Why mark targets?

You want people to read 19 pages before responding and then only respond if the thread was started within a specific time frame? These forums are slow enough as it is. Don't discourage posting.

I should clarify.

1) There's a difference between posting in an old but active thread and a necro. I mean, the Rotation Reborn thread has been active since launch, but I'm not gonna ask people not to post there. If the post dies for a month, though. . .

2) Very few people who responded to the thread (even when it was originally posted) actually bothered to read the OP and not just the title. I'm not necessarily asking people to read 5 pages (don't know how people can stand having it set to 10/page), but at least read the original post. . .
