With so many forum posts following similar themes, perhaps we can save members some time by identifying new threads with a number corresponding with the type of message being posted.
To get things started, here are my suggestions for "Posting by the Numbers":
COMMON FORUM POST #1:
"My crooked parking company locked me out of my account. It's clear that they're closing my account because they owe me $10,500 USD in click revenues for my newly registered hot domain, VeryVeryVerySlipperySnakesAndWeasels.info. I know the traffic was valid, because I clicked on the ads myself. What can I do?"
COMMON FORUM POST #2:
"Help! My domains were stolen. I sold 6 three-letter dot coms to a buyer with an account at anon.petit.fi. As agreed, I transferred the domains to him, but he never wired me the money. If there are any attorneys online, I would appreciate a week or two of free legal services."
COMMON FORUM POST #3:
"I bought a two letter dot com from some guy on the internet. After wiring him the money, he never transferred the domain. I can't prove that he even owned the domain, since it has a private domain registration. Any suggestions?"
COMMON FORUM POST #4:
"My domain registrar is a crook. It's true that a huge number of Fortune 500 corporations trust them with their intellectual property, but I can't believe that they have the audacity to charge more than $1 what it costs them to process domains through the registry. Sure, they deserve to make a profit, but 50 cents per domain per year should be plenty to operate their servers and pay expenses."
COMMON FORUM POST #5:
"Dot Siberia, the next big TLD!!! Get in on the ground floor by registering your virtual piece of the tundra!!! There won't be a sunrise period, because the sun won't rise until next summer."
Any suggestions? ---Ed

I remember using it in 1994 for Usenet posts.
