      There should be a rule where someone actually has to explain it as if they were explaining it to a 5-year-old.

        That’s how the sub started. Answers were broken down into the most basic of analogies, it was great. But like most big subs, the rules got lax and it lost what made it special.

        In my opinion, stricter posting rules make for a better communityas long as they’re not arbitrary.
