Permaban Moonbeam, reinstate TheFlyingPig's account, and probably reset a few Lifer's post counts to 2 just for fun

Nobody would be able to log in without first taking an IQ test, everyone would get two tries and anyone unable to score above 90 would be banned. I realize a lot of shitheads would get someone else to do it, but I'm banking on the dumbest of the dumb not even having smart friends, which doesn't seem like much of a stretch. I'd probably be tempted to ban a couple other people too, but the above should take care of most of that. Intelligence is no guarantee of sanity or civility, but it's a good start.

How would anyone with an IQ below 90 figure out how to post here? Most people that dumb can't even figure out how to find the site using Google.

Well, Mayne already got banned. :hmm:

I suppose I'd post the password on 4Chan and let chaos ensue.

Hah, you would be surprised. Technical borderline retardation doesn't even begin until 85, and people above 70 are considered intelligent enough to execute. A requirement of 90 would exclude the bottom quarter, except people would cheat so it would probably be more like the bottom fifth. Naming names is frowned on, but I can think of at least one well-known poster that is almost certainly in that ballpark.

I'd drag Red Dawn & Texmaster from Olds' basement into the sunlight, then force them to kiss.

I would lock all Nvidia threads for moderation and cleanup, then maybe unlock them after a month.

I like the gimp tank idea. That's cool and should be done.

I would let Silver Prime be the single moderator for the gimp tank. That role, of course, means that he is permanently stationed in the gimp tank.

Globally unban every single member that has more than 100 posts (just to make sure spammers stay banned).

I'd also implement a gimp tank. People who launch personal attacks towards others or are otherwise annoying or anyone who would normally be fit for banning would be sent there. Nobody would ever get banned, they'd just get sent to the tank. Basically that place would be an unmoderated cesspool. Anyone could post there if they wanted to.

I'd also fix whatever is wrong with the forum so that it does not have to go down as often. I would have a strong 5 9's policy.

I would change the way the forums operated.

You divide users into two teams: blue and red.
Threads and posts can be upvoted or downvoted with a caveat.
Upvotes can only come from the same team.
Downvotes can only come from the other team.
If the thread or posts reaches a net negative value, the post disappears.

:sneaky:

Leave him alone, he probably wrote the modern IQ test when he was a big deal in the 80's.

Relax the rules, let the trolls take over a bit, and see if it brings some of the life back to the forums.
