| | A little late, but before you guys take chunks out of the Board's local bimbo's backside, it is an inside joke, and more true than ever now, which is part of the reason for my primary lurking status on GB.
Yes, CE, as long as people can see their own profiles, this will happen because of determination either to make themselves look good in front of the mods or to swell themselves with pride. IMO, of course, I leave these matters to the shrink. Don't worry, I got it without the smilie.

On the other hand, if changing it is too much trouble and can cause problems, leave it as it is. It's no big deal.
Anyway, people should judge you by what you write and not how many times you have posted. But sometimes it may be the only criteria one has when deciding upon other's suggestions. (i'm not sure i make sense, i hope so  )

(i'm not sure i make sense, i hope so  ) | Agreed on all fronts. Just leave the current configuration as it is, if changing it will cause quite a lot of problems on the site. As for the second paragraph, I also agree too. The contents of the individual's post should be more important rather than the number of posts. Be it one with few or many post, if he/she writes in a level-headed manner, I will respect that poster.

| | | I just want to remind everyone that this poll is in fact closed, and that the majority, during the time the poll was taken, opted to maintain the existing status quo.
If enough people demonstrate an interest in reopening this discussion I will let Buck know. I'm not certain, though, how amenable he'd be to revisiting the debate.
