since this is such a new site it'd be hard to implement a time-in thing, but we could probably make a forum where the members allowed to post are hand-picked (almost typed licked :ut-oh: ) by the staff...
this thread really shows why it would be nice though
also though, if we implement that then we're risking losing any quality that does exist outside this theoretical not-stupid-only area

I'd like to hear more suggestions on this.. There are some software tools that can be implemented such as 'promotions' or special usergroups where you have more abilities as an intelligent poster or whatever... Toss out the ideas and I'll look into them at my next update, I have to get the new site areas out the door soon too...
I believe it is the on the Gamespot forums where the users have formed what they call "unions". Basically a group of people who have the same interests, and they typically have their own board for the union members to post. The users formed their groups a long time before the forum recognized them and gave them their own boards; I did notice there is a "group" feature/thing in the public profiles, and I wonder if that could be somehow utilized? I guess there could be a "Rationality Union" or something. I don't know.
I like the sound of this idea, as I have a very strong stance against rampant stupidity, so any efforts to attempt to regulate this will always be supported by me. Is there any way we can have the administrative staff give certain people some sort of priviledged members status to make use of private, dumbass-free forums? If that doesn't work then I think the unions thing is probably the way to go if it is already known to work.
