I beleive that there is a 4 post max rule that Scott has spoken about
in the past
it had been 2 for a long time.. then members asked for more...
too much FA/FS is classless

the rule limiting daily posts seems to be invoked by members (not
scott, the room owner) when someone disgruntled obejects to the
content of a posting. yet, i didn't read freeman's criticism for
the number of my posts today, but, rather, his disagreement with the
content of my posting.
scott has discussed this. the spirit of MOPO appears to allow
members to comment to a thread. considering the magnitude of
interest in the heritage auction, several different threads
evolved. comments included that unbacked, unrestored posters get
premium prices. freeman didn't like my confirmation of this
belief. so he made a stupid, knee jerk reaction to me, personally,
in this public forum.. the Limit Rule is to avoid repetition of the
same thoughts, and addresses advertisement. I did neither. Freeman
objected to the content of my post about unrestored posters, so he
tried to shoot the messenger.
in part, i responded to his grumpy approach because 4 people wrote
to me privately asking me if i saw his disparagement. since my
posting, several other members wrote to me privately showing their
agreement that his post was improper.

I always thought the 2 posts a day was relevant to the FA/FS posts,
and that other ON TOPIC posts were not limited, and OFF TOPIC posts
were tolerated up to a point amd provided they were marked OT.
However, as there are far more members than ever post, I presume we
can spread out the 2 post limit between those who can actually be
bothered taking an active role in discussion at all.
Scott, enquiring minds want to know?
Best,
Phil

Hi, all,
I want to preface this by saying that I consider Freeman a
friend of mine---he's as honorable a guy as I've ever met in my 25
or 30 years of movie poster collecting/dealing. On a couple of
occasions in the past, I myself was called on the carpet by the
group by making too many posts in one day--- I think the MoPo
rule, no matter what kind of post is TWO. I notice lately that
some members make as many as 1/2 a dozen or more posts in one 24
hour period. Apparently, nobody's going after these members for
breaking the rules, as they went after me a year ago. I certainly
don't condone the harshness of Freeman's comments. Nevertheless, I
think if there is a standard rule about number of posts per day,
then it should be adhered to by everyone. Tell me, has the rule
changed? I'd surely like to know.
