I bet they pay him royalties in triplicate for appropriating the Hessian look.

The new 3 consecutive post limit rule should be improved as it seems to suffer from a bit of overreach in it's current form. I understand the idea of limiting the number of consecutive posts that one member may leave in another member's thread in order to try to reduce the problem of spamming, however where I feel that we have a problem is in the fact that a member is blocked from his ( or her ) own threads after leaving 3 consecutive posts. This seems to be a case of overkill because when a member starts and monitors threads of their own they should then have unlimited access to their own threads. Please have your rules committee re-examine this rule with a view to making some improvements in the rule.

   ---   My 1st post in this thread was my idea for an improvement to the rule ( & Thanks a lot for the new posts ).

   ---   Yup improvements are indeed needed  lol.

   ---   To repeat myself yet again the main problem with the 3-post rule is in regards to the member's own threads IE the threads that the member has created. I cannot understand why the 3-post rule has not been modified, that is to say I have started some threads here and I should have unlimited access to my threads, very very simple really. ( & Thanks for the bumps ).

What if instead of having a static 3 post rule we made it a sliding scale with an upvote / downvote system.  Players with a certain % upvotes could post up to 10 times and players with a certain % downvotes could post as little as once every other time and not start their own threads?  

   ---   Interesting idea. My feeling is that any member who starts up a new thread should have unlimited access to their own thread. The thought that a persons might spam their own thread is of course rather silly.

And a bump.

Agreed; I don't know who made this rule but it shouldn't be.
