Post suggestions on what changes to make to the site

Personally, I'd like to see reputation and thread ratings removed.  Features like that only turn forums into popularity contests.  It's just like Reddit updoots and downdoots.

I second this.

Also, what do you guys think about a verification system to become a registered member? Someone has been passing around the idea of verifying via Reddit PM. Personally, I think verification would be a good idea, but I think there are more ways we can filter out brigaders than just Reddit PM.
