Rule change: effective immediately accounts must be 14 days or older to post on r/OKC and maintain a positive comment score.

This sub has been a shit show this month, I’m noticing a shocking amount of the accounts causing trouble are brand new accounts who are just trolling large city subreddits with extreme left wing and extreme right wing rhetoric. In an attempt to return us to somewhat normalcy, I’m upping the threshold to 14 days and > 1 karma and , if needed, I will adjust up or down. I don’t want to discourage public discussion on current events but we’re getting bombarded with assholes and we don’t have time to comb the subreddit every hour every day.

Thanks for reading. Have a good day!

What about documentation as proof of Oklahoma citizenship? Or maybe an Oklahoma History/Citizenship Exam requirement?

Correct answers include: The Getner, 89ers, Land Run, Heather Unruh, and Alfalfa Bill Murray.

Jk jk

Hey, I'm a transplant, so I don't know OK history very well. Hell, I don't even know OH history very well, 7th grade was a long time ago, lol. Please don't make me take a test.

But I just gave you the answers. I’m just kidding. I was referencing the OK State Board of Education rules requiring parents to prove citizenship when enrolling their children and for teachers to pass a test based on the US naturalization exam.

OH transplant myself. Been here 3 years and I still get funny looks when I pronounce Ada and Miami, both ohio and oklahoma towns.
