Not in the slightest and I'm not the only person who detests these sort of threads.
Zinix doesn't always just post a link and nothing else, but when one person does it another will think it is acceptable and soon the forum is full of these annoying threads (and it's already getting that way).
I think you are and as far as I can see from these and other forums you are the only one who feels this way and there is no need for it.
