Alla/ Alika elf:

Indeedy LOL. I agree with what Susan said while wearing both hats of 
hers.

I just want to elaborate a little bit and yes of course I would love 
to hear what others think.

I know first hand how hard it is sometimes to stop when you are in 
the middle especially chat like discussion. I mean, not exactly chat 
like, but RL time discussion. These days of course I do not feel the 
desire to post a lot nearly as much as I used to, but sometimes these 
discussions still happen ( like you and me did today Potioncat) and I 
have to be really careful. I almost replied and then I realised that 
I posted two yesterday evening and I already used up my five.

I mean, to me the point about dominating the list is very important.

I know that lots of list members left the group, but we do have new 
members coming in still and I would absolutely hate for example for 
somebody who loves Snape to be turned off the group because they 
would think that there are so many posts from somebody who hates 
Snape and opposing point of view will not be welcome.

I would also not want anybody to think that we do only allow the 
certain length posts ( long), or vice versa. Does it make sense?

I agree with both SS-Susan and Alla.  I remember when I first joined HPFGU,
after OOTP came out.  It was before there were posting limits, and I did
feel intimidated to send those first few posts.  I was worried that I would
have nothing new to say, that as a newbie, I would be overlooked, and that
maybe you had to be one of those 20 posts a day people to be really in, so
to speak.  Not exactly what I'm trying to say, but not finding the words.  I
just remember feeling intimidated and feeling freer to post, when there were
limits.
