As the moderator of this section I get the increasing feeling you are abusing the current rules with a continues stream of identification requests. You play fine by the rules of this forum, but that does not mean you are helping getting down the unhappyness other forum members have with this section of the forum.

I suggest to limit your identification request for those plants you really really really want to know the name of. Not just go through your entire collection from plant 1 to plant 10000.

I am getting to the point to add a rule that limits the number of requests be posted if you (and others) continue like this. And then I will be on top of it like a police agent!

Do we really want to go there?

I just don't know why there should be some limit of questions. If there are people who wants to help me, they just should be able to do that. They won't help me if they don't want to. In my opinion in this way every user of this section learns new species. It's better if there are some new topics or no? More activity attracts people because they know they will get help here. But it's just my opinion.

No.
It's a burden, not an addition.

Seriously? This forum is about dead the way it sits, not very much going on, takes forever to get replies... Any sort of thread or post should be welcomed (within reason) the whole point of a community is to lift each other up and say, wow, its great your trying to learn your collection and what you have, instead of beating people off and telling them you ask too much questions....
