Good. I'm glad to hear you're willing to put in a bit of work to make the place better.
I had a couple of ideas that I think we can put in place to make the forums better.
First, new moderators. People who are really active but also very trustworthy, and can be given powers to close threads that have become inappropriate, delete offensive posts, and that sort of thing. I don't want it done excessively, but it's obvious that things like this need to be done sometimes and I'm not always on here to do it. I would happily appoint you to be the first of the new moderators, Chris.
Second, perhaps having some sort of limitations on newer accounts (newly registered users). I was thinking we could have it set so that they can't make more than one post every five minutes (to prevent spamming), and set a higher character limit so their posts are more meaningful.
If these ideas sound good to you, let me know, and I will start thinking about the best ways to start putting them in place.
