Consider limits on thread starts

I just spend a little time posting this warning in about 20 new topics started by www.iflyswa.com:

ALERT -- In the span of a few minutes, the original poster has started around 20 threads posting similar requests for information and opinions. Perhaps he/she is sincerely interested in getting answers to these questions, but be aware of this before you spend time helping out this FTer with your thoughts and expertise.

I believe this person was pulling a prank. It's bound to happen again. To avoid this in the future, please consider imposing a daily limit on the number of threads someone can start -- 3-5, perhaps? Maybe more for long-time FTers.
