"prod123" I think you are talking about fairness here, but life is not always fair. Also, if there were a correlation between the number of messages you post here and your approval, everyone will be trying to contribute to this forum.
On the other hand, what kind of life (that includes mine too - no offense to Edison_NJ) we have, if we always lurk in this site and reply to every damn message. Interestingly, if we see the history of very active members, they get approved the last because I think their services are needed the most. I hope the statistics are wrong in Edison_NJ's case.
