It seems like a lot of the low quality and/or obvious trolling submissions that we get daily could be avoided if the subreddit simply had a modest karma limit for new user submissions.
By low quality submissions, I mean submissions asking questions that are not about Copenhagen and/or only specifically relevant for the Randomly-GenratedUsername993762 account made yesterday. A karma limit would prevent those users from filling the airwaves. They can still ask the same questions in the monthly thread, though.
By troll submissions, I mean rage bait posts that the community clearly doesn't want here, but can't help replying to while massively downvoting. You know exactly the kind of users making these posts. They often have multiple accounts with karma in the negatives and they thrive on constantly submitting text posts that complain about every miniscule facet of Danes and Copenhagen (and the superiority of country X and Y), providing absolutely no value other than starting arguments over nothing all the damn time.
Please institute a karma limit for submissions. It doesn't have to be high, but it would make this community so much better and it would also make modding the subreddit a lot easier, I'm sure.
Ok, first of: thanks for the post. It's good to have a meta-discussion about rules and enforcement every now and then. We sometimes get mod-mail about issues but I find it often more helpful to have discussions on what to improve in the open.
I've increased the required karma limit for submissions to 100. Wouldn't want to increase the account age too high, since if you want to post you shouldn't need to wait for months (we sometimes approve such posts manually but I wouldn't want to create additional work and delays for little upside) and a lot of the negativity comes from the same few people.
We're discussing other improvements but things move slowly as we are also only volunteers. If there's anything else that you'd like to be changed feel free to make additional posts.
Fingers crossed that this change is moving in the right direction.
