You aren't alone here, but I, personally, hate tales. You like it, I don't. But some do. I don't. But-

I didn't know it was a rule. When I checked the guidelines it only showed half of the rules, which I think was a bug. You could've explained it to me though-

No!

Why?

what is going on man i leave for a couple hours and this thread is just full of "No!" and "Why?"

Because they for some reason refuse to elaborate and i'm trying to figure out why.

well, it's not really a guideline rule but more as an unwritten rule.. consistent pings can sometimes flood inboxes and such and it might set back notifications, making it harder to see

is that good enough of an elaboration ? (>,<)

Yes, Thank you! But does it matter if the person being pinged doesn't mind it?

How would you know? If they SAY yes, then it's fine. If they say nothing, then don't ping them.

Well, they replied and didn't tell me to stop so idk.
