If posting things said on lesswrong or OB or from HPMOR aren’t in scope, it seems a little odd things said in HPMOR discussion on a forum run by you that doesn’t happen to be those two is.
The idea of the rule is to not have this thread be an echo chamber for LessWrong and Yudkowsky quotes. As a sister site, Overcoming Bias falls under the same logic (though I think, given that the origin of LessWrong in OvecomingBias constantly becomes more distant in time, I wouldn’t mind that rule getting relaxed for OvercomingBias more recent entries.)
But either way, I haven’t seen that many lesswrong members participate in “hpmor/reddit” or that many hpmor/reddit members participate in lesswrong, so I think it makes sense to NOT ban hpmor/reddit quotes from this thread...

We succeeded in getting rid of the Overcoming Bias ban for several months a couple of years ago. Unfortunately someone reverted to an old version and since then it’s stuck. Traditions are a nuisance to change.

If I make this post next month, I’ll get rid of the ban. Should that also mean Robin Hanson is fair game?
[Edit] I realized that waiting was silly since I made this month’s. It’s not clear to me whether or not Hanson quotes should be fair game, though; with the current policy, quoting gems from the comments (like NotEnoughBears’s quote) works but we shouldn’t get deluged by Hanson quotes.
