I would like to comment on the access to the Black Project forum. I've been with NDolphin/NDose/GT longer than most, as long as some, and not as long as a small few. And to have a flawed reputation system decide who has access to a forum is perhaps the single most ignorant thing done in all the time I've been with this website. And to me it's a Oxi Moron, because I hate 'Elite Only' forums. It only devides the members of the forums further from each other. But just because I hate it, doesn't mean I don't want access to it. I'll probably never post in there, and yet I'm frustrated by that fact that I couldn't.

Some of you could say "you're only 100 points from having access so quit your whining." But I don't feel I should have to. It's a matter of principle. And one that I feel has been overlooked.
I've been around almost as long as you have at the above mentioned forums and have yet to access the oh-so-elusive "Black Project". I remember that I was close one time. Indeed I was, but then we tanked the DBLN system and in came reputation. I remain to this day, after being associated with these people for upwards of 5 years just out of reach of the inner circle.

Come to think of it, this reminds me a lot of my real social life as well. Interesting...
