Oh - and what about:

8. Sharing Ent-draughts with non-Ents?

Elanor's Angel · 03-26-2007, 09:11 PM

(hey, I'm all for being taller...) But is'nt that tied to hybrid plant-life? It's altering a life form...

I will present a thorough presentation on each and every one of the items that I have seen of interest to me by Friday.

Well I'll take that into account. I wonder how many people the 90 second rule annoys, and how often? I wonder if it's actually possible to shorten or eliminate the 90 second rule, or if that's embedded into vBulletin code?

FF, I agree with you about recycled paper!

***Tessar*** · 03-29-2007, 06:09 PM

Definitely possible. I've posted on tons of vBoards where the rule is as little as 10 seconds if I'm remembering correctly.

Butterbeer · 03-29-2007, 07:08 PM

ah... then, that is at least two members of the closed-shop polit-bureau of the woodland realm that i see agree to an unhasty look on this.

Even in the oldest woods does the wind shake many leaves and boughs!

Will the ents march to war to protect their valued threatened woods and ancient forest? ... for the world moves on apace and that which was golden and peaceful is threatened - the world changes and the keepers of the forest must ever renew both leaf and acorn!

Let good woodsbandry be our calling here.

Of course... it is also possible... to LENGTHEN it!

Yes. I heard the horrifying tale of the brief legislation here on Entmoot that made it the 900 second rule.
Absolutely a travesty.
If I had a vBulletin board, it would be the 21 and 1/3 second rule.

Oh noes!

24 hour rule! Worst. Rule. Ever.

Hehe, imagine how much the quality of the posts would improve and how spam would be as good as eradicated

When I have the attention span to wait that long, I spend it reading actual books, not in teacup.

Jon, there is no way to look at the bright side of a twenty-four hour rule.

That's one way of losing member's with the shorter attention spans

I don't even think my attention span is even that long

Not that that is saying much.

Speech! I will be giving a speech in a matter of days, summing up my position based on the points mentioned above but including others as well. Stay tuned!
