Make Accessing The BT Invite Section By Invitation Only

Anyway, how could you trade an invite to the invite section.

Someone would have to have their 100 (proper) posts, then be invited by someone already in the section. That person would then be (at least in part) responsible for them. That would encourage people to invite others they had gotten to know.

And also

Don't let just anyone issue invites.

TBH I'd immediately sell my FST account on ebay if they brought this in. There I said it.

I doubt that being responsible for invitees' behaviour would make much difference.
When I was modding there, there were so many people squealing like a stuck pig cos someone they'd invited had fucked them over by being an arsehole on that tracker; we'd have to try and sort something out when they could have saved themselves the trouble by not being a twat and being more careful with their bt invites.
The BT section is jam packed with fucking idiots with no concept of possible recriminations of their actions.

They would understand it perfectly well when you banned them along with the person they invited.

Then joined again, had to make another 100 (proper) posts and wait another month to get in the BT section. Then find someone to invite them into the section they wanted to be in all along.
