I wasn't there during the first wave of all of this so it's understandable for members to be iffy about it more than me. I must also agree with how "maturity" should be a huge key factor in enabling those to participate within the forum itself. There's no doubt that immaturity + flame forum = bad stuff that's bound to happen.

I also like the background check idea. It can give the staff a better conclusion of deciding on the member who wants to be in it. If they had a past of taking offense to things easily or bringing unnecessary drama on here then maybe it's not a good idea. But I don't make the overall decisions. They would have to decide on that.

Requirements like this would make it a lot easier and have a less chance of getting things out of hand than what has happened before. Any other ideas and input is always welcome.
