Alternative idea: Subs that break this rule are kept off the default front page.

I think the original idea seems good though; if it is not, for some reason, there can always be a later discussion about changing it.

I think that is too much like the Reddit solution of quarantining. It hides problems but doesn't solve echochambers.

Great point!

That's an interesting solution that could be quite effective.

Could be. Or it could just create a corner that turns into an echo chamber cesspool.

IMHO one of the best things about SaidIt is the minimizing of divisions.

totally agree. there are plenty of outlets for people that want to spew.

To be more specific, I'm guessing you're talking about the rule: "No removal of good faith and on-topic posts/comments."

Others are also floating a "Limit number of subs rule."
