> I personally think the restrictions on the newbie board are foolish. I understand *perhaps* having a board where newbies feel encouraged to post, but to limit the number of replies they can get seems foolish almost beyond measure, and makes me really want to be a fly on the grey matter of Dr. Bob's brain.
Ah. I think it may be to prevent 'trolls' or 'flamers' picking on the newbies. To make sure they get a nice greeting. The way around 'limiting the number of posts' is for everyone to join on up as a newbie greeter!
Come on, the more the merrier :-)
