... all the time which is where it gets tricky. Statistics aren't on your side. If you have a large group, chances raise that someone will be offended by a certain post. If you have many posts, that raises chances further. It's not really linear since the involved agents don't feel the same way all the time. The video link which I posted explains the effect in more detail. Which is why forum software for large groups has a voting feature. If people downvoted a thread many times, you know (without reading a single message) that it's a trollfest already. This works better because people don't get worked up to begin with: Too few people actually read a post to start a flamewar. Hence my suggestion :-) Regards, -- Aaron "Optimizer" Digulla a.k.a.
