[BUG] CONTRIBUTING.md contradicts itself on issue-assignment and PR-rate limits

[shravanithouta108]

🐛 What's broken?

CONTRIBUTING.md contains two internal contradictions: it states different numbers for the same rules in different sections of the same file, and one of those numbers also disagrees with the live docs site.

---

📋 Steps to Reproduce

1. Open CONTRIBUTING.md: https://github.com/SAPTARSHI-coder/EaseMotion-css/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md
2. Read the "🕑 Issue Cooldown Rule" section near the top — it says "Maximum 25 active assigned issues per contributor."
3. Scroll down to the "Strict Repository Rules" table — it says "Issue Assignments: Max 2 active."
4. Read the "📢 Contribution Rate Limit Update" section — it says "Contributors may submit up to 150 PRs per day."
5. Scroll down to the same "Strict Repository Rules" table — it says "PR Rate Limit: Max 25 PRs/day."
6. Compare with the docs site: https://saptarshi-coder.github.io/EaseMotion-css/index.html#how-to-contribute — the table there matches the table values (Max 2 active issues, Max 25 PRs/day), not the numbers stated in the prose sections above them.

---

✅ Expected Behavior

CONTRIBUTING.md should state one consistent number for each rule, and that number should match the docs site.

---

❌ Actual Behavior

• Issue assignment limit: prose section says 25, table in the same file says 2.
• PR rate limit: prose section says 150/day, table in the same file says 25/day.
• The docs site only matches the table values, not the prose sections.

🔗 Reproduction

Not applicable — this is a documentation discrepancy, not a CSS/HTML bug. Compare the sections and table linked above directly within CONTRIBUTING.md.

<!-- N/A: no code reproduction needed for this documentation issue -->

🌍 Environment

Field	Value
EaseMotion CSS version	N/A (documentation only)
Browser	N/A
OS	N/A

---

Suggested fix: pick one correct value for each rule (recommend matching the "Strict Repository Rules" table and docs site: Max 2 active issues, Max 25 PRs/day) and update the prose sections to match, removing the contradiction.

Hey @shravanithouta108! 👋

Thanks for opening this issue — you've been auto-assigned to it.

Before you start coding, please read the quick checklist:

• Make sure no existing issue already covers this idea
• Read the Contribution Guide before opening a PR
• Add files only inside the submissions/ directory (e.g., submissions/examples/your-feature-name/ or submissions/docs/your-feature-name/)
• Include demo.html · style.css · README.md in your folder
• Max 25 active issues per contributor — unassign others before taking new ones
• Join our official Discord Server (Optional - for general developer chat and support; official issues belong on GitHub!)

🕑 Inactivity rule: Issues with no progress for 24 hours (1 day) will be unassigned and reopened for others.

The maintainer will review your PR once submitted. Good luck! ⚡

Thanks for the assignment! Starting work on this now — will update CONTRIBUTING.md so the prose sections match the "Strict Repository Rules" table (Max 2 active issues, Max 25 PRs/day), removing the internal contradiction. Will open a PR shortly.

✅ You're all set! You are already assigned to this issue, @shravanithouta108.

I opened a PR for this fix, but the automated validator closed it — I checked the workflow logs and it fails on 3 separate rules, all because the bot only accepts new submissions under submissions/ and doesn't allow editing any existing file outside a small whitelist (README.md, LICENSE, package.json, easemotion.css/min.css). CONTRIBUTING.md isn't on that whitelist, so any fix to it — however small — gets auto-rejected before a human ever reviews it.

Since this issue specifically asks for a CONTRIBUTING.md correction, could you let me know how you'd like this submitted? Happy to wait for manual merge, or follow a different process if there's an exception path for docs fixes like this.
