>mm, I like the incentive aspect of a frequent fliers approach, but thinking of class-type reunions, you do get invited back no matter how active a member of your class you were...
I do NOT like the frequent fliers approach - imho, it discriminates against posters who due to time constraints, illness, etc. are, for reasons beyond their control, simply unable to post frequently, even though they might want to.
Why should frequent posters be rewarded with their own special board just because they post a lot? IMHO, this hardly constitutes a reason for setting up a whole new, special board that would be exclusionary to non-frequent posters.
Sorry, but I just do NOT see any reason(s) whatsoever for fractionating (word?) what is a COHESIVE, solid and well-run system just the way it is. "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
All you're going to do by creating some separate boards, each with limited membership, is divide the current COMMUNITY into factions and disrupt the nice, smooth flow of things.
