'When' you do? If you don't expect perfect restraint from yourself, don't expect
it from others. The problem with your request is that people will post and
respond to posts however they see fit, irrespective of how you may or may not
want them to. This is the way it is, so deal with it and stop whining.

Not all that difficult. It's really just as easy as not clicking the 'post'
button. In general, and it could just be me, not doing a thing is a lot easier
than doing it.
