    Kinda collective? I came up with a bunch of the stuff it says.

    I feel like there's a pun with "Golden Edict" and "goose who laid the golden egg" but it's just not coming together

    What dream-level functionality do you wish the forums had? I'm talking something that realistically can't be done or is too difficult to do with code.

    A perfect spam filter would be pretty neat.

    There was a feature suggested once that was so diabolical that I had to turn it down on moral grounds. Would have been great though.

    This one's been hitting me the last couple days...

    Are Vanilla forums connected in such a way that you could theoretically do single sign on? Like, say, our PA login would work at some other website? I know that Facebook and Google login services are a thing, and I think WordPress and a couple other social media tools do similar.. but with Vanilla being a hosted, multi-tenant environment, I wasn't sure if that was feasible, or even desirable.

    We can do a bunch of different SSO things, and may do at some point.

    It was good! Fighting was only ok and could have done with a lot of work, but overall I really liked it.

    That's a super broad question, so it's difficult to answer. We plan to be as inclusive to non-douchebags as we can be.

    Er, I meant that in the sense that he doesn't have a lot of new updates. I think all of them are pre-2005.

    Thanks for the answer Tube. I remember you mentioning that you were going to review current policies to see if there was room for improvements on this area. Just wondered if you found any yet.

    It's probably going to be more about the implementation of existing policies than any large changes to them. We have a good framework, but implementation is always going to be imperfect. We can work to make it as good as possible.

    Some people will only feel that we're fully inclusive if we allow them to yell and scream and act like douchebags. We don't plan on improving our inclusivity to douchebags, no matter what other groups they may be a part of.

    The sun actually doesn't have a scientific name.

    Sol is just the latin word for the sun.
