Youse guys woud be getting very " Naveen Jain " here if that idea actually goes through. Any inner working, detailed rationalizations of this proposal are, IMO, irrelevant in the face of the overall concept:

"The discussion also carried the idea that it would not pertain to existing boards; these would be a hybrid board somewhere between a traditional message board and a blog. Similar to a mailing list where the list operator must pre-approve before new users can submit to the list. It's a very old and common concept."

It's a bad cake recipe. It sounds like something Infospace would have proposed. It's like saying, "We're thinking about putting motor oil in cake mix ---- but --- it's 20W-50, not 10W-30 oil!". Motor oil doesn't belong in cake mix anymore than INSP-esque ideas belong in discussion board mix.

It wasn't easy getting through SI's Naveen years. Please tell us y'all are just pulling our Jain.
