Anytime you use the "I don't have time" argument on JF the argument is a fail. Japan Forum itself is a time filler. If you don't have time to do things properly on Japan Forum, what are you doing here in the first place?

For instance, take the global warming thread. It's dead right now and somebody revives it by posting something like "Global warming is bad". Sure the post doesn't contribute much, but the thread is back in the first page and somebody else might notice it and contribute with a much better one that will bring the discussion back, thus making the thread alive again.

This is your "good example" argument from the first page. You yourself said those posts are pointless. I am afraid anything beyond that is moot, because you are making the argument FOR pointless posts, which just simply doesn't fly.

Sadly, I am starting to see the answer to this question.
