<What about basing it on degree of participation? Like a frequent flier program? That would take into account length of participation, since the longer someone's here, the more they
participate. And it would be an incentive to participate. Yes, new people would be added. At least as long as there weren't too many old-timers!>

Under that criteria, bobb and some other other annoying (destructive) people who posted non-stop would be rewarded for flooding the board. I would rather see the longevity of posters be taken into consideration rather the number of posts. On a good (bad?) day someone going though a manic phrase could score about twenty posts toward frequent poster status. Well, anyone could.
Personally, I rather see the focus go back to a reunion board: sounds less offensive and non-competitive with the other boards. And maybe even an open one. (Why would new people want to go to a reunion?)
