Typically. For example, on reddit you can run this in console to downvote everything on a comment thread:

$.each($(".down.arrow"), function(index, vote){ $(vote).click(); });

This won't down vote everything. Votes get throttled, so I guess a setTimeout has to be used.

They also explicitly state that you are to make no more than 30 requests/minute[1], or restated, no more than once every 2 seconds.

That's for the API. I don't think the official web site counts.

They also mention Greasemonkey scripts, which is functionally the same as running script from your console, so I believe it'd still apply.

Either way, it's probably a good guide to follow if nothing else -- I mean, reddit still has near-daily capacity issues.

Just curious, is there any reason you used `$.each` instead of `$(".down.arrow").each`?

[k3n]

Protip: you don't even need an each() at all[1].

So the above could be written:

$(".down.arrow").click();

seems like the more functional-style way of doing it
