Idea: Veteran Forum

[JUKEBOX]

Could we make a private forum for members over 5k posts to blab? Maybe require a certain number of reputation points as well?

Sounds like an interesting idea, but I wouldn't use post count as the entry limiter. Maybe length of membership and reputation.

Speaking of reputation, our current rep system needs an overhaul. It's basically worthless as far as trying to gage someone's reputation on the board. The scale needs to be changed. And bring back negative rep. But I digress, that deserves its' own thread...

Jukebox pleeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaease give me your username and password for this exclusive club. I want to join but I have to make thousands of more posts....

I would make it for Christian, straight, white, male, landowners only. I think that would be a really good idea.

You're going to have to go back and prove that you posted last year at this time:twitcy:

I think 30K posts should be sufficient to keep out the riff raff:yes:

Dammit. It usually take me until about March to get used to writing 2012...

I would like my own forum so I wouldn't have to read other people's opinions at all.

I think that is a brilliant idea Freebird. You are such a smart man and the lady's all love you.

If this were to happen it should be based on rep. That way the Hawk trolls for sure can't get in. (Not talking about the good Hawk posters on this site.)

 

[reignofthetiger]

Agree on some sore of rep requirement, as opposed to number of posts. Quantity doesn't necessarily mean quality..

This is a popular request... but a moderation nightmare. People attack each other via negative rep, then we hear lots of complaints about it and have to moderate it. There were both internet tough guys AND people being too sensitive when we had it.

Are Vietnam veterans welcome?

Who is to say there is not already an invite only secret forum? Maybe, just maybe you have not made the cut?

Not saying there is, not saying there is not. Just saying...

I own cats. I mean, I'm not a cat owner, but if I play against cats in various games of skill, I totally own them.
