How about a rec/unrec ration for each poster?
We each get x number of recs or unrecs per day? week? month?

I am cracking up at all the threads on it, and wanted to get in on the fun.

5. You missed "UnDemocrat." What's up with that? Freudian slip?
This IS the underground. You could be stoned for that.

7. I think "real Democrat" is the usual verbiage employed by the locksteppers.

6. How about a limit of starting 3 threads a day?
Everyone dances around the real problem: we have a number of posters who will start a new thread on a topic when there are already a dozen such threads on the board, and the only reason they do that is self aggrandizement.

Want to limit stupid threads? Ration thread starting.

8. That worked well in the Primaries.
I think the quality went up significantly.

9. I agree. That worked well. Some people like to start too many threads.
Any time I see the same name appear too many times as a thread starter, I wonder how anyone can look at the board and think "I know there are 27 threads on this topic already, but MINE isn't there yet!"
