Rules for Regulars

The whole point of “regular”, is that they are literally a regular. They do these things regularly. Hitting a magical number once, then walking away for six months is the exact opposite of that, but would be allowed under your proposal. That’s a non-starter.

Different speeds are themselves fine. I am not advocating for the end of chat topics. It’s the mixing of the different speeds of discussion that’s the root of the problem…
