Dear Board Mommy
Is it possible for the powers that be to give the forumites a new feature for Christmas?

It would be great if, when we put a person on iggy, that any thread they start would also not be visible.

Please, please, pretty please. With a cherry on top. Whipped cream...chocolate sprinkles...

Okay...beer.

It's possible.

I even know a programmer who may be interested in constructing such a feature, free of charge.

And limit the number of threads they can start per day.

You know, that's not a bad idea. How many threads per day does one person need to start? It would sure cut down a lot the crap treads that get started by the attention ho's...make 'em think twice about what they want to talk about. Hell, if we could do that, we wouldn't even need the feature I'm requesting.

The problem is that there are only certain tweaks we can make to the software without invalidating our agreement with vBull. You should have seen the freakout when I posted instructions on how to create a private forum, and that was just using straight Admin tools.

I would have loved to see the freakout.

Ah - I didn't know you had an on-going thing with them.

NOOO!!! Considering the two biggest offenders are already premo, this would NOT work.
