Here is a thought. This is a VBulletin board, much like another that I am a moderator on. We have a sub forum called "Premium Members" For a $10 donation a year, you have access to that sub forum that the general population does not. It is exclusive to those that donated. They also have better deals. For example, I want to sell a dress. In the Main section, I am asking $25 for it. In the Premium section, I would ask say $18. It is a much better group. People still visit the main section, but this is like a little retreat for those that "know" the option is there. It gets everyone away from the more ignorant new users.
Then another thought. Have joining be an application process. People apply in the "prospective members" area and answer a few questions. Admin and senior members can vote if they feel they should be allowed to join or not.
If that person is not complying to the TOS then they get the boot. Oh, one other thing with this...the information is still available to others, but they can not post nor PM. They can just search and review the info.
Just a thought. But I agree, there are some unessicarily harsh users on here lately that are making others feel like complete crap and that is not fair!
