About this community, and what is to come…

I had an idea for a neat community. You know the 1984 meme, where people will call 1984 at the slightest hint of imposed authority? Well, what if I made a sublemmy all about being banned for arbitrary reasons.

My idea for this community: weekly, a new rule would be added to the community, replacing an older one. These would be arbitrary things such as “posts must start with a %” or “images are not allowed”. Then, the community would be moderated by a bot, scanning new posts for violating these rules. A Big-Brother-Bot if you will.

If you have been caught violating the rules, you are banned from the community until the next rule is added (so weekly unbans).

The idea is that it's a challenge to create a post conforming to all the rules. It should feel rewarding managing to post without receiving an instant ban. You can then always try again next week, if you do fail.

Apart from that gimmick, the community would allow anything to be posted, whether news, memes, etc (as long as they follow site rules of course).

This sublemmy will remain locked until I have written the bot. I’m hoping that will only take a week or two. Would appreciate help from anyone with more experience in that area. If you have any ideas/suggestions, please leave them below. I would also like to gauge interest in this idea, if people aren’t really interested in the idea, I may not go ahead with it. Just thought it could be a cool community premise.
