That's Slashdot not 4chan. The discussion there is mostly civil, and spam-posters immediately get moderated into oblivion. If you want your posts to show up, you need an established account rather than something newly created. Heck, in the methodology I used, the threshold was high enough that even an old account would require at least one up-mod to get counted. Thus, Slashdot post count is more meaningful than, say, counting posts here on unmoderated debian-devel. -- // If you believe in so-called "intellectual property", please immediately // cease using counterfeit alphabets.
