SQUAWK BOX TO RETURN


[+] serious ballot by LCD
ACTIVE Sat Mar 15, 08 - Tue Mar 25, 08

i rewrote a squawk system, and I am about to put it back.

only issue is I don't want the idiot parade to get a chance to dip their fingers into it.

any idea how to prevent that from happening?


open to superusers only.
open with invitation from superusers.
open only after good contributions on the site.
Open after a superuser gives you positive karma on something.
A combo of some of the above.

I wouldn't use it if you payed me now (huffs off).

Voted : open with invitation from superusers.
Actually this idea's better than the one I suggested.

How about they must get good karma plus they need an invite from a superuser?

Plus if you really need to you could put in key words which will automatically kick them from the squawk box. I think you have a good idea of what words I mean lol.

This. There's a superuser on almost 100% of the time it seems. Just have a little button that shines red when a non-superuser wishes to enter the conversation. This would serve as an obvious beacon to whatever superuser is on that someone wants conversation approval.

One has to prove that they're a stable lifeform before being allowed access.

^ I immediately see the flaw in my above argument. Someone can come in, acting well-behaved, and then go caveman on us. Maybe open to those invited by superusers.

But seriously, I won't be askin' anyone's permission to do anythin'!

Some of them already think they've got bigger bollocks than than us grunts around here.

Fair enough, you might think you're doing the right thing to stop abuse, but it's at the expense of the non-superusers, who've been here a long time being made to look stupid. A 1% minority! I might add.

Why not Just go the whole hog and kick all non-superusers out? You can all spend your days happily administarting each other, till you spill your superuser goodies, in delight. ;o)

britvic, I am asking for suggestion.

if you have a better suggestion, by all means let me know.

if it wasn't for these psycho morons, I wouldn't be in this situation restricting features.
by LCD on Sun Mar 16, 08 2:26pm [+]

^ Lol, I did think that after I'd posted. I know you didn't actually say that it was actually going to happen, but at least you know my feelings on the subject. I'm just saying be aware that some of these measures could alianate long time users. ;o)
by britvic55 on Sun Mar 16, 08 6:08pm [+]

How many times can you say actually in a sentence?
by britvic55 on Sun Mar 16, 08 6:10pm [+]

I'll vouch for britvic that he is safe and sane (mostly) LOL
