Um, no thanks. That would mean I'd have to =read= all those messages. Doesn't take me
long to determine if a thread is worth my time. After that, I bail on it.
Who would count the five posts per person? And if you only wrote one post on a
particular day, would your other four then roll over to the next day? Seems to me it
would be much easier to just not contribute to an "off list" thread than it would to
remember how many posts you've written over the course of a day.
Let me quote something from a recent post I sent to the list:
The PDML is about Pentax and Photography and Pentax Photography. It is
not about politics, abortion, religion, gun control, or other hot button
issues, except where they overlap with Pentax, Photography, and/or Pentax
Photography. Example: "Here is a link to a photo I took at the NRA
convention, where the President and the Pope were addressing a group of
women demonstrating for abortion rights. I took it with my Pentax camera and
Pentax lens. What do you think of the composition?"
If there are those among you who disagree with this, please let me know.
