At tom911's figures below show, some lucky folks appear to have wayyyy too much time on their hands,

Good for them. I wish I did.

But folks like my dear friend Alex posting near 20,000 times in just ONE totally mindless counting thread is just absurd if those posts count to an overall tally - which they have so far.

And what % of posts from these ~15,000 below (counting up and down from 100,000) did drbond make outside OMNI I wonder? I seem to recall in our last debate reading near zero. That is not adding to miles and points knowledge to anyone.

I do not recall ever seeing member szg post anywhere on FT that I have visited, yet note he/she has 16,422 posts in just 3 threads below. The mind boggles as what his/her total post count is.

A simple posting bot could acheive the same ends and not add a bean of info to FT on miles and points.

We could have 1000 bots posting 10000 posts a day .. would that assist FT in any way?

Folks with weeks ans months of spare time to killl can do what they like with it on such threads - just from now on it will not count to absolutely massive post totals. Sounds fair, and is years overdue.
