We could set up all kinds of forums etc. and the old Arfcom will never be the same.

Isn’t your AARP membership special enough?  Now you need a forum too?

Zombie forum.


Why not have one for 20 year members? It would most assuredly be troll free. If you made the 20 year mark you shouldn't be enough trouble to even warrant a mod for the forum.

The limited-access restricted forums have nearly killed this site.  Instead of policing GD, the regular guy members run to their special treehouses and bitch about how dumb GD is.  It been bad for the site.

I’m in four of the secret or restricted forums and they’re all cool, but I think it harms the site overall.

Secret forums?

Sincerely hope they allow for a very relaxed CoC.  Not quite bear pit, but closer to that than to GD.
No racism, threats, etc... but "Fuck off DK, you goose wanker!" (for example )  would be acceptable.

i need a list of the benefits before I get involved with this.
there has to be some quid pro quo, some return on investment.  

will boobies be allowed in the you-were-here-for-twenty forum?

I'm ok with this as well, but it's worth noting that we had a few folks that were right around legal age ~20 years ago, that were decent. And we have some older folks that are shitheels. lol...so I wouldn't use age alone as a determining factor, but age and longevity doesn't seem like a bad idea.

Make it before 2008 instead. The Obama election bum rush was when we started getting some odd characters.

First I seent this. I’d be all over it. It has to have a cut off of entry at the end of 2007. Election 2008 started the downfall.

We could call it the boomer forum. It would piss off all the millennials and gen xers that they couldn’t get in.

Still quite a few.

Having said that, given the lack of acknowledgement in this thread from higher-ups, it's pretty clear this idea is as good as dead.

It was a good suggestion, imo.

Not quite there myself, being a prepubescent 03er. But, I like the idea. Mucho muchly. And I hereby nominate Wolfpack as subforum janitor. He'll get a broom with his initials on it, for sure.
