/prog/ etiquette


although we love to complain about spam/shit posts, i believe
that given the ε-amount of moderation that goes on here we're
not doing too badly.

writing a bot to destroy /prog/ would be about 5 minutes of
work (2 minutes in racket), yet /prog/ seems to survive and
thrive. I am curious to find out why this is.

• It makes it harder to find new posts.
• It helps shitposting and spam float to the top.
• It increases the chance of active threads falling off the front page.
• It boosts the ``It's polite to sage in /prog/'' troll's ego.
• It marks you as new here.
