@Matrix - Ha!
I still like the Report to Moderator function, when things get very out of hand. I've seen more than one recent user (I count 3 off the top of my head), who didn't seem interested in learning and were more interested in stirring stuff up. Everyone here, who has been here a little while and participate almost daily, does not seem to be the types of people who need to be segregated to keep the peace. I'm sort of opposed to segregating the forum into special elite places.
This forum, for the most part, has been a very friendly place.
