You could invert the logic. Automatically FP posts say 4 hours after they were posted if they haven't been

[X] Don't front-page,

though this would probably cause as many problems as it might fix.

Examine what is said, not who speaks.
1) When a distinguished but elderly scientist states that something is possible, he is almost certainly right. When he states that something is impossible, he is very probably wrong.
2) The only way of discovering the limits of the possible is to venture a little way past them into the impossible
3) Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
