More rules may come as the community grows, but for now, I'll remove spam or anything obviously mean-spirited, and leave it at that.

It looks a bit "spotted". Is that normal or need I do something about it?

When someone says "season it" or "re-season it" I usually interpret that as add another coat. Not a full strip and redo.

A lot of the cast iron groups are super into "gotta strip it and to properly get it seasoned"
