    It's become apparent that with all the ABSOLUTELY INGENIOUS topics that have been started lately, such as...

    "I hate Mobley's Guts!!"

    "Is Walt the worst in NBA?"

    "If Mo alone in the woods.." [​IMG]

    "Clutch sold us out because he told us 2 weeks ago that a deal would go down in 2 or 3 weeks, yet after 1 week nothings gone down so he's obviously a LIAR!!!"

    ...that Mr. Chariman, you need a idiot test for CC.net membership in order to screen out the yahoos and send them scurrying away like roaches when the lights are cut on!!

    HOW DO YOU NOT GO POSTAL AND JUST START BANNING PEOPLE WITHOUT NOTICE?!?!

    Clutch, I admire you!!

    Some ideas for questions are:

    "What does 'WWW' stand for?"

    "In which city did the Rockets originally start?" (That'll impede a lot of people)

    "What's Dream's middle name?" (Another toughie and "weeding out" question)

    "Is it legal to marry your cousin?" (BIG TIME "weeding out" Q)

    Just a suggestion, BIG GUY!!

    This question should only be allowed in conjunction w/ state. There are some UT fans here (and it's legal to marry your cousin in UT... seriously).

    EXACTLY!! You know that some of the idiots on this board don't know that!!

    More questions:

    "How do you spell 'HAKEEM'?"

    "What state do the Rockets play in?"

    "What sport do the Rockets play?"

    And for a Trick Question:
    "Who came to Houston FIRST: the Oilers or Rockets?"

    maybe it would help if Jr Members were not allowed to start topics?? I keep seeing all kinds of crappy topics started by jr members who either pissed everyone off until they were banned or disappeared afterwards...

    just a suggestion.

    Good one. Make that a privelige for full-fledged members. That might serve to stop a lot of duplicate threads from people who don't know any better to pay attention.

    Disclaimer: I HAVE read some great posts/threads by SOME jr. members. But the stupid ones far outweigh the good ones.

    I like this one, but only in conjunction with raising member status to at least 50 posts.

    Hehe...nice try...The Oilers never "came" to Houston...Bud Adams started the Oilers in Houston (as well as being a founder of the AFL) in....1960, I believe...

    nothing like a good post padding thread...

    I like upping member limit to 65.

    It would keep some really stupid threads out.

    I can even remember some stupid threads i started. a long time ago of course [​IMG]

    Yes,

    No Junior members starting topics, and make membership at least 1000 posts....maybe 1500.

    1000 sounds like a good round number. Maybe Clutch should try it for awhile, see if the intelligence level in here rises.

    I actually think 1000 is a bit excessive..but

    it doesn't matter to me.the only rights I need here is the right to read posts and occasionally shoot off my mouth... [​IMG]

    anything over that is gravy!!
