back to the point: pointless posts, as you so adoringly call them, are useless, wastes of time, and get on everyones nerves. but i've got to say, use what forum tools there are to ignore them, and move on... no disrespect, but 15 seconds extra reading a pointless post will not kill you, will not keep you from fixing your robot's cancer, and will not end up preventing your team from getting to your regionals (unless you end up being 15 sec late to the bus, in that case, i'm sorry)

pointless posts are unneeded, but come with the idea of forums... people have a need to talk, some people like reading what they type more than they like typing usefull info, just like somepeople like to hear themselves speak... you can't stop them by creating an entire post on the subject, because this forum will get absolutely NOTHING done about it...

just keep to your own standards of posting behavior and hope it rubs off on other people
