We really need a comm for commentors who aren't lost but just plain clueless. Something like 'c/rtfa'

It does not take any funding to create accounts a few days in advance. Automating account creation is probably the most basic step in any troll's toolbox.

reactionary basement neckbeards who wouldn’t post the same stuff a day later.

Trolls who give up after a day aren't trolls, they're users having a bad day. And if they're stopping after a day, their impact on everybody else is miniscule.

On the OTHER hand, as everybody has pointed out, you're badly impacting the new user experience. Bullshit posting restrictions on reddit are one of the worst things they came up with. Let's not replicate all the user hostile stuff they implemented.

How does staggered new account permissions help deter bad actors in any way whatsoever? There's nothing preventing them from having a pipeline of accounts in aging.

Yeah, they all seem to be posting vague ragebait. There's definitely some sort of agenda there

Wonder if there's enough interest in this to create a comm for it. Or maybe a more generic 'daily game' thing

Well, common in certain circles. Definitely cryptic for everybody else, though.

Pretty disappointing that it doesn't allow you to access old puzzles.

You seem be be operating under the assumption that laws themselves will always be just and equal.
