I think we tossed this idea around in the Staff forum for a while, once. It didn't go through, tho', and it's plain to see why.

People would be sure to become bitterly envious if as many weeks as they had in mind went by without them becoming Members. Then they'd go off and start threads about how biased the staff is, or better yet, gossip about it off the fora or Leave EoFF Forever™ because after all, nobody wants them around anyway, right?

Right. *bans everybody*
