[REJECTED] Suggestion: A Veterans-Only Section of the Forums

Now, I know what you're thinking. "What would be the point of this?" And the point here is not entirely for nub-free discussion, but for discussion of things we don't want to advertise to the general public; you all know what I'm talking about.

Anyway, it could be for vets, or 6-months, or even 3-months, whatever Intelli and Rokkr deem appropriate. It could also be used for general chat. There are plenty of potential uses for it, and those are only two. So vote, and give feedback.

p.s. My apologies if this has been suggested before.
p.p.s. I'm only slightly in favor of this idea myself, so if anyone wants to try changing my mind, feel free :3 I just felt that this ought to be out there for evaluation.

There are currently 11 sections in this forum.

The entire front page of this forum is composed of 5 topics as of now.

Excluding bans, that means there are 5 sections that aren't being utilized frequently.

I just hope that this proposed section won't turn into a sixth.

Even though I am a vet, no. nononononononono. Imagine if this happened to chat. Veterans would only talk to veterans and this will happen on the forums too. While the frustration from nub threads in the wrong place happens often, think about how many times that happens. It's really much less than most people put it up to be. In fact, it's less than 10% IMO, which really isn't too bad. A lot of players that are not vets are much more respected than some 1 year or maybe even 2 year vets :).

I'm relatively undecided. The original reason I decided to suggest this is because there are certain things that confuse people because they can't be discussed in public. I'm neutral currently, someone convince me otherwise.

Some people appreciate having the vets around. I'm one of them.

What about the newbs/non-vets who act like mature veterans?
