The post-inflating barn door has been opened long enough and in enough places here on FT that I don't see that restoring post count in the OMNI's...the most popular forum on FT....is going to make a whole lot of difference in the scheme of things.

This is a motion that, while I favor it somewhat, is not a major issue for me. I rarely ever post in the OMNI's but I do make note of comments from the regulars there and this seems to be something that most favor.

So since I really don't care a lot one way or the other but am aware of a number of folks who favor it, my plans are to vote in favor of the motion.
