Hm. Not sure what any of this has to do with the topic. On a site such as this, there are surely rules on how many posts per minute constitute spam. if .44 posts per minute is suspicious, how many posts is one reasonably free to make without rousing suspicion? How does one determine the limits of freedom without testing them? Surely this site is not claiming 100% freedom of speech, but the limits are quite grey as far as i can tell. I'm sure you love your job at Poal and are trying to do your best by your bosses, but to a new user this seems pretty heavy handed. Still you guys know your site the best. Thanks again buddy. I think you got me pointed in the right direction.
