Bitcoin dev xf2_org mentioned to me today "This forum has been filled with garbage lately, and not even the bitcoin devs necessarily frequent it often."

The >15 day old rule is great. Also, outright banning of accounts wouldn't go astray, nor would flagging. There are some people coming (I think) that want to see bitcoin totally fail.

Put a sticky thread about the Bitcoin Q&A (Stack Exchange), and embrace it as official. Stack Exchange sites moderate themselves.

Go there and commit if you haven't already!

And pm a moderator if you want a sticky thread about Bitcoin Stack Exchange.

I think the protocol for >50 posts should be changed to account >15 days old.

Additionally, I'd be interested in offering up a suitable domain for use (mod can pm me) if it should be moved.

I know I'm relatively new here but I'll volunteer to be a mod if you'll have me.  I think you'll find I'm quite active on the forums, and I know I'm well cut out for the job.

The 50 post limit will be reduced. Probably the "newbies" section will be removed once the moderation tools have been improved.

I think there's a SMF rule allowing minimum number of posts before a newbie can post a new topic. That might work.

Well, pick one and vote. And discuss.
