"Forthcoming changes to the forums"

1. We might consider booting the odd Notable off the Notable list. But I'm not sure if it would be by democratic vote, as that would be very catty. A bit like Big Brother.

2. We might consider an interim status between the current range and banned. I favour "learner" for the status tag and pink for the name colour to warn of danger. We could call them "pinkies".

Changes would appear to be necessary to improve the written content.

Sorry to triple post like this but I have an idea for ALL of the status';

What if you change them all and have Army ranks like Visitor, Private, Major, Genaral.
(JAT, n00b, Regular, Notable)

Like Pro Evo, I suppose he's not been here for quite a while since I've never seen him on the forums.

Why not just boot out the Notables that haven't even been to the site for half a year or a year since they were made Notables?

Already done it for you Goaty :-)

Unless you're the one who pays my wages, I can offer several suggestions as to what you can do with your own head.

Right - I want a 1000 word thesis in the morning describing the finer Notes found in Cats urine and the uses to which this fragrance can be used.

Pah !

Leave it as it is - it's just fine and dandy.

Those that moan and winge that they havn't got urine coloured names are just jealous little ankle biters anyway.

It's just a wee little internet chat forum after all and who really cares that much ? Maybe the only chnage should be that the notable elections should stop so that all the bickering that goes on stops as well.

If you must have more notables let the staff choose. If not leave it as it is.

there shouldnt even be rankings....

Ah, would make things more interesting around here though.

Actually maybe change "interesting" for "childish"...

Crap on that. I would hate to know outta all the rest of the notables who singles who out to go. I would hate to vote and probably wouldn't.
