It's easy to rack up over 100 posts during a in game thread when there's a half dozen posters or so. Hopefully, common sense will prevail for those situations.

        What some of you are saying is that you see posts from people you don't like and don't want to see them any more. That is kind of selective.

          9,135 posts since 10-13-09 (it's probably jumped 100 or so while I'm typing)

          I don't think I've had 9,135 total thoughts since 10-13-09.

          I haven't been here long (although I've been lurking) but this is ridiculous by any standard. This poster needs a timeout. Maybe a warning or two then a suspension would cause some to rethink their strategy. I think an overall post limit across the board would be the wrong way to go. As many of you have stated there are legitimate reasons (in game post, etc.) why a poster could rack up some posts but unless you bet on Todd Palin and are following the iditarod by the second there is no way you rack up anywhere near that total.

            I hope the bash doesn't have comps for people with a high post count, but instead rewards steady posting over an extended period of time. The spammers should not be rewarded (for the pre-power poster 5/10 era)

              I like the "Limit to one reward per 30 days" idea from a couple of pages back :

                      The trick will be not to get on PowerPoster5. No one will be put on it for joining in legit discussion of in game threads. A guy will be put on it if they are drowing out good threads.

                      And to be clear, Power Posters are people too! We will try hard to be fair but the move will be to promote quality over quanity.

                                Changing anything on account of whatsgood5 actions, is only feeding the guys image that he is so much seeking. I actually believe people on the extreme are good for here, and people need not be jealous of them. What was suppost to be a debate soon fell into a lynching. Alot of people here said leave alone as all was well. If indeed anything needs to be done then restricting number of 25 point bonuses per month is a fine idea.

                                  Maybe you don't power post anymore, but a high percentage of your posts make no fukking sense still.

                                        He can pass me today if he wants I can easily kick it into high gear again and blow him away.Power posting is not worth it if SBR does not pay you to do it WG5 will soon find that out sooner or later or before the carpal tunnel sets in.

                                          So you were really expecting to be paid?

                                                No points for milestones. Just give everyone 200 points on the last day of the month regardless of posts.

                                                      I like this idea.

                                                        If they do this, they should have had to have logged in and made a post everyday or something like that.

                                                          No way, what if you are out of town for 1 day, log in 29 outta 30 days. You don't get your 200 points because you miss 1 day???

                                                            Id say max 10 posts a day. That way people will really try to make them count.

                                                              Why? The idea is to limit the amount of junk posts. Why would you force someone to log in everyday and post a useless post like good morning or good luck?
