160. It would be nice if...
We had a control that we could categorize posts for archiving so that the categor(y/ies) voted on is where the post belongs in a browse-able archive.

In general, there seem to be a lot of what I would consider misplaced posts (with my content management hat on, I'd rather say mis-categorized) such that when you search later you have to search all the categories, increasing the load on the search engine.

Another thing I would like to be able to do is "go under the bridge with the trolls". It would be cool (maybe as a donor-feature) to be able to turn on deleted posts. The problem is keeping people from starting new threads to discuss how moranic the poster was :evilgrin: So I guess that's out.

Another thing that I would appreciate is a comment emailed to the poster when a post is deleted explaining the infraction. I'm probably an insensitive bastard, but I've had a couple deletes that I don't know why. I'd like to know what rule I violated if it happens again.

Skinner, you run an incredible site. You will not pay for drinks if I'm in a bar with you.
