People don't always agree with each other.
Frustration runs high and people get upset when communication fails to go through for whatever reasons, or when meanings get twisted. I am afraid that you haven't really got (sometimes even misunderstood) the points from the no-OMNI-counting camp (please see some of the responses:
Post #456;
Post #552;
Post#561 ). Glad to hear your research is not finished and you are willing to listen though.

(Bolding mine)
I thought
Randy had spoken on this very issue already? Why ask those who had voiced their opinions to repeat themselves over and over again? Just to give a summary?
Besides, it won't be fair for either party if they don't get the chance to answer the same question, right? I would think any TB member who hasn't formed an opinion and is openly seeking for members input would have asked both pro-count and against-count parties the same question.
UNLESS,
Punki, you've already seen "a clear and concise post" that has stated the "clear, specific, cognitive, comprehensible, reason that they do believe OMNI posts should count"? If so, may I ask which post is it? TIA!

BTW, CC posts don't count.
Technically, a post is not a post and all posts are not equal in our FT world at this point. I am all for principles and consistency. First, we have to be very clear on what are our principles. If "consistency" in post counts shall be implemented, another TB motion should be in place. Don't we have a modest proposal from last year on post counts that hasn't been moved yet? @:-)
