Amirth, even if Potato IS Metro (which I don't believe), the only issue (if it even is an issue) is too many new topics in off-topic. I don't think thats really much of a problem (though I'd love to see a single 'social' thread instead of a new thread of no substantial content every day or so.) So I really don't see it as serious.
We can't come to the conclusion that everyone who has a lot of energy like Metro did, is Metro. Metro would have insulted all of us by now and be asking perverse questions about the most challenging of Tezuka's works.
C'mon, if Potato was Metro, he would have made 5 news posts in the general forum called 'OMG, TEZUKA MADE PORN???!!!' And then he would have answered every reply with a huge, bandwidth-wasting image.
On a theoretical note (because its the internets, like no one can really know anything), if potato IS metro, he's taken several etiquette classes and is on a daily regimen of prozac.
Of course we all know the truth: Metro was really Strobe_Z's sockpuppet
EDIT: And to make myself clear, I'm talking about rule #4 (don't make lots of unnecessary threads.) Kevin, Potato--seriously, get 'The social thread' going--and if it fills up or gets ridiculous, start a second one. That's better than a new thread every day or so about eh, whatever it is most of these threads are about.
