so are the posts only deleted if they are exactly the same or are they not counted if they are similar i.e. "my loach likes to eat" & "my loach loves to eat"
does punctuation count too?

You still have 1 more day to get your post count up :nilly:
So, anyone else think this will fill up in 30 mins? I figure I'll bring my laptop to class and shoot out a few entries. I'm sure posting will be done by 1:50
