Winston, there are a lot of posters posting small, seemingly reasonable posts in order to establish themselves here. Maybe some of them are genuine. But we know most of them are just trying to get established here to take down the forum when the bad guys want to, right? This is the problem with not reading your own forum much. You can't see the patterns. You need to pro-actively counteract that in order for your forum to survive. I'm sorry, but this will involve you exercising judgement and doing stuff which you generally can't be bothered doing, but that's the way it is.
