclosure. I don't really see it as borderline; it seems like it's definitely not spam.

That part is questionable. If the user's goal here is to promote their thing, then even with the proper attribution, it's still kind of spammy

I mean, okay, but he posted only one answer.

to me the concern is bumping it constantly with trivial edits

right, that would be a concern, but... it doesn't actually seem constant

there's a couple clusters

yeah there are edits they're actually, like, genuinely improving their post

basically there are three clusters of six-ish edits within a few days, plus one more a week off?

This is about as much as I think it's worth saying.

@Cascabel doing just that looks good to me

cool, thanks.
