Posts per week...

What if we were only allowed one new post per week? Of course I'm biased; I hardly ever start a new post, but it seems like there's a lot of meaningless posts by the same individual several times in a single day...it might enrich the site if people actually had to think before they posted...?

Of course I still favor a free-for-all on replies...

I take it you mean a limit on people starting new threads?

Personally, I think it's a great idea.

I thought there was already a limit of 4 per day per person. If so, I don't see the need to limit it even more.

Everything is limited around here. I think this joint should loosen up a bit. You can't flame anyone - even people who deserve it. There's an orgnote limit of 20, that is far too easy to meet every day, and, if you have a really inspiring day and want to post more than 4 threads, you can't!

Hell, you can't even talk about masturbation without some crazy prude orgnoting a moderator.

Hey, that's hippy talk! Time for a good ol' fashioned hippy ass-whomping! biggrin

I'm not sure the reasons behind the Orgnote limit. It might have something to do with just stopping people abusing the facility. That's the thing - you have to expect every possible service provided to abused by some moron sometime.

Also, it is very reasonable to want to put a bottleneck on the bandwidth usage (by limiting Orgnotes etc) because you guys aren't the one's paying the hosting fees, bandwidth costs etc.

You better not do any ass-whomping! That could constitute for flaming. Though I would love to have a flame war with you. It could be fun. Maybe in orgnotes sometime, eh? biggrin

Anyways, you're right. Damn that 2the9s. He abuses orgnotes! evil

And, as for paying for all of this. Hell, you're all rich wink Matthew's going to be one of those, you know, lawyers. I should like it if he'd adopt me soon.
