People can judge the "worthyness" of your postings based on the content.... but not by how many/often you have posted.....

Obviously this can be ignored - because I am "Not worth....."

I motion we remove the content of posts as well, on average nothing much will be lost.

I would like to say the mods are wonderful. After all it is a free forum.
