It's a good thing if you need it. It's an unnecessary burden if you don't.
That's what I was trying to come away with.
Now, most people *do* need ACID, or they wouldn't be using a database in the
first place. (Your text editor isn't ACID, is it?) But there are
increasingly more places that are willing to give up consistency in favor of
scalability.

It's either moderated or it isn't. Now, maybe some peoples' posts are
auto-approved, but they're still moderated. If it's an NNTP forum, you can
tell by looking at the headers.

Well, OK. But he doesn't troll about on-topic stuff, even in off-topic. :-)
