So how many posts would be OK with the BF Patrol here? 20K? 15K? Should we have posting limits?
The next thing you'll tell me is you want to limit my BF compensation to $250K a year. That would be the last straw for me. I'd go start my own Hedge Fund Forum if that ever happened.

Nice try patent boy. I've had real problems in my life, your lame "sense of humor" doesn't even register. Like I said earlier - Jerry Lewis was popular too.

Are you so obtuse to assume that your problems are the only real ones, or is it that you know enough about the person you've directed that statement to that you can make a judgement on current or past problems he may have had?

Even the "Clean Up the Roadie Forum" stickie ends up like this. How cool is that?

Should this really be a sticky? I just wasted 10 minutes reading this thing and here's what I conclude...some people like it the way it is, some people want it to change. How many different ways can we post this that it should be a sticky?

Nope, I don't think its the same on all the other forums. Only here.
And what has changed? Think of it as your favorite hangout suddenly becoming the place to be for a handful of rowdy frat boys. Everything else is still cool but those obnoxious frat boys just won't shut up.

Just saying.

I disagree. Slashdot, another huge forum that I (and surely others here) frequent, has tons of people clamoring about how good it was in the past when it was a super small forum to discuss the "year of the Linux desktop" and safely ask questions about using Linux and such (when it was a MUCH harder OS to get up and running on the desktop).
Just saying.
