Super Munch, if I may say so, and much as I love you, you're being a bit of a twat. So stop it. Contribute something other than mere jokes please, it's getting a bit annoying.
Also, the employee lounge is for employees, not for people with massive IQs or "worthy" "elite" members. Nor will there ever be such a place. And I know Hobo will chip in with his "I > you" gimmick, but I emplore him not to, because I'm making a serious point here.
SeaRex is right, elitism does nothing but piss people off. I've been to forums where elitism has been taken to the extreme, and most of the people there have just LOST themselves in it. They have all these stupid arguments, "worthy" "respected" members ganging up like a pack of chavs and lynching people who dare to challenge their authoritaw.
HOWEVER - many of the forums that I have visited who've had a "serious discussion" area for heady debates about life, the universe, and everything, have done really well with it. And I think we could do with something like that. Mainly because all our serious discussions (or at least most of them) tend to go off topic quickly, because the whole thing isn't taken seriously enough. If we had a place where the rules were much stricter, we could hold serious and lengthy debates in an malicious-argument free way (outlaw flaming/character attacks) without risk of jokers taking it off topic and ruining things for everyone else.
