I agree with BennyP. It must be difficult for Admins/Moderators to monitor all the posts and see if each and every post has followed all the forum rules.
When user post mirror links for something they are indeed doing a good job by keeping it available for others. But if the existing links are already working then I see no point in posting the mirror links.
You will agree with me that posting mirror links is way too easy thing to do then to post a new material. This is a great forum and it has huge list of resources already available for us so finding something which has not been available in this forum is not an easy task.
Everyday I find links for different civil engineering books on the internet and they looks to be something new but when I search it in this forum then I find that same book was shared here 2 or 3 years ago.
When I was suggesting the New Thread List, my thinking was that people who are putting more effort ( by finding new material ) should get more appreciation from the forum users and there threads should be visible at the home page to the users for longer time so others can easily access it.
I agree with BennyP that there should be a daily limit on number of posts. New Threads may be exception. This way Admins/Moderators will also get some rest.
