Taro, this i will direct at you since you started  a thread on it, did you bother to look around, it won't take very long to find that there are numerous threads on the topic plus the sticky thread. Every new user thinks his udea is unique and has NEVER been talked about before, Is there a CDProfiler?
There is very little new under the sun, most things that a new user brings  to the floor ahave been discussed, cussed, recussed and then cussed some more endlessly numerous times. Just as I commented about some users stating that i did not understand Asian Naming, which was an insulting remark to make and just plain flat true, and they chose tio make thart comment instead of trying to understand what was trying to be achieved and why, instead they were trying to skate around the Rules and be insulting about it; when in fact there had been an extensive discussion during the design process (not the writing) discussing exactly that issue, along with the linking problems and lack of a functioning linking system at that time, and in fact it was as a direct re4sult of those discussions that the term AS CREDITED came into being, and we recognized that some future linking system would be easy to implement as long as users followed AS CREDITED.

With all due respect, I think just about everything in these forums will seem like that to a 12 yr veteran, but that shouldn't mean that it should never pop up again. Maybe it bothers you because you *don't want* to see a CDprofiler for example? But for those who do, seeing it pop back up is a good thing. The more people voice their opinion, the more likely it is to come into fruitation.

I personally wouldn't use a CDprofiler, but I have no problem with people saying they want one. It doesn't hurt anyone. And there are no requirements for anyone to post in any given thread. If you don't want to read about redundant ideas, then just don't read them. But of course this isn't about CDprofiler, it's about rule changes, but is just as useful to talk about them IMO, especially for those who wish to see them changed.

It's not a question of not wanting to see it, it's a question of amusement, and having some fun sometimes at the users expense. Watch the billy video in my signature. Is it somewhat sarcastic...yes..,but more than anything it is poking someone in the ribs. I like to laugh...at you...at surfeur on those ocassions when he provides amusement..and most importantly at myself. Now all to unfortunatelty, i am not allowed to laugh enough.
