2. The trees posted in here cannot be posted in another thread.

I have some trees I can post but I'm not sure I like this rule. If I do post in another thread are the Time Capsule Police going to get me? Seriously, I don't even remember all the trees I put in BVF Time Capsule thread, I don't think anybody else will remember or even care.

That's what's keeping me from participating.
