Yes, please add my name to that list  ;]

In-your-face notification/warning is a Good Thing.  I
already "lose" threads that I post in because I didn't
notice a FUT was set.  'Course I've been known to lose
my keyboard, too, but that's a different story...  :]

(...) If it were automatic and silent (i.e., no error message), I worry that people would post and then say, "Hey, where did my post go? It didn't show up! I'll post it again. Hey, where did my post go?" --Todd (26 years ago, 14-Mar-01, to lugnet.admin.nntp)
