Suppression: I'd be interested in hearing some usage cases for lots of RMB suppressions in a hurry. The throttle is predicated on the idea that non-invaders don't need to do that.

From my personal anecdotal experience the suppression throttle is an occasional problem for ROs who have to deal with prolific rmb spammers that moderation won't take action against. There is also the occasional issue in unfucking the rmb as a defender, but the trade-off of not having 100s or 1000s of posts to unsuppress is more than worth it imo. I don't think the throttle itself is a problem, but the allowance it gives could sure do to be a little bigger.
Or perhaps ROs who have served for a significant amount of time should have a larger allowance. I've served as a communications RO in Lazarus for 195 days, it can probably be safely assumed that I'm not raiding the region.

Also rather goes against the whole "My region's WA Delegate is an evil dictator who abuses her power! Make her stop! Delegates are elected: If you don't like yours, it's up to you to get that nation unelected! Delegates are free to use and abuse their power as they see fit." thing in the FAQ.
I don't think very many invaders routinely mass suppress posts anyway.
If you wanted to prevent abuse here, why not just require a small amount of influence cost?

Does the throttle applies to both suppression and unsuppression now? I haven't had too much experience unsuppressing posts after the change, but I remember at the time that unsuppression was yet to be throttled. If it isn't throttled, it should be.

AFAIK, the throttle still only applies to suppressions, and we were planning to keep it that way. Why do you think unsuppression should also be throttled?
Making the throttle equally inconvenient to both raiders and defenders was already discussed and decided not to be sufficient reason. RMBs are meant to be used for conversation, not giant walls of suppressed posts.

It's a good idea. I've known founders to re-found their regions rather than mass unsuppress an RMB following invader griefing.
