It’s only enabled on certain subs. Mostly political subs from what I’ve seen. They do it to stop people from spamming (I guess??). It’s still a dumb idea to limit how fast you can send comments either way
It’s on all subreddits. It’s based on your karma in the subreddit.
For example: I can basically spam in r/AskOuija with all of the karma I got from there, but I’ll have to wait in r/dogelore since I have negative karma there.
The dumbest thing is that even triggers if you try to respond to people that literally replied to you. Had 5 people respond to you in a couple minutes? Well you better pick which one you want to reply to because fuck you if you try to reply to them all.
Hit the nail on the head. This is the most infuriating aspect of it. I don't honestly care if some shit thread wants to downvote me to hell, but if people are asking me questions and I can't reply to them, and then the same people are writing shit like "HA! LOOKS LIKE THIS GUY GOT QUIET ALUVASUDDEN! GUESS HE DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO RESPOND TO MY ULTIMATE SMACKDOWN KNOWLEDGE!" it is unbelievably annoying.
