And as a main offender in this category I feel suitably chastened. The "Cracking the Ks" thread was locked by the time I saw it, so I couldn't reply there.

My apologies to members - I shan't be posting any more congratulatory notes. :oops:

personally,
I dont have a problem with people posting congratulatory posts.
sometimes the hard works go un noticed.

I havent seen the congrats threads being abused by post accumulators.
