Don't how much of a consideration this is, but how much rotation would we get on the frontpage if we restriceted the posts that could be frontpaged? It's nice to log in every day and get a different smathering of posts instantly to start mulling over before going into newest nodes and delving a little deeper.

The rotation we have now isn't always that speedy in itself, so to restrict that more, even though it would mean better quality posts on the front page (which probably has stock with new members who could look at the front page as a calling card for what type of place this is) i'm not certain that i'm all for slowing that rotation if it is considerable.

If this restriction wouldn't change that rotation much at all, then it seems a very good idea. Either way, ++ for a good suggestion =)

Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!

Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.

Please read these before you post! —
