[question] who else thinks this sub should implement a rule against posting watch ID requests multiple time if at all? (alien.top)

From what I typically see on the sub most of them could be answered with a very simple Google search and a little bit of effort yet 80% of the sub is these types of posts. Almost all of those 80% are people that already know that their watch is fake, or that they could do a little bit of research and find out for themselves. Not trying to be unfriendly or unwelcoming of new people to the watch world but I feel like the sub should be more about appreciating watches and less about enabling people to be lazy.

If the mods were more active they could make a thread for these things. I enjoy seeing people getting a new watch, having actual questions about a watch or try to get a diverse opinion on their collection. I love it when I see a post where people get their first Swiss watch or their first luxury what ever… but then I scroll further and I see the most obvious, obnoxious piece of shit I’ve ever seen. I’m not even sure what these people try to accomplish but to ruin the day of others.
