I don't know how long this has been in place, but I just tried to start an intelligent topic in the prime topics FOG and I was told that Newbies and JATs are banned from starting topics in that forum. This is stupid! The FOG is almost dead anyway at a rate of 3 or 4 sensible topics a day, and banning newbies from using it will surely kill it off. The only outcome can be that newbies shun the FOGPT until they are regulars, and by then will have no interest in it. I understand that people would want certian people to be banned because they post utter rubbish, but these people should be banned individualy, possibly by vote, instead of simply banning the entire class.
