Bill, can't agree with neither of your points. My very third post on this fora occurred in the Silmarillion subforum, even more exigent than the Books is. In case there were such restrictions, I would not have been BD member up to now. As for the IQ test, what criteria would be used - general or Tolkien related? And what about not native English speakers (in case of general), who, being brought up in different environment, would find it the way far more difficult to solve. Anyways, as I did state elsewhere, light-headed fans should be risen up by participating in the Books discussions, rather than banned out and so left on their current level

As for repeatedly posting the same topic. Well, that's a bit irritating, but look from the other angle, and you'll see that, say, each of the same old balrog/wings threads is quite different in itself, has different ppl posting and different opinions expressed etc. I agree it should be nice to have them alltogether, but it's not so bad as it is.

If there is no serious discussion in the thread, do not bother yourself posting there, it will die out by itself

thanks
