Arch/Mods don't have to be "involved" in monetary transactions as others have noted this action would be... all Arch has to do is help identify trouble makers that were deemed that way by the community. Just saying... Well if we could get sub-forums in the new thread, where each incident would have its own thread, there would be no need for the old Prob Disc to remain active. It could be locked for archival use but new PL/HOS candidate discussions would occur within the relevant sub-topics. It would make searching a heck of a lot easier as well, as one could look for the "offender" name in the Subject Line of the new forum. Again, though, I don't think a corporate owned and run message board is going to start letting Mods single individuals and give them "Scarlet Letters", so to speak, next to their names. There would also be added overhead for hem keeping track of or being PMd to remove the stigmata if a case is resolved and someone is removed. Well a sub-forum (if I understand it correctly) would allow individual threads to made about potential problems and people wouldn't have to search though 800+ pages of one thread to find out the information about one indecent. They could just search thread subject for the topic they are looking for. Right. It is no different than the Kudos forum. Just serving the opposite purpose. _________________________ My newly updated pre-code horror checklist: Excel Spreadsheet http://www.mediafire.com/view/?bocj4c8r1i5xlnu Delimited Text File (for im portaing into other apps) http://www.mediafire.com/view/?fatq0qp54ltz1ba

All the discussions and probation threads have already been segregated and relegated to the appropriate corner of the forums. Honestly it does not seem simple. There are a total of 54 members on the HOS/PL list as of this writing. Granted there have been some that have been removed. So lets be really generous and make that number to 74. Representing that is 12,348 posts. That is an average of 167 posts per person, using the expanded count of 74. We both know that number is not representative of the actual post count related to the specific PL/HOS issue. How is this simple and complete? Why would a thread exactly like Kudos but for negs rather than positives be more complex than what we have? _________________________ My newly updated pre-code horror checklist: Excel Spreadsheet http://www.mediafire.com/view/?bocj4c8r1i5xlnu Delimited Text File (for im portaing into other apps) http://www.mediafire.com/view/?fatq0qp54ltz1ba
