Marty, here's a plan for the coming two or three months that will raise the forum to a better level.
Respaul, Black Mamba and Fliakis should be hired as moderators. Their task should not be only to moderate, but also they should act as fascist police (too bad Zlatan was called so but he was never one

)
A new set of rules should be added to the current one and ALL members have to abide by it.
A warning system should be implemented and actually applied, leniancy is intollerable.
Nagging, silly reporting and opening threads just to ask a question should not be allowed.
In certain sections of the forum, thread derailing or hijacking should not be allowed.
I can come up with more later on.
