I'm not entirely sure if this is the best solution and here is why - I only have 1 or 2 posts, haven't been counting, because I'm a lurker and don't have any content to add. But I'm sure that there are plenty of people just like me who have 5 posts, but they spam up the boards with "thank you" messages.

I consider "thank you" messages, especially from people who leave them all the time, to be spam clogging up the board. They add extra pages and for people with slower connections, they get only one video per page (sometimes none) over a 17-page thread, in the most extreme cases. No one reads the thank yous except for the poster - and if the person doing the thanking is truly that sincere, then they should thank on a one-on-one basis, by email or so forth so the rest of us doesn't have to skim over it.

I don't think it's being ungrateful to speak so bluntly, because I'm glad that people who have the time and resources find all this great content. Some of us don't post content here, for whatever reason, and if you penalize us I guess we'll go find something else. This board was created, it seems, because there were problems with the E_N_F group. Over there, the posters didn't get so angry towards the rest of the members. Now this site is getting into similar problems, and I guess us lurkers will just move elsewhere, again.

Delete the post if you prefer, but thanks for making me forget about Yahoo Groups for a couple months.
