We all know that this 'Class System' doesn't work. we get Newbies spamming to become regulras because the think it will gain them some more respect. Which it doesn't. But that doesn't stop them. Now with the added "Regular Only Forum" Newbies are going to spam more and more just so they can have access to that particular forum.

Well instead of having the Class System based on number of posts and words why not have it based on how long they've actually been here??!?!?! It'll stop the spamming to become a regular as that won't have anything to do with it. Let's say you had to be here for 75 days to become a Regular.

I think this would work much better than the current system. Anyway, let me know what you think!

This is the last time I will mention this ever:

I still feel I should get a GAD for coding the FOG bridge and proving Tony wrong. The guy who thought of it got one, but not me.

Anyway, I will not mention this again. That is all.

When will this plan take effect and will this affect current regulars that don't meet the criteria?

I once went there to do a bit of research for my story. I didn't like what I saw. Reminded me of Liverpool.
