I request that the guidlines for the General Discussion forum be modified to indicate that members may only initiate one non-TDI related thread per day (for this forum only).

This will prevent one or two members from dominating this forum, and will hopefully raise the level of the discourse.

sounds good to me! we have had examples where certain members have from 5-10 "active" threads on the same day/page. no names, but RW,PS, and SP come to mind

Why would you want to raise the level of discourse???

This is the most sensible response to the GD problems I have heard so far.
Don't know if the technology can be set up?
I commend this idea to the house.

Why don't we each try that? Ric, I remember you even asking about this... so lets try to contain and moderate ourselves... What do you say?

and again Ric shows with true colors. i did not count the times he posted twice a day last week but he has started fresh this week with two posts in one day.

Fred, can we start the lashings now?
