Could idea.
But I'm wondering...
Could it be lengthened to: the first 6 years a person is on the site ?
Is there really a valid reason for anyone to start more than 3 threads in a 24 hour period??? | |

I agree with that one hundred per cent!
I've often wondered why would anyone have the need, or the time even, to have more than one or two threads going on at once ....definitely something to think about, huh?

Before I read your post I was thinking the same thing. Why the six days ?
So all someone has to do is create a profile and wait 6 days. But if the only place that this new rule is mentioned is here, not very many people will know about the change unless they are regulars who scan the whole forum. | |

I recommended the first 6 Decades ... lol

Yup, merely an Inconvenience ...
A cap on the number of threads a user can start in a given time period would certainly make people consider long and hard before starting some of the more frivolous threads we see on the forums.
I hope Admin gives your suggestion some consideration.

Because we enjoy the attention ...or it maybe because my brain goes 100 miles an hour and I am a woman and can multi task?....or its because we like the attention?...did I say that twice?....

| Is there a Shortage of Threads in that Category where your Post could not be posted to an existing one? |
This is not applicable to certain or specific Forum Categories anyhow, but a Ration for each Poster daily, kinda like Foodstamps

| The first Date is Pacific Standard Time, the second your own Time Zone. You had 26 Minutes left before you could post. |
By Midnight here, another 3 Hours of your Post above, the Server will reset and you should be able to post, as you would have exceeded the 72 Hour Waiting Period.
