I posted this moveset question: https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/401926/what-is-a-good-lc-moveset-for-venipede while the site explicitly states that you cannot post a moveset question, this question stayed. Why?

I forgot when we stopped allowing non-experts to post LC moveset questions.

To combat this, if any mod or editor feels that there are too many moveset questions being asked, we will hide or close some and then reshow or reopen them later in an attempt to stagger them and prevent them from being obnoxious.

I would also advise that in the future you ask a mod or expert in advance to posting an LC thread to avoid it being hidden in the case of there being too many. It'll just save time.

From here

This eventually led to this post, the reason we stopped having users ask these. Essentially, too many of them were being posted too close to each other. This isn't really the case lately as site activity has dwindled, so I don't think any staff member cares if regular users post them in moderation and with good sense. This is subject to change if it starts getting overbearing again.
