The only thing I can think of is another site setting that _forces_ users not to post (n) replies in sequence. This has been requested before, and as long as it is off by default or set very high I don’t think it’s a problem to do.. this feature also exists in other forum software, I know that for a fact.

In fact @zogstrip why don’t you add this to your list, very low pri.
