That's a rather unwieldy policy to implement. Reddit's submission process is based on the quality of what you post. For example, if you have minus X points, then time limitations are imposed. Otherwise, if everything is deemed to be of good quality, it doesn't matter (to the website).
Anyway, I'm being called out here, but I think a user like this is far more suspicious:

You're not being called out, I had this planned a at least 6 months ago and had a method stub in place all this time. I think this change will cause more diversity and more positive effects than negative.

As mod of /v/usnews, I'd like to encourage folks to try to organize and prioritize submissions. I see lots of usnews in both news and worldnews and now that there are limits, I am posting more of it there myself. If you get blocked at news or worldnews and the content is relevant to usnews, please come on over and post something there. Imo, 5 is too few posts (for newsy types it's a big world, especially if there is an attempt to not duplicate content already posted elsewhere) per account. Also, with respect to speed of posting- I like to read a bunch of articles and then post them all at once. I'm a very fast reader, that should be considered and just because someone posts many articles in a short time doesn't mean they are not quality content, or the poster has not read them.
