FuturePriest, name the 10 people who should be Church Militant.

Go.

I didn't mean to offend. I just don't think it's seen as much of a priority right now, and I understand that. I simply think some people that have deserved it for a long time haven't been noticed.

But if you insist, here are my completely non-critical and non-judgmental thoughts about it. I want to stress this a million times over because knowing me it will come out the wrong way.

For instance, Slappo, Trisha, TheresaThoma, Arfink, EmilyAnn, Pax-et-bonum, MeteorShower, all of the others I originally thought of are relatively new so I understand waiting to make sure about them, but why not these? As an example, I joined here October 20 2011. FutureCarmeliteClaire joined on October 21, 2011, and if you completed Kindergarten, you'll know that's one day after me. She has been a Church Militant since a little less than a month that she got here. I'm not complaining, she completely deserves it. But why not some of the people above who have been here literally for years that have been ignored? For a long time I thought it had nothing to do with being 100% in line with Church teaching and that it was a popularity contest for these reasons above. If you're liked, you get in. I know now this is not the case, but I simply want to know why these people have been ignored.

So the Lame board will be coming back?

Unconstructive speaking with an unpleasant disposition. Change is scary!

I said the others were relatively new, but how about Penguin, DiscerningCatholic, and emmaberry?

She is. She's discerning a Religious vocation.

Not sure about this one (although it has possibilities, dUSt, and thanks for coming up with new and innovative things for us...!)

There are times when the 'best' answer is the funniest, or the most outrageous, and other times it is the most 'charitable' or most 'theologically correct' or just all of the above. I wouldn't have a clue how to figure out how to choose the 'best' response to some of CatherineM's posts... or those in VS regarding some of the more controvercial answers.... I can definitely see times when I would want to NOT have the feature lurking around....

Maybe it should be an option for the OP to put it on or remove it from post when s/he wants to get that feature working/not working?

Any chance of something like those posts being a different color or different type so we would know that THIS is one of those times when we want to focus on good info versus good clean Phatmass Phun?

Then don't participate. Not everyone is as limited as you.

I have changed my mind. I think only Winchester should be allowed to vote on best answer.

Math is an oppressive construct that the capitalist uses to burden the working man.

I think that oppression is a capitalist construct designed to distract idealistic young revolutionaries from the [i]real[/i] oppressive structures built into modern society.

I can see everyone's concerns. I think I may just make the feature available to every board, keep it a moderator-only feature, and then only apply it in cases where the original post was a question, and a really good, definitive answer has gotten lost in the thread.

I think this is a good idea
