They don't have to be the same thing. Both carry the connotation of being "in" with site management.
That's only true for the people who have absolutely no earthly idea what those two things entail. It's fine to assume, but those assumptions are exceedingly dumb.

Look, I know you want to run your thread in a manner where it simply contains updates on various races, but it's entirely unreasonable to expect no replies, or replies that don't devolve into chitchat on a discussion forum known exactly for that. If your goal here is simply to coalesce all your data in one place and eliminate the extranneous noise, you could always ask a mod to move it to your personal blog and link your blog in your sig.
Replies are not an issue, as I said they can be quite helpful in ferreting out information that can be referred to later. What's not welcome is attempting to "update" this thread with contradictory information that does not contain the same veracity and factual accuracy that the people who regularly check this thread have become accustomed to. I have no interest in wasting valuable time correcting things posted here by other users that are factually incorrect, because I myself wouldn't have posted flawed information that needs correcting in the first place.
That said, the option is there to make a similar thread if people find the commentary lacking here. It's an interesting situation because this thread was meant for the people who
read this subforum, not necessarily the people who
post regularly in it. These are very simple requests and as I said if people really lack the intellectual capacity to discontinue what's not welcome here then I'll merely have the thread closed and move the discussion elsewhere so that I won't have to waste any of my time.
