If you recommend five threads and receive five recommendations
then would it be acceptable for you to give one recommendation to one of your own threads?

6. Please let go
It is the same idea -- you want to recommend your own threads but now you want to propose a different way. It is the same idea. Please let it go. People do not agree with the concept.

20. there's no point in being able to recommend your own threads
since you can do it only once.

all that does is mean that you get onto the greatest page with 4 votes instead of 5. big whoop. :eyes:

21. For want of a nail the shoe was lost...
For want of a shoe the horse was lost.
For want of a horse the rider was lost.
For want of a rider the battle was lost.
For want of a battle the kingdom was lost.
And all for the want of a horseshoe nail.
