Posting Limit?

How about a posting limit, especially for newbies?

The average person with anything interesting to say,
probably makes about 5 or 6 posts a day.

In contrast the main forum is full of people on junk
posting sprees to get their sig files seen.

Most of these are one line junk posts bumping old threads.

Isn't it time the forum was used for what it was meant for?

    Hmm... I kind of like the way it's currently handled. On a case by case basis. Must we have rules about every single thing, EVERYWHERE? Police yourself. Police each other. One of the things I enjoy about this place.

    Instead of posting limit, maybe we can make a delay between post for newbies..
    Say about 30seconds or 45seconds

    What if someone's not the "average" person?

    And what if that statistic is completely wrong?

    And it's just getting worse.
    One posting spree after another.
