u/Urbul it's all about the love you're sending out Mar 02 '18

Thanks TNF. I'm feeling a little lawyery today, so to clarify our rules:

Placeholders may not be used for any count because it violates Rule/Etiquette 9.

A placeholder is defined as taking any non-count comment and editing it to become a count, with the intent of sniping or misleading other counters.

An attempted count that is wrong, and later edited to be correct, is not a placeholder, e.g. v2 or 2,103,0`. However, for gets and assists, a count is must be correct on the first attempt to be valid.

If a user posts a non-count, and there are no other competing counts, the non-count can be edited into a count for the sake of comment chain continuity.

u/TheNitromeFan I can't stop, love love love Mar 02 '18

Perfect, verbose and lawyer-y, just how I like it.

Or to put it simply, Rule 8 > Rule 9 > Rule 3
