1. Another forum I go to (mothering/homeschooling) has this cool feature where you have to be a part of the board for 4 weeks and have more than 50 posts before you can post in certain areas, and actually you can't even *read* those areas, they don't appear on your screen, until they give you access.... this would be a great feature for us, in my opinion, for things like.... talking about sex.... we know who the people are before they come in and start some shocking thread, if you know what I mean.

2. Can we please :cry: cut down on the number of forum areas? It is like having a church of 50 people but a 1000 seats... it just feels more empty that way!!! We could condense them easily and it will make our forum look like there are more people and like more is going on, rather than having sections that haven't been used for a week, or a month, etc. LATER it could be expanded as more people were chillin' here.

Good suggestions! Just to let you know, we're discussing them.... :)

Cool... and while're were at it... how about, can we add these smilies to our clickable ones?

These first two are in the clickable list (might have to click on show more smilies) not sure about the third one though.

Oh I didn't know about "show all"

I cleaned up the Clickable Smilies 'cuz in the early days you had to page-down twice just to get to the "Post Reply" button. It was a real pain. I moved the larger smilies to the "Show All" and accidentally deleted one - though nobody can figure out which one that was...

Well now that I know I get to use such wonderful smilies as this:

:wub:

Ooooh and this one:

:laundry:

Now if that last one isn't an accurate depiction of my life, I don't know what is....

We also discussed cleaning up some forums around here, so you'll see some changes there too soon as well! ;)
