I must admit it has been weeks since I reposted anything with the tag. There was no problem back then. I hadn’t heard of the flagging, though.
Would be a shame..
Anyway, i agree that there are plenty of ways to repost older post without it actually being a literal repost. Different angles, quoting, repurposing content,... all are possibilities to get the same message through without being ‘punished’ for doing it
