Too many discussions?

in General Discussion
Can someone please explain this to me? In one of my recent discussions @SummonerNR posted this, and I responded, but I haven’t gotten a response. Instead of restating the question I’ll attach a picture.

    What's the confusion

    Read the comment under the one where I replied.(the second one in the screen shot)

    They weren't saying you had to wait a specified period of time prior to starting a new discussion.
    There are no mods working on the weekends, so when multiple players make separate posts about the same thing it clutters the page for no reason.
    When there is already an existing discussion on a topic we don't need another one. Instead of starting a new one, add to an already existing conversation.
    Peak before you post.

    To be fair I didn’t see it on the first page of discussions

    There is no set amount of maximum posts you can make everyday.

    But with the amount of people who frequent the forums here, if everyone were making several posts a day, you could see how nobody would be able to find anything up here among all the clutter. It would be one long Twitter or TikTok board.

    People in the past have generally agreed that more than one a day is probably overkill (and, do they really need to be made, is it an actual issue with game, that isn’t already being talked about, or just random thoughts of the day, the same gripes, or other such stuff).

    Just trying to avoid people getting into habits that could cause them to be known as the next Redfire, Goli, McD, or many others over the years that seemed to post too much.

    Ah I see, thanks for clarifying that up. I’ll make sure not to post more than one a day. :)

    Your "opportunity for improvement" is avoiding creating posts and then also being the first several comments on your own posts. Slightly different.

    Is there anything I could improve on or that I’m doing wrong?

    You've already considered Summoner's feedback on limiting your number of posts in one day. Though there is no specific rule against how many times you can post (though there is such a thing as too much), there is still good food for thought there. Consider leaving space for others to have conversations and you'll be fine. The forums are a place to come and to talk about the game, and if you want to post something to add a new conversation to the mix, you are welcome to do that the same as anyone else is. Just be careful to make sure that that conversation isn't already happening. I think you also caught this guardian in the middle of a day where about 2 dozen people posted about the epic bounties being down instead of looking at the forums to see that 2 dozen people already posted it before them. The previous post about Sauron also had only 2 or 3 comments on the day you posted yours, so I fully believe you didn't see it and it happened to pop back up after your post, it just happened that it was posted first, so it looked like you posted without paying attention even though that may not be the case.
    Awareness and self-control are the names of the game. It is often better to add to discussions than to start new ones.

    Thank you. I did consider what summoner said and will make sure not to post repeat post or too many post in a day. I was mainly wondering if there was anything else besides that.
