    Interesting.

    What about not allowing only specific posters to reply? Is this something that may be available in the future?

    I can already see some pros starting threads taking shots at non pros that cannot post in the thread and defend themselves.

    this is going to get good.

    Quixotic.......... Non pros are often times the least disciplined posters..... Some pros will manipulate this in non pro threads..... Non pros will start 1-3 threads to reply to the insult in the locked thread...or even in a sports thread topic... Non pros will still wanna give their two cents.... Can't merge topics now.... I feel bad for the mods for this experiment...... By the way can all black posters just bd given pro status as reparations

    Can we edit threads already made so we can change it to this feature?

    awful idea. It's discrimination. I'm not making another post here ever except for trying to contribute in other ways. So wrong, so unjustifiable.

    I would not call it discrimination. It will reduce the flow of info, but SBR is trying to push their Pro program. Don't see anything wrong with that.

    hahaha that is kinda cool/funny/interesting.

    It's just a way for SBR to add a perk to being a pro, rather than non-pro. Plus, it adds exclusivity!!!!!!

    The option is available for Pros to choose if that is their preference or by default all threads are open to everyone.

    Pro's have been asking for their own area or forum for a long time. This is a compromise and a reasonable one. They support the site and they should be allowed to include or exclude non Pros in the replies to their discussions.
