"Life forum regulars - opinion please"

Hi people, I've been thinking of restricting certain users from entering the Life... forum, much like we do with the Future of Gaming (Prime) forum. So, say from tomorrow onwards, you'll only be able to post in the Life forum if you're a Regular. Whaddya say?

In a way, this is disappointing, because intelligent people can't just come straight in and start chatting about 'clever' stuff (like monkey_man's daily food intake) - people like Light have become integral parts of this forum's success, and he was at it form the word go - but I feel like I've been forced to this position.

Opinions?

I thought we had 1 already.

wouldn't that make 2, or am I missing something.

If you allow this sooner or later it will every forum that some jumped up staffie takes a linking to.

Jumped up staffie? Well excuse me for trying to keep the best forum on here from becoming a mess. This was done to try and stop this forum from being ruined, which I can see happening frankly. This wasn't going to be done out of spite, or elitism, it was going to be done to preserve it in its current state.

As it happens, it probably won't happen now anyway. But I resent being called jumped up, thank you very much.

If you are not with us, then you are against us and we will act accordingly and with swift, uncompromising action.

Operation Enduring Mongy Posts

I get the feeling you're not fussed on the idea then, Ros?

The way it came across was thus.

This is my favorite forum and because I am a staffie I can stop newbies from posting here.

In retrospect you proabably aren't jumped up. You do have the power to do this if you wish. I would have just hoped that the staffies could have been fairer. And I think my point is valid. If you sudenly take a liking to another forum, what is to stop you from doing that same there.

If your offended I'm sorry, but I don't remember you ever stopping to think before you offended me.

Goatboy, are you saying you would like to me to leave?

I think I can understand what you are trying to do, but you have to be careful that you don't develop an atmosphere of "we don't like strangers here" etc. It's all very well trying to keep life in it's current state, but you have to embrace some change whilst trying to keep the stupid posts and spams to a minimum.

No, it was an attempt at lightening a thread using the rhetoric of a clearly retarded world leader to highlight the similarity of these forums and The World.

Division only breeds contempt........
