If there was another choice in the 'new thread' box..(like where the BS is)..so that it could be designated 'temp'..and terminated after 'x' long..(if the originator could archive any thread he or she started WITH the temp designation...so it could be read, but not extended...) We can archive our PMs now...just an idea...
(and, I think, you can still get the forum with a 'no BS' option) http://www.mudcat.org/threadsnot.cfm?Title=BS
