Should the throttle be removed from COVID thread?

I like you Wookie. But you are planning to go from 24h throttle straight to completely open? Yeah, that can’t work. I get the thread has been a trouble thread. If I were you I would, move it to 1h throttle, maybe even now. Wait a a bit. Move it to 15m…

Clock is working. It prevented an easy dunk on a really bad error. Probably won’t be mean tomorrow.

I was actually thinking that should be the default setting, like a throttle that automatically ramps up and down.

The throttle seems to be unpopular even while it seems to be working well. I think it’s better to let it expire than to continue with a different throttle. If the thread immediately turns into a shitshow again, that would hopefully be additional evidence that’s taken into consideration by the yes voters here.

Wait. The throttle had an upfront time limit of one week and people are bitching about it?

If that can’t work the thread should be locked or those who can’t manage the transition eat a ban.

We are allegedly adults here. Not requiring people to act like actual adults is a huge leak.

Letting them get away with childish behavior because is a horrible plan.

If the people who use that thread don’t learn a lesson from a week throttle I don’t know why they shouldn’t be banned. I wouldn’t want people with such little self control contributing here.

What are we doing here?

I was on Team #Don’tCare but now that N888 tha\’ Gr888 is putting up World Cup odds I think it should be game on, or at least knocked down to a few hours between posts.

14 hours sitting on watching no one notice the most obvious error is KILLING ME

This should be deleted. If the thread is throttled we should not continue the discussion here.

@MrWookie How is there still a throttle given the results of this poll?

This poll doesn’t follow the official Unstuck practice of RFCs and a bunch of waiting and other dumb beaurocracy, ldo. Just consider yourself lucky the thread is still open and our benevolent overlords permit the hoi polloi to post in it.

@moderators its getting conspicuous that the COVID thread is still trottled in light of this poll. I’m starting to lean more and more on the side of those questioning @MrWookie.

Are we community modded or not?

I can’t see the throttle. Can someone please report if it’s still there for a non-mod/admin?

It’s gone. Pretty sure it was gone before Marty’s post.
