True I figured throw out an idea to help keeping the ideas flowing in this thread. Better to have to many ideas thrown out there than having hardly any being thrown.

I think it has merits, and while it can be construed as creepy, I don't think it would actually be so in practice. I can think of a few people off the top of my head whose posts I always enjoy, because they are informative and thoughtful, and I find myself following them into threads because typically, they are generating worthwhile discussion.

Suggestion : New Members Forum which is inaccessible to all and everything with a post count below 100. That includes invisibility from feeds generated by/for users without access and invisibility to search bots such as google's.

I like this idea.

Ok guys, I'm planning on submitting the list to the admin soon, so if there are some things you have suggested, or really want, that have not been included in the list, write a brief description as a reply. If it doesn't get included, it was probably too ridiculous or completely impossible. Other than that, I'll include what hasn't already been outright denied.

You have a day or so to point out anything I've missed in the thread, or re-state anything that wasn't acknowledged. I WILL SUBMIT THE FINAL LIST THURSDAY!

Hey mods, anyone know why when I add someone and they accept the request they don't show up in my friends list? I mean, they have a little + next to their name, so what's the deal?

^^Hmm, that's strange...Are you sure they accepted your request? The little + will appear next to their names even if they don't accept it yet.

If you haven't submitted the list yet, I'd like to add two more suggestions I've seen lately.

1) Timestamps in the shouty.
2) Adding the N word to the word filter.

lets get some time stamps in the shoutbox

Timestamps in shoutbox would be a cool idea, I think. Another forum I'm on has this feature, and it's great because you can see right away when the last shout was posted instead of clicking on the archives (to do that here, just click "shoutbox")
