I like our current 'Open Borders' policy, strangely enough. It's not that I object to letting just ANYbody join (kinda LIKE that aspect, actually). It's just maybe I wish we could all drop the n00b offenders (y'all know of my famously-low tolerance by now, I'm sure

) into a virtual Waring blender and set it to 'Annihilate', so we can all enjoy a FrootLoop Smoothie first thing in the morning.
I suppose we have to be ready to absorb the irritations. I'll try harder to do that myself. Oh, I'll still wield the N00b Hammer with the ruthlessness that I always have, but instead of putting up the razor wire and minefields, I guess we'll just deal with it, and let the established members have some fun with the chew toys. (Hey, who was it that introduced that phrase, anyway? I really like it.

)
