        Facebook has a blocking feature that completely blocks out people you don't want to see, ever. I know we have a similar feature here but some people have told me it doesn't completely block a person like the FB version does.

        Also, I think it's kind'a ridiculous that words like a-s-s, p-i-s-s and F-U are blocked. No one can type Kung-** but I can type F.U. and it comes thru. The F-word is worse by far yet the other words are blocked instead? That's something you could even fix now but when you upgrade does it make sense to do it this way?

              I would like to see us start a customs museum like the one linked here. It would be a great way to reference different characters as well as a place to "display" our works of art in a very organized manner. Clubhouse Model Gallery and Model Museum

                That's more in line with the creation of a website than a forum itself, however, there may be an ability for members to create "Customs Blogs" where they can showcase their work. Can't promise anything yet but it may happen.

                    No worries, there may be something we can do on that end.

                      It's 'cos you're Belgium. I read somewhere you guys all shoot lasers out of your eyes, and are vampires.

                          And to be clear - I'm only an RPF member to look for source photos for Mego projects.

                          It would have to be renamed... Something reflecting culinary love letters and international beers.

                              Not you. Currently I don't block anyone but I'm compiling a short list of people who are begging for it. At Mego Meet I spoke to a person who said the feature we currently use still indicates that blocked person is posting. I think the FB block is better as both parties can't see each other.

                                More space for private messages (text storage and bandwidth can't be that great)

                                On that note, personally I think we could (and possibly should) reduce or eliminate hosting of images. They take up storage and bandwidth when other sites like photobucket are provided for free and reduce both, eliminating cost. They often provide IMG codes that are easily copy and pasted from the site for integration into posts. It would be interesting to know how much we pay for image storage and bandwidth unneccesarily. I know this isn't popular with some members, but we raise a lot of money for museum maintenance, and it would be prudent to analyze unneeded costs.
