In the spirit of the Ancient Greek Agora, we invite you to join our vibrant community - a contemporary meeting place for the exchange of ideas, inspired by the practices of old. Just as the Agora served as the heart of public life in Ancient Athens, our platform is designed to be the epicenter of meaningful discussion and thought-provoking dialogue.

Here, you are encouraged to speak your mind, share your insights, and engage in stimulating discussions. This is your opportunity to shape and influence our collective journey, just like the free citizens of Athens who gathered at the Agora to make significant decisions that impacted their society.

You're not alone in your quest for knowledge and understanding. In this community, you'll find support from like-minded individuals who, like you, are eager to explore new perspectives, challenge their preconceptions, and grow intellectually.

Remember, every voice matters and your contribution can make a difference. We believe that through open dialogue, mutual respect, and a shared commitment to discovery, we can foster a community that embodies the democratic spirit of the Agora in our modern world.

Well, title says it clear. We might need some condition to prevent trolls from creating a lot of accounts and taking over whole instance. I'd like to discuss ideas for this. Like, amount of days on instance could work, but I'm not sure if it would work out very well. Anyway, please share your opinions on this whole subject.

EDIT: There's a lot of opinions, but, at least for me, looks like whatever system we'll come up with, it will either be based on time from account creation or on activity(or maybe both). Correct me if i wrong.

This all isn't happening immediately. It'll be debated for a good while, and then voted on, and then it'll take some work to actually implement assuming it passes. No one's going to go through everyone's account individually to verify their vote, we'll need a bot for that.

Also, I don't think 2 weeks is that long at all. The vast majority of everyone's time on this instance they will be eligible for voting. I really don't see why 2 weeks when they first make an account is such a huge amount.
