    Default Recognized Member Cap

    No, I don't mean we're going to give RM's a hat. Bleys brought it up in another thread, but I don't think it's actually been discussed before.

    Lots of RM's = bad idea. Right now being an RM is kind of cool, but if there're a lot of RM's then I think all the people who aren't one'd feel uncool.

    Right now there're 25 Recognized Members, and I say we cap it at 25 or even 20 and take 5 down. What's everyone else think? I count 12 of 'em right now who don't even show up anymore.

    Obviously who is an RM and who isn't is still the decision of the staff, but I'd like to hear everyone's opinion of what kinds of people should be RM and what kinds shouldn't and what everyone thinks about a cap on it.

    A cap sounds good... especially because, though we have thousands of members, not each of them post anymore... heck, most of them dont. So 25 or even 20 sounds like a good cap. Maybe the people who're gone can retain their titles, but have it modified to perhaps 'former Recognized member' since they're gone or something. Eh, whatever sounds good to everyone else works for me.

    I say we end on a high note and stop here.

    Well I dont think she means taking it away from people who're actually active.

    I agree. I also think we should review all the current RM's and figure out who actually did enough and/or is still active enough to earn their title. I think a cap of 20 is fine.

    I say we get rid of Nait first. Give him a new title, a pink one that says Banned.

    Sure, a cap sounds excellent.

    If you do, I'll tell everyone about your affair with Unne.

    Sounds like something one would be proud of.

    Well, if that is so, I ask you one thing: why is he hiding it?


    EDIT: You're fast. Too fast. And a dork yourself.

    I never expected actual support for the idea. I was just grousing.

    Yes, yes, yes! I'd support a twelve member cap, but I'll settle for 20.

    What, hold hold hold hold ON! This was BLEYS' idea? No. No way. I can't accept this. Sounds like crap. No feasible. You'll hurt people's feelings. You'll hurt MY feelings. I'll only allow it if you ban Unne. This would create elitism. What if you someone needs to be RM? Will you kick someone else? Think of the contributors. Think of their children, lookit them. Their puppy-dog eyes and ribs sticking out of their malnourished bodies as their RM daddies and mommies work at the quary, dying slowly out of coal-poisoning and not being allowed to use their native language under the heavy fist of the cruel Brittons and their demonic monarchs...
