You have been trying for years to get people to use the board as the rules state. They just won't. It just seems like an exercise in futlity. So the "nonsense" post bug me just as much as the "Hey that's off-topic" posts..
: : People get annoyed with others who post nonsense.
: : Why do they get annoyed?
: : Because they are taking up valuable boards space!
: : So what do they do?
: : Reply to the post..taking up even more valuable board space.
: : The irony is staggering...
: There is, after all, the simple fact that for people to UNDERSTAND how useless posting nothing-posts are via a little positive example and advice, everyonce in a while.
: I think it's the cats who just sort of... one-dimensionally mock anyone trying to improve this place through positive action, just to be clever are the ones who ACTUALLY overload the boards.
