My vote is to reign in the few to reduce the toxic posting. They are readily recognized and easy to curtail.

Let's have the majority win one for a change!!

Some posts (and posters) annoy me, as I'm sure mine annoy others.

People would have to prioritize what they really feel is important and use their limited posts to convey that message. It would also cut down on the incessant bickering that we have going on right now.

We would also see far fewer wasted posts such as: Yep, Nailed It, Wow! I agree, etc.. That's what the Mods installed the "Thanks" function for.

As far as how many posts a day is appropriate? Maybe 15? Maybe more? Maybe less?

I know this site is monetarily driven by advertising and the more clicks they get the more they get paid. But if the current toxic atmosphere we're in right now were toned down maybe people would start coming back to the site and actually increase its traffic..

So what you are requesting is actually censorship. Let me say it again, do you want to censor the usage on these threads. TOMORROW!!!

I wonder if there are such people as Professional Posters. From my observation, it seems that a significant number of people post as if they were bored with everything else and have to find an escape. Then there are some who appear to be combative or rigidly aggressive about others who do not agree with them since :)they respond so much to so many forum statements.

I'd rather watch TV movies. At least they're fun.:)

I am surprised by the viciousness of the posts disagreeing with people.

If offended you can always not click. But no you would rather complain.

I certainly meant no offense. But don't you find it tiresome when someone states the same opinion ad nauseum up to 50 times a day? Heck, even if I agree with their position it gets old.

But my main focus was to try and reduce the toxic atmosphere we have right now. Right now this site is operating in the same vein as the old Political Forum..

I get that not everyone agree. That would be very boring, actually. I also don't want any limit on post amounts per day.
