Considering how many of them behave in the forums - getting into Slateys loungeroom is never gonna happen. The marble fixtures would be tarnished for years!

I wonder if instead of a seperate forum category mods, or the thread author, could just lock a thread with an "old farts only lock' with would only allow "old fart " rated members to contribute. The old fart thread would stay in the traditional forums and so be more available for viewing by all. We dont want to create a "them and us situation" any more than necessary.

Currently it is viewed by all. But only Old Farts can contribute.

We didn't want to restrict the flow of valuable information to the newbies, just eliminate the idiotic ill-informed posts.

And for this reason (in case it's not obvious) The OldFarts forum is only for Herp related topics.

Smile re oldfarts

They tryed something similar on bluetongueskinks.com but you could onley get access if invited,i dont know if its open for general viewing by the lowly peasants,it does create a them and us mentality.

I strongley object to be called an slatemans oldfart,i am nobodys fart to whiff in their own little corner of enjoyment,i am indeed "my own idiot "

Interestingly I tried the forum with a question yesterday but got a fairly thin response.
