Why is it a problem if it is posted in places where it seems to be relavent?
The idea of expanding the reference library is nice but then we would find that almost all the real creation vs evolution arguments would already be there. When a new drive by poster came along with the "why are there monkeys" or "the flood did it" type of argument everyone would just point there. It would turn this into more of a library than a debate forum.
It isn't as efficient this way but it is a bit more fun. Doncha think?

Yes.
While I don't want to loose the debate aspect, I would like to see things collected more carefully. "Post-of-the-Month" helps a little but it's too haphazard.

Re: Number of messages per (?) limit
But are the messages per moderately active poster going up or is it number of posters that are driving the message counts? If you have some idea of a cap on daily messages and we keep getting more posters then eventually we'll only be able to post once every day or so.
Is the number of postings a problem or the volume of post material? A huge, long, disjointed, post is worse than 5 short to-the-point posts. Could the volume limit be on number of characters rather than number of posts?
