Limit # topic posts / user / month

Same but in some cases this is useful. For example, we’re thinking about creating an “Announcements” sub-category. Some people in our company have shown a prepensity to spam announcements. This would damage our Discourse instance as a whole, because users would associate Discourse with spam/noise. Consequently users would be less inclined to explore the platform and find the real value.

Putting a hard limit on the Announcements sub-category of one Topic per month would be a good solution here. It would force the poster to really think “Is this actually that valuable?”. Or even better, it would force them to create a more comprehensive/refined monthly newsletter.

@tobiaseigen I’m reviving a very old topic here :sweat_smile: was there ever any movement on this? I’ve seen this plugin:

But it’s not quite what we are looking for.
