This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Some sort of loose restraint so they can't rear back maybe?

Probably the same reason humans wear seat belts on an airplanes... prevents them from hitting the ceiling when the plane does a barrel role.
