Alright, well that seems to be agreed upon...so I guess that's how it'll be. It sounds like a solid idea to me. Before I actually make it, we have to work out the details. The only real question that I can think of is how many people a week to we nominate/allow to join?
The automatic entried will be anyone who has a registered date of March or previous. That would include any person who registered before the dark period. (except for a member named "G"...that person registered sometime right after the dark period began...but left no info and has posted nothing, so they'll not be included).
On a sidenote: This idea basically is a mixture of the "Nubblies Elite" forum and the simple forum made to secure certain posts from people who should not see them. For that reason, the forum will act as the Elite Forum (since you have to be voted in) and, at the same time, as the "make sure you aren't someone who shouldn't see the shit in here" forum (since, eventually, most people should be allowed entrance).
Also, since being voted in is key, this should have the opposite effect on posting in the rest of nubblies than the post count idea. Instead of going for a ton of shitty posts, now users will try to impress the Elite with their skills

. God bless Nubblies.
