Please only post a few posts to a community at a time.

Over the past week I've seen a few users posting dozens of photos all at once to the same community which could be seen as spamming. You may mean well by posting several posts at once, but because of lemmy’s limited algorithms this will saturate the feeds of many people on this instance and other instances.

What is considered spamming will be left up to the admins/mods, but if you’ve made more than 10 posts at a time in a single community, consider waiting until a later time to continue posting to that community.

Spamming may result in a 1 day or longer community or sitewide ban depending on the severity and if it's a repeated offense.

Some things to consider to prevent spamming: If you have multiple images from a photoset, maybe post them all as one or two posts.

Slightly off topic, but as lemmy is so low volume, pretty often the same image shows up in the feed 3-4 times next to each other from someone crossposting to multiple communities. I would suggest that crossposting be limited as much as possible for that reason. As the post volume still is so small there's not much reason to even go to a topical community. I just check local once in a while and even then I quickly get down to already seen material so the chance of not seeing a post is pretty low unless it is a community I've blocked, but then odds are I won't like it anyway.

Just my opinion, of course. Thoughts?

I think there's merit to cross-posting, and until I see an egregious misuse of it I don't want to police users too much, I put this rule into place because I did see a ridiculous amount of posts in single communities. I'll talk with the other admins and see what their opinion is though.

Annoying as hell when the posters spam into communities that don't they don't align with, too.

"Pussy? I have one of those. Submit."

Many get a pass despite breaking rules in those communities, indicating apathetic mods, or perhaps they want more content...

I actually want to see more native cross posts. What annoys me, is the same image uploaded multiple times to different communities (often with a different title).

Thanks, I've seen quite a lot of bodybuilders yesterday ...

The weekend was covered with chicks with dicks too

Thanks! This was something that drives me crazy, but it seems like the biggest offenders are repost bots (which I don't have any problem with in general) and I suspect they are going to miss this post.

[–] PhoebeGrace@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 months ago

thank you for the update sir!! hope i wasn’t an offender but i will be extra careful in the future to make sure lemmy is a safe and respectful community. it’s been so good to see all these beautiful new OC girls join the site and we all need to do our part to make them feel welcomed!! the more OC, and the less porn reposts, the better the community will be 🫶💖

One of the offenders. Will take care from now on.

I appreciate that, yours isn't actually that bad, there was someone who posted literally 40+ images in 40+ posts in the same community. Not only that but there were photos of the same image set split across several different posts

[–] whoisme@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 months ago

That sucks for everyone. I'd rather see similar photos in a single post, and mark the post in a way that makes it obvious that it has more photos.

I apologize if I’m one of them 💜

You're also fine because your posts are to different communities and are often varied, you're actually a good example of posting a lot without it being spam IMO

[–] PhoebeGrace@lemmynsfw.com 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

agreed, they post a lot but it is all good quality and they make a good effort to spread it through different subs. we ❤️ the nodachi clan

I appreciate you beautiful Phoebe Grace 💜
