I appreciate you're volunteers and limited in number, but you seem to have the resource to always quickly delete any posts which don't comply with other thread rules, including my one, three posts back. Sorry for using non-diplomatic language above, but it seems absolutely crazy that this thread consists of pages full of posts essentially saying "applied 5/11/18, everything else: pending" whereas when someone points out that this isn't helpful, their post gets deleted without comment or explanation.
