Petition to ban people who dont link the appeal in peanut OPs

MSO will obviously have the ultimate say if he wants to step in (because technically I'm to enforce rules and not necessarily create them, but we have a distinct lack of checks and balances here), but before I start at-will gunning down peanut thread OPs in the streets without warning I figured I'd put up a poll about it.

If this poll receives an overwhelming majority Yes vote by the time it closes (7 days from posting), I will create Off-Topic's only real board-specific rule: Users who post a peanut thread without linking the appeal/complaint in question in the OP automatically receive a 12-hour forumban and have their thread deleted.
This rule will be appended to the board rules thread.

This rule is just because you're too lazy to figure out what they are talking about.

I voted yes, because what the hell people link the thread it's not hard.

no, legit, is this seriously how policy is pushed through? throwing up a fucking poll where LITERALLY NO ONE WILL SEE IT.

as of this time, SIXTEEN PEOPLE have voted. out of the HUNDREDS that play here.

i wonder what would happen if a poll were thrown up here about how many people LIKE KILO STATION (which is fucking hot garbage btw)

im linking this in general so people actually FUCKING SEE THIS. AND COMMENT ON IT.

there's multiple appeals on a single page, sometimes there's activity in the peanut but the appeal gets left for dead. sometimes the opposite.

You could just permanently ban Timonk and solve the problem that way. Of course, without him who would make the low effort threads that invite the joys of shitposting?

It's a good thing Kendrickorium took leave of his senses briefly in a way similar to what I do sometimes and made his thread with the sensationalist title or I wouldn't have seen this almost completely inconsequential poll the results of which only affect the people who make peanut threads

e: compare below i think this is better

Coming to forums, proposing cool ideas you have, and being absolutely shit on by people who don’t even play the game is a rite of passage at this point.

It’s so sad because this actually happens, people make a new account, make a couple ideas threads, and then leave when they get shut on

You give him too much worth, his tool is and always has been blunt, and should have been hung up in the shed quite some time ago.

With 71% of the vote (when you filter out Abstain votes) as of the poll closing I will be putting this into motion, no more will you have to guess what the peanut thread is talking about.
Slight change though, bans will be 6 hours and not 12 because there's no 12 hour button and I'm lazy I am so nice, sorry if that's not exactly what you voted for
