Such are the hazards of posting at AppleNova.
I know you're not serious, but let's not create a wrong impression here. Only posting "IBL", "1n b4 lox0rs!!", or other nonsense will get you in trouble - or if you're one of the flamers. Just posting in a locked thread (before it's locked, obviously) is not dangerous at all.

For some time, there were lots of useless threads, and people would post "IBL" until a mod would lock them. That's hardly happening anymore, unless there's a spammer, and then it's even more annoying than the spammer him-/herself.
