Oleg and Luthier both know how to use the IGNORE LIST feature of this site.
If and when either of them thinks that reading smeone's junk postings become to obnoxious they know what to do.
Mostly, since they are adult men they just pass over the junk and move on to better things.
If you are put on their IGNORE LIST you can count on NEVER receiving any kind of answer from them, even if you do make a sensible post.
------------------------------
There is another way moderators can keep the update threads ON TOPIC. It is very simple, set all posts in the thread to go into a moderation queue.
Moderators can set ANY thread for moderation queue with a couple of simple clicks of the mouse.
Don't think moderators aren't tempted to use this method of moderation when a bunch of junk postings have to be deleted. LOL
Then of course everyone posting has to wait until a moderator has read and approved each posting in made in the thread before it is published.
Everyone also means Oleg's and Luthier's postings would have to be approved as well. Moderators cannot pick or choose members for moderation of a thread, only the thread. This would mean everything and eveyone one would slow down considerably.
