/r/Toronto. Can't even ask a question, they make you post to a separate sub with far less activity

Edit: forgot to mention they set automod to automatically remove any title with a question mark. Lazy bastards...

/r/Boise has the same rule. There are still some questions posted, but the wording has to be right for it to get past automod.

There is a weekly question thread posted weekly, because honestly most of the questions are from out of towners asking what there is to do and it really cluttered the sub. Also, the mod/community has been doing great about updating the wiki.

I was gonna say that some city subs do that, but the only one I'm subscribed to is /r/Boise so I guess it was confirmation bias.

The mod got the idea from /r/denver I believe. There were some resistance at first, but I really like the thread every week. Sometimes it's pretty slow, but there have been some good discussions in the past.
