I think the idea is an overall good one, as long as it doesn't turn out to be solely a "Praise the Oldbies for being around a long time" thing. Personally, I'd like to learn more about former staff members who no longer post, but were extremely important "back in the day." I catch references to events from the past occassionally in #eoff and on the boards, but learning the details of these events and who started them would be an interesting bit of history. And if this idea gets off the ground, there could be a "Hall of Shame" section to highlight the members like ffbabe...although this suggestion has pretty much been shot down when it was proposed as an individual forum or whatever recently.
