Very well put. And I'm sure many of us could dig up examples where somebody's very first post was a doozy. Meanwhile, I suspect imposing limits on new member posting might have a chilling effect on new membership to FlyerTalk. Sure, this might weed out some very sophomoric novice efforts, but it could also deter some promising newcomers. I, too, wish that everyone -- whether a newbie, a grizzled vet, or somewhere in between -- would make better use of the search function, but I think we all should be wary of artificial restrictions of newcomers, even though they sometimes vex us when they make their debuts.
