Publius and I are always talking about a "Vanity Tax" particularly for those here who abuse Jim's graciousness.

Yes, we have serial Vanity Posters Abusers who sometimes post up to 3 Vanities in a single day! Talk about being self-important!

As you know, the vast majority of Vanities are no more than commentary that could easily be posted onto a legitimate posted article already running on the forum, but the Vanity Poster decides his or her comment merits its own thread!

Like nullandvoid asked, "what if we all did this?" Indeed! The only way to stop Abusers is to shame them!

Humblegunner keeps watch on the FReeploading Bloggers!

Whenever a vanity gets posted, I would love it if the folks who keep our fundraising threads alive would jump in and rate it (bid it) for a vanity tax.

Some vanities should have their authors pony up $50 to keep it from being deleted by the mods, and some of the worst offenders should have to pony up $500. That will get things under control quickly enough.
