My 2 cents, fwiw.......
Leave the counts where they are. (Although Churaks sugg of unlimited for stock boards, premium for all others has merit. Or maybe not unlimited, but raised to 25 or so.)
I did a quick survey of the "big 3" on the Swing board recently. For that particular week, 2 of them were well under the 18 post limit daily, while the 3rd was over the 18....big time....two of the 5 days. BUT, he is already grandfathered in on IHUB, so no problem there.
I also did another survey of another board before they moved to IHUB. Only 2 were close to the 18 post limit, but since the move, I don't think any have had any problem.
I think if you start adjusting for one person or group, all the others will want the same consideration, and rightly so, imo. "Why does he have more than me?" and "Not fair" type complaints will come flooding in.
Also imo, the 18 post limit helps keep some of the riff-raff off the boards. For example, on RB, there are boards where a poster will make 6-8-10 posts in a row....none of them really TOS'able, but none of them furthering any coherent discussion either.
As far as Linda's rant, yeah, the price for premium is kinda steep, imo, but if you want it badly enough, you'll find a way.
It's kinda like....I'd sure like to have a Saleen S7, but at $400,900.00, I'll just have to make do with my 'Vette. I doubt my complaining to Saleen is gonna get me any breaks on the price, lol.
