[QUOTE="asd9055, post: 2892768, member: 73445"] Been thinking more about this. Back in the days before internet, we had BBS. Bulletin Board System, you dialed straight into a "chat room". You behaved or got kicked off. Then came the early days of internet and internet chat rooms. IIRC is one that comes to mind, Internet Relay Chat. You had to know telnet commands... Yes I am old, have the gray hair ot prove it. Here you had an option of creating a chat room (like thread here). If you did, you were the OP and had the ability ti kick people off (warning, the could rejoin) or kick/ban they could not rejoin. You could also give OP privileges to members you knew. I did not eleminate drama, but it reduced it, kept bulling to a minimum and chats more friendly. Then came forums...and I still dont have the right answer...I am still conflicted. [/QUOTE]
