I am probably going to come across as a stick in the mud for this suggestion but here goes.

Can we implement a rule limiting the amount of reposts in the photo sharing section. I know of another photography site that has a two repost limit and it makes for a much cleaner read of the post. I think some folks abuse the system here as a means to " legally " bump their posts to keep them in the mix. I also realize others are just trying to be courteous by acknowledging comments but there are some members who would give Oscar acceptance speeches a run for their money. Using the multi-quote feature should be stressed in the stickies or rules and would suffice to eliminate what I think is unnecessary clutter. I also acknowledge I have probably been guilty of this myself at times but I have made a point to try to limit my replies unless asked technical questions about a respective photo. I further realize with a forum of this size the mods probably have more pressing issues and it would be up to the members to police themselves.

Steps off his soap box.

It's an interesting idea,. I don't know if Vbulletin has a setting for a set number of allowed replies..

We do have a policy, POTN-wide, that bumping is not allowed. Feel free to report gratuitous bumps.
