Hmm... who really cares what the majority thinks about message or poster quality? If we assume that the majority of members are pinheads, then we would be encouraging that kind of messages. Assuming that pinheads can unite and agree on something. I would prefer a more aesthetic approach. Everyone that refuse to apply capitalization and/or punctuation should be banned. I would also ban those that include member names in the subject. Not to mention the folks incapable of even nominal spelling skills. I think the list can be expanded until the point where only the good guys are left. Regards, Mogens
