It just brings up the error message of nothing being found (I can screencap it if you want). That's because you are not admin nor discussion mod in my wiki. No worries, I can access it ans check out the examples!

Do you really need users to provide you with a detailed example of why do we need multiple announcements? Aren't all the comments by users saying that they cannot work with one announcement ENOUGH?

Another example would be the Idea Wiki, there are always highlighted threads there, and more than 1 in the same day. How would they do the same with the stupid 1 announcement limit?

We do indeed need specific examples from communities that tried to make the limit work and found they couldn't. For one, changes tend to unsettle users in general, and prompts requests to go back to the way things were - even when the changes are altogether positive. If a user can give concrete examples for why something is a problem, we know they're not just complaining because they don't like change.

In addition, concrete examples will help us understand the exact issue users are having. Oftentimes, there is more than one way to solve a problem or to meet a need - and the more we know about what the problem is, the more effective our solution will be.

Thanks to everyone who shared specifics! I've passed those use cases on to the team so they can get a clearer picture of how the "1 at a time" might be holding communities back. Um, sorry, but I don't know how you need a specific detailed answer. Isn't it enough with saying "My community usually does more than 1 announcement on a week"? I agree with you.
