Has it been considered to limit the Member's Only section to include just Active Members?
It is my understanding that the purpose of Active Membership is to weed out psychopaths who could afford 100/200 USD and to prevent any legal or social problems with an underage person coming in contact with adult Members.
I see these all as valid concerns as far as this message board goes. Limiting access further would nip any of these problems in the butt.
On the other hand, there would be a loss of some valued Members (in particular, me

) and there would be others who would apply for Active Membership simply to indulge in this semi-passive medium.
I'm up for any arguments either way.
