At least it's only three words at a time - instead of pictures.

Surely you are not serious? This is extremely important to many, I mean, do you not recall all the "congratulations on your X,000th post" threads over at that other place? Stuff like this does not matter to me, and I think that shows in what I think is a low post count for me, given how long I have been here, but for many on the internerd, posts are currency..

DT needs some cleaning. I consider myself a DT denizen, and it is out of control. There is no longer enjoyment in there for me.

I really like this. No idea how to implement it though.

The unintended and perverse result may be that these guys will also carpet bomb the main forums just to stay afloat, diluting even more the rest of SF, and increasing the used bandwith and storage.

Yeah. This is a bad idea. I wouldn't mind if DT didn't effect post count though. Honestly though, post counts are pretty silly. Another forum that I belong to has totally disabled post counts. It does help prevent post whoring.

My postcount got deleted after the "great crash". My real postcount is like 2,000 higher.

"It's been over 50 years since WWII ends, victors had their laughs and wrote history. Get the **** over with this **** and move on...anyone that's going against them will be conveniently labeled anti-semantic." http://www.styleforum.net/showpost.p...8&postcount=18 I don't think I've ever played this card before, but what he wrote is unacceptable and a shows a pattern in posting in regards to everything from minorities, to gays, to jews.

I can confidently state vitaminc is one of our most anti-semantic posters.
