i think i'll just read and not post..
When I saw your post I had a similar thought to some of those that did respond, but I also see where you're coming from. There are people that are on this board nearly 24 hrs a day, so to them your posts were a little obvious. On the other hand, I do think people should remember that not everyone checks the board 20 times an hour to keep up to date with the information and the general sentiment of the board.
Yes, if you don't check the board regularly then you should read back through the last few pages to make sure your post isn't redundant, but in this case the post wan't really "information" that was posted here previously, it was just one person's opinion. The fact that it seems obvious to those of us that are on the board regularly validates that opinion, in some ways. People shouldn't be made to feel that they can't share their opinions. It certainly doesn't hurt anyone.
