I think if you post too many times in a 24 hour period. You posting privileges
should be revoked for 24 hours. Until you learn how to not behave like children.

Forum fights make those involved look bad, and they are useless.

I think it's bad when 30-35% of all forum posts are coming from one person
and adding ZERO value(Speaking today of the 50 posts that pop up when I log in).

It could be a time out period.

Would vote no.
Reading every post is a choice.
'too many' is very subjective and sometimes the forum has a quiet day.
On such days it's easy for someone or few to fill the forum with posts.

I agree. Let's limit everyone to no more than 5 posts per day and no more
than one post per hour (with a max of 5 per day). And let's ban all of the
top ten posters and anyone else who accounts for more than 1% of all forum posts.

Your response is exactly why you should step away from the forum. It was a tongue
in cheek post highlighting how you feel the need to respond to EVERYTHING adding
value or not.

Take a break man. I'm not sure who you are (or think you are) impressing
with your opinions, but it appears I am not the only one who thinks its getting
old.

And for the record, there are others who egg this on just as much. But why not
just step back hold your comments.

It was a tongue
in cheek post highlighting how you feel the need to respond to EVERYTHING adding
value or not.

Hopefully the Development team can distinguish between real and tongue-in-cheek
suggestions.

No worries, as long as all suggestions are completely ignored they don't
need to distinguish between anything

i did not read this as being tongue in cheek.

If it was intended to be so, then it came across as a bit harsh.

How is that gonna work? Say I had questions about international shipping or something,
I can't wait another hour to ask my question. People can't sit down waiting
for an hour to post. This is a forum. If you don't want that many posts,
don't post yourself. I voted no.

My post was tongue in cheek. I am glad you voted no. That was my purpose in posting
what I did.

Your method of measurement, to determine childish behavior and quality of posts,
is not logical.

Just because you see a current correlation, does not make the measurement valid
for future use.

It was tongue in cheek guys. Not serious, merely highlighting how some need a
time out.

You forgot the obligatory wink or smiling face,it's always taken as serious
if you don't.

If you don't want to read a specific person's posts, just ignore them.
